It wasn't the valley of death, I was walking in   It was the valley of confusion for many years   Different religions, different beliefs   Undermining my culture   Looking down upon my tradition   Making fun of my language   Telling my children, they have no God   Finally I can tell them about,   Shembe is the way      Chorus   Oh SHEMBE thank you for showing us the way.   Shembe nobunazaretha.      Oh SHEMBE thank you for healing my people.   Shembe nobunazaretha.      Shemebe is the way.      I hear them shoulting Amen,   At the top of the mountain   I hear them shouting Uyingcwele   At the top of the mountain.   No one will undermine my religion   No one will undermine my culture anymore,   Cause God sent him from above, to be with the people.   Bring them back to what is their own   Take them back to the ways Of our forefathers.      Finally I can tell generations and generations    That Shembe is the way      Chorus   Oh Shemebe THANK YOU FOR SHOWING US THE WAY.   Shembe Nobunazaretha.
