[Shona] What Remains

Lyrics

[Intro – Soft Piano, Strings, Distant Choir]

Hmmmm...

Tisati taziva mazita edu...

Tisati tataura mazwi edu ekutanga...

Tisati tave nemhope dzedu...

Takapiwa chipo...

Nguva shoma.

Nemukana wekuda.

[Verse 1]

Tinouya semambakwedza,
Zvinyoronyoro kubata pasi,
Kufema kuchiva kurova kwemoyo,
Hupenyu huchiziva kukosha kwahwo.

Tinounganidza nguva nenhoroondo,
Tinozvifundisa kuseka nekuchema,
Tinobata maoko evasina kuzivana,
Vova chikonzero chei.

Vamwe vanogara mwaka minenge mizhinji,
Vamwe nzendo dzinonzwa dzakapfupi,
Asi mweya wese unotibata
Unosiya chimwe chinhu pasi.

[Pre-Chorus]

Makore anogona kupfuura semasango,
Mazuva anogona kunyangarika,

Asi rudo runoramba ruchinyora nyaya
Kureba kwehusiku.

[Chorus]

🌍 Hapana rudo rwakarasika,
Hapana chakapihwa chinonyangarika.

Kuseka kwese,
Chidzidzo chese,
Zvinorarama kupfuura makore anopfuura.

Kunyangwe maoko edu angapatsana rimwe zuva,
Nenzwi redu rigonyangarika,

Rudo rinoramba richifamba pasi
Mumavambo atakabata nekuziva.

🌍 Hapana rudo rwakarasika,
Kwete hope,
Kwete rwiyo.

Nekuti moyo unorangarira nokusingaperi
Zvatakatakura nemweya.

[Verse 2]

Inzwi ramai,
Uchenjeri hwababa,
Kuseka kwemushamwari wepedyo,

Zvinhu zvidiki zvatakafunga kuti zvakajairika
Zvinofamba nemakiromita ese.

Chigaro chisina munhu chinogona kubata nyaya,
Mufananidzo unogona kutaura,

Uye kumwe muhupenyu hwemumwe
Rudo rwatakapa richiri kufema.

Kune mutsa wese wakagovaniswa,
Kutakura mutoro kwese kwakabatsira,

Zvinova chiedza mukati memumwe
Kureba kwekunge tave kure.

[Pre-Chorus]

Nyeredzi dzinoramba dzichipenya mushure mekudoka,
Gungwa rinoramba richinziya mushure memafungu,

Uye rudo runoramba ruchitsvaga nzira dzekurarama
Kumhiri kwenyika.

[Chorus]

🌍 Hapana rudo rwakarasika,
Hapana chakapihwa chinonyangarika.

Kuseka kwese,
Chidzidzo chese,
Zvinorarama kupfuura makore anopfuura.

Kunyangwe maoko edu angapatsana rimwe zuva,
Nenzwi redu rigonyangarika,

Rudo rinoramba richifamba pasi
Mumavambo atakabata nekuziva.

🌍 Hapana rudo rwakarasika,
Kwete hope,
Kwete rwiyo.

Nekuti moyo unorangarira nokusingaperi
Zvatakatakura nemweya.

[Bridge – Choir Rising]

Pamwe hupenyu nerufu hazvisi zvakasiyana.

Pamwe zvitsauko
Munyaya yakanaka.

Imwe inotidzidzisa kusvika.

Imwe inotidzidzisa kuregedza.

Uye pakati pavo...

Tinopiwa mukana

Wekuda kwazvo.

Kukanganwira zvakasununguka.

Kusimudza mumwe mweya.

Kusiya nyika ichipenya kupfuura zvataigona.

Nekuti zvatinopa murudo

Hazvibvi nesu.

[Final Chorus – Full Choir]

🌍 Hapana rudo rwakarasika,
Hapana chakapihwa chinonyangarika.

Kuseka kwese,
Chidzidzo chese,
Zvinorarama kupfuura makore anopfuura.

Hope dzese dzatakabatsira kuvhura,
Maoko ese atakabata zvakasimba,

Zvinorarama kupfuura muganhu wekuenda
Uye zvinotakura isu.

🌍 Hapana rudo rwakarasika,
Kwete hope,
Kwete rwiyo.

Nekuti moyo unorangarira nokusingaperi
Zvatakatakura nemweya.

Uye hupenyu hwese hwatakabata nemutsa
Hunoramba huchitichengeta.

[Outro – Piano & Choir Fade]

Rimwe zuva...

Mumwe munhu achataura zita rako.

Mumwe munhu acharangarira kuseka kwako.

Mumwe munhu achaendesa ushingi hwako.

Mumwe munhu achapfuura mutsa wako.

Uye kumwe...

Mumoyo wawakabatsira kuporesa...

Chikamu chako chichiri kurarama.

Nekuti rudo haruna kudzidza kufa.

Hmmmm...
