Lapho usumdala

Ngubani ophuphe ukuthi ubuhle budlula njengephupho?

Ngubani ophuphe ukuthi ubuhle budlula njengephupho?
Kulezi zindebe ezibomvu, ngakho konke ukuziqhenya kwabo okukhathele,
sekudabukisa kakhulu, ngakho-ke akumangalisi,
UTroy usishiye ngesibani somngcwabo nonodlame,
futhi amadodana ka-Usna asilahlile.

Siyavela, futhi umhlaba omatasa ugibela nathi
Phakathi kwemiphefumulo yabantu, abathi avalelise futhi badele indawo yabo
njengamanzi aphaphathekile emjahweni wawo obandayo;
Ngaphansi kwezinkanyezi ezidlulayo, amagwebu avela esibhakabhakeni,

Ubuhle benza umhlaba waba yindlela enotshani
ukuze Abeke izinyawo zakhe ezizulazulayo.

Uyabukhumbula ubuhle obukhohliwe

Ngokukuzungeza ezandleni zami,
Ngibambelela enhliziyweni yami lobo buhle
ukuthi kudala wanyamalala emhlabeni:
setha imiqhele eyaphonswa amakhosi
Emithonjeni yesipoki, amabutho abalekayo;
izindaba zothando ezelukwe ngemicu kasilika
ngabesifazane abaphuphayo, ezindwangu
owondla inundu lokubulala:
ama-rose wezikhathi ezilahlekile,
ukuthi izintokazi zaluka ezinweleni zazo;
iminduze ebandayo yemvula ebithwalwa izintombi
ngamaphaseji angcwele afiphele,
lapho kwavela khona inkungu yempepho
nokuthi uNkulunkulu kuphela owayecabanga:
kusukela esifubeni esiphaphathekile, isandla esibambezelekile,
beza kithi bevela kwamanye amazwe besinda ngobuthongo.
Futhi lapho ububula phakathi kokuqabulana
Ngiyezwa uBuhle omhlophe naye uyabubula
ngalelo hora lapho konke
kufanele udliwe njengamazolo.
Kepha ilangabi phezu kwelangabi nomgodi onganamkhawulo kwalasha,
nesihlalo sobukhosi esihlalweni sobukhosi nengxenye emaphusheni,
beka izinkemba zabo emadolweni abo ensimbi,
ngokudabukisayo bakhumbula imfihlakalo enkulu enesizungu.

Uthando lokuqala

Noma kwakondliwa njengenyanga ezulazulayo,

wahamba kancane, wabomvu kancane,
futhi wangimisa,
ngize ngize ngicabange ukuthi umzimba wakhe
yayinenhliziyo ephilayo, yomuntu.

Kepha selokhu isandla sami sayithinta
ngathola inhliziyo yetshe,
Ngazama izinto eziningi
futhi akekho noyedwa owasebenza,
kwazise uyahlanya
isandla esihamba enyangeni.

Wamomotheka futhi wangiguqula,
Ngaba namandla
ngikhuluma ngedwa, ngincoma ngodwa,
ngomqondo ophelele
ukuthi ukujikeleza kwezinkanyezi kwezulu
Lapho inyanga izula

Nikeza othandekayo wakho amavesi ambalwa 

Qinisa izinwele zakho ngomuthi wegolide,
bese ucosha lawo ma-braids angama-vagrant.
Ngicele inhliziyo yami ukuthi ngenze la mavesi amabi:
wayesebenza kuzo usuku nosuku
isakhiwo sobuhle esidabukisayo
ngezinsalela zezimpi ezivela kwezinye izikhathi.

Ngokuphakamisa nje iparele esandleni sakho,
bopha izinwele zakho ezinde ububule,
izinhliziyo zamadoda ziyashaya futhi zishe;
futhi igwebu linjengekhandlela esihlabathini esivulekile
nezinkanyezi ezikhuphula isibhakabhaka ngamazolo,
baphila kuphela ukukhanyisela izinyawo zakho ezidlulayo.

Iwayini lingena emlonyeni 

Iwayini lingena emlonyeni
Futhi uthando lungena emehlweni;
Yilokhu kuphela esikwaziyo ngempela
Ngaphambi kokuguga nokufa.
Le yindlela engiletha ngayo ingilazi emlonyeni wami,
Futhi ngiyakubuka, futhi ngiyahefuzela.
