Being a Xhosa Woman

I am proud of who I am While respecting other cultures I honour my womanhood While I take pride in my manhood Understanding it is to go through it As I am comfortable in my own skin Being inspired by the culture May the ancestors be awakened As I am raised in a Christian environment Being mesmerised by faith May the holy spirit fall on me As I am about to raise the spear in the air Being confident in my alignment May the whole nation know Appreciating my blessings I am honoured of who I have become While being thankful to the challenges and struggles I cherish those sweet and sour memories While I praise my enemies To know it is to go through it
