Siyanibingelela

Everybody I know
Has a special way to say "hello"
To say "hello", say "hello"
Here's a Zulu greeting
That I heard in Africa
It's a word from Africa

Siyanibingelela
Siyanibingelela
Siyanibingelela, eyo!

Every greeting I hear
Is like a song from the heart
It's a song from the heart
And it's a wonderful way
To make new friends everyday
To meet new friends everyday
