Ke Moeti, Kele Tseleng
I am A Traveler, I Am On The Road
1. Ke moeti, ke le tseleng, Ke feta ke tsamaya, Leha tsela e le bothateng, Ke lebile hae. Fifi lona le ka ba teng, Nka 'na ka tsieleha; Ana nka belaela ke'ng? Ke lebile hae.
2. Mona ke 'musong wa dira, Makhotla a ntikile, A rora; ke tswela pele, Ke lebile hae. Mohlomong ke fela pelo, ke ya imelwa, ke ya lela; Leha ho le hotshot-hotsho, Ke lebile hae.
3. Ke melekong ka matsatsi, Ke hlora, ke teneha, Ke mpa ke sa qopheletse, Ke lebile hae. Leha tlala e mpolaya, Ke tsoile ditlhabela, Ke khathala, ke nyediswa, Ke lebile hae.
4. O teng ya ntlosang bodutu, Ya ntjarelang bothata; Ha ke mong, ken a le Jesu, Ke lebile hae. Wa mpoloka, wa nqobela, O mphemisa maraba; Ka khotso ke ntse ke fenya, Ke lebile hae.
5. Di se di tla ba morao Tsa tsela, tsa kajeno, Mahloko le matshoenyeho, Ke ya fihla hae. Jo, thabo e tla ba kaakang, Ha ke bona Morena, E le yena ya ntlhapisang, Ke fihlile hae.
English translation
1. I am a traveler, I am on the road, I pass by, I journey on, Even though the road is difficult, I am heading home. Though darkness may be present, I may be troubled; Why should I worry? I am heading home.
2. Here I am in the kingdom of enemies, Armies surround me, They roar; I press on, I am heading home. Perhaps I lose heart, I am burdened, I cry; Even though it is dark and gloomy, I am heading home.
3. I am in trials every day, I suffer, I am troubled, I do not give up, I am heading home. Even if hunger kills me, I have crossed the valleys, I am weary, I am despised, I am heading home.
4. There is One who removes loneliness, Who helps me in trouble; I am not alone, I have Jesus, I am heading home. He protects me, He defends me, He saves me from traps; With peace I keep overcoming, I am heading home.
5. Soon all will be behind me, The things of the road, of today, Troubles and worries, I will arrive home. Oh, what joy it will be, When I see the Lord, The One who cleansed me, I have arrived home.
