Ndodemba Dzangu Ng'Ombe Poem by Wensy Mbirimi

Hohonwa dzeharabwa dzakati dzandimomotera
Gwiyo gwangova gwumwe semajesa mumushamvi
Topota here kwamupfiganebwe tisanhi Taona rako dzinde
Izvo deno mwene ndakaziva
Vana sorojena ndisakateerera
Dzangu ng'ombe handaizombodemba

Zvisinei revakuru shoko harivhikwi
Ndakarutanga gwiyo gwedzvetsva
mhatye pachangu chirauro ndokunyurura
dzimwe tsvimborume dzisati dzandisvinukira
kuvakarabwe sadombo sadza ndokunokumbira
ng'ombe pfumbamwe ndokutinhwa, kumafuro vodorisa
rusambo vakatetena majasi ndokusimira
asi ravo ruva mune rangu bindu rave shawi
mbariro dzisanhi dzave nechin'ai
dzangu ng'ombe ndanga ndodemba

charuveki gandiwa rose yovarimira
ravo budzi richingondipotsera makobvu namatete
mutuvi chero dzavo mbwa havachapi
youmai Sirika yosisa hodzeko dzozadzwa
ini vuno dzangu ng'ombe ndongodemba

Zurori Bhandomu makabaya
Yechityu, chiropa zvose nemakuru
Rwatata vakachapfanya venyu vazukuru
Wenyu ndobva kundoshandira
Yemanhanga hari ndonongedzerwa nekasiyamwa
Zvo mati ndowonekwa here rume guru pachoto
Hadyana neshambakodzi ndichikuchidzira moto
Zvokwadi ndodemba dzangu ng'ombe

Nhaka pamusasa pamunhondo zvaguma
Handingarambi ndogogoderwa
Mashambazhou kusvika rubvunza vaeni uchingopopoterwa
Zvodaro here idzo dzakaenda dzichikuma
Kurera mbwa fume yondiruma
Deno zvaibvira dzangu pfumbamwe ndanoreva
Ndarisa ndoga kumafuro egwiranenzara
Ravo budzi vadzorera mune ravo bindu
Mufaro kune tese todotamba ngororombe
Dzangove ndangarariro pandaidemba dzangu ng'ombe
