Jonga ngale, nam nd'jonge le...(lah lah lah lah)
Yin lent'unje, yin lent'undona
Yin le ntliziyo igcwel'umoya
Yin lent'unje, yin lent'undona
Tyhin le ntliziyo indenz'intloni
Your tears, your fears, your dreams
Your tears, your pain, your care
Yin lent'unje, yin lent'undona
Yin le ntliziyo igcwel'umoya
MORE INFORMATION
Multiple award-winning Zonke Dikana is the creative mastermind behind some of Mzansi’s biggest hits. Her work as a songwriter spans the musical spectrum, including compositions for artists ranging from Tsepo Tshola to Afropop fave Winnie Khumalo. As a collaborator, she’s sung for, and alongside, the likes of spiritual healers like Thandiswa Mazwai and globetrotting exports à la Black Coffee. But it’s as producer that this Port Elizabeth-born, Jozi-based creator remains unacknowledged. Work of Heart, her fourth and arguably biggest body of work thus far, has her life force pumping through it. It’s evident when listening to Zonke’s music that this is a musician aware of the magnitude of responsibility she carries. She’s tapped into the might of Mhlongo, Makeba and Fassie to advance a musical cause that is true to self and essential, yet frequently overlooked.
