ke Motau šemane ya go ja di wela
Ke Motau lesogana kgaah! Šateeh ka tsena
Ke mopulana wa moswati
Lesogana la go hloka nyatsi
Tšešu ditaola ke rile go dirutwa ka tsena mong'waseloko ka yo tsoma
Ba nswayile tsebe go kwa bonkgolo
Bare "sa Mošemane a se go itaola "
Ke go tšwa lesolo a tšama tšwela babo mokgola
A ke tšwe mokhi ke nne, tšwa maruping a kgoši Sekwai
Tlase tlase thabeng tša go kguma ka tswai
Bare go mpona ba ka sefokeng
Ba opa magoswi bare "Thobela Morena!
Se mpone bosonyana wa nnyatša
Sešu sereto ke serutile phatlalatša
Ke serutilwe go jewa molatša ka dinawa tša maisimane a go tšwa mošola
Ruri ka nnete di ntšwetše mohola
Nteseng ke ithweše dipataka
Ke di file ke yola Rakgolo pele mathomong bupi e sale lepotetšana.
I once lost and forgot my entire memory.
I didn't possess any ID anywhere on me,
so I searched for, found and had a quick chat with a priest.
We then both decided to call the police.
Just a little something about yours truly that I'm sure you didn't know.
I was admitted into the local hospital's psych ward, as Patient: John Doe.
If there's more about the above that you would like to know,
the web address below is where you should go.
