[00:01:37] Come closer my friend

[00:01:39] Here follows a long tale about where the trouble started

[00:01:42] I was raised by my father

[00:01:45] Who was bereaved at a young age by his true darling my mother

[00:01:52] Edith Nomvula Thomas Mahola

[00:02:42] There were three of us by my mother myself the second

[00:02:46] The middle child of my father Bhut' Doc Nceba Mahola

[00:02:48] Never did my father cry when they hid the body of the love of many years

[00:02:53] At Don Bosco Kwazakhele Four rooms

[00:02:58] With a dining room table

[00:03:00] In Port Elizabeth

[00:03:03] Neither did the three cry at the side of the grave

[00:03:13] Small hands throwing dust to dust not knowing the reason

[00:03:18] Tyhini na bethuna Sis' nono has left us Sis' nono has left us

[00:03:25] Hayini

[00:03:25] Never have we seen such a girl raised by a man.

[00:03:44] Dlamini

[00:03:48] Never have they seen such a girl raised by a man.

[00:03:54] Come closer my friend

[00:04:04] Here follows a long tale about where the trouble started
