Are You Ready?

Hawu! bheka mama! oye!

Hamb'ugadile!	     (be alert and be on guard)

I feel a river in flood in my veins

I can feel your love in my brain

It wants to dance my life

Through a hurricane

Dance the mamba across

The oshakati plain



Chorus:

Hamb'ugadile mntanami!	 (be alert and be on guard my child)

The world has crocodile eyes

And if you dance the

Oshakati mamba

Remember to cross yourself twice --

Are you ready



Hawu! bheka mama! oye!

Hamb'ugadile!		  (be alert and be on guard)

I need to sail away, escape this cage

I can see the sky and the milky way

Be my lover tonight, show me the wisdom of life

Dance the mamba, across the oshakati night



Hamb'ugadile mntanami!   (be alert and be on guard my child)

The world has crocodile eyes

And if you dance the

Oshakati mamba

Remember to cross yourself twice --

Are you ready

And if you dance the

Oshakati mamba

You'll be dancing on desert air

Like a seagull searching for the ocean

Like a lover playing solitaire
