Esther Banda, my natural love, oh
From Shibuyunji Chipako to where I stand
Truevent Chimbilwa, I am your soldier
With deep respect, I hold your hand
No be boza, this love is true, oh
Natotela, Mayo, for loving me too
Esther Banda, my natural love, oh
From Shibuyunji Chipako to where I stand
Truevent Chimbilwa, I am your soldier
With deep respect, I hold your hand
No be boza, this love is true, oh
Natotela, Mayo, for loving me too
Muli shani, my queen? (ayy)
Direct from Kabwe Chindwin barracks, yoh
It is your soldier, Truevent (yoh)
This is for my Shibuyunji flower, Esther Banda
Listen close, mukwai
I stand at attention in Chindwin barracks tonight
Underneath the Kabwe stars, shining so bright
My boots are polished, my uniform is tight
But it is your love, Esther, that is my true light
Deep in Shibuyunji district, where you reside
In Chipako village, where my thoughts abide
No matter the distance, no matter the mile
I am marching to the rhythm of your beautiful smile
Truevent is here, standing strong for you
With maximum respect, everything is true
Esther Banda, my natural love, oh
From Shibuyunji Chipako to where I stand
Truevent Chimbilwa, I am your soldier
With deep respect, I hold your hand
No be boza, this love is true, oh
Natotela, Mayo, for loving me too
Esther Banda, my natural love, oh
From Shibuyunji Chipako to where I stand
Truevent Chimbilwa, I am your soldier
With deep respect, I hold your hand
No be boza, this love is true, oh
Natotela, Mayo, for loving me too
They say a soldier’s heart must be made of stone
But when I hear your voice, I am never alone
You show me natural love, sweet and so pure
This traditional respect makes our future secure
No fake promises, no boza in this place
Just the quiet dignity of your sweet embrace
Our heritage is strong, ifwe we are blessed
Of all the girls in Zambia, you are the best
From the Copperbelt down to the southern land
It is only Esther Banda who can hold my hand
Yoh, listen to the guitar play for you!
Esther Banda, my natural love, oh
From Shibuyunji Chipako to where I stand
Truevent Chimbilwa, I am your soldier
With deep respect, I hold your hand
No be boza, this love is true, oh
Natotela, Mayo, for loving me too
Esther Banda, my natural love, oh
From Shibuyunji Chipako to where I stand
Truevent Chimbilwa, I am your soldier
With deep respect, I hold your hand
No be boza, this love is true, oh
Natotela, Mayo, for loving me too
Kabwe is far, but my heart is right there
Chipako breeze blowing through your hair
I salute your love, I salute your grace
Can’t wait to hold you in a warm embrace
Truevent Chimbilwa will never let you down
I will make you the queen of our own town
Ayy, feel the Kalindula groove, mukwai!
We dance together, you and I
I bring you honor, I bring you my name
This is not a temporary street-boy game
It’s a lifetime promise, built on solid ground
Where respect and natural harmony are found
Esther Banda, the one who brings me peace
With you, all my worries and troubles cease
Natotela, Mayo, for the joy you bring
To my Shibuyunji queen, this is the song I sing
From the barracks to the village, let the music play
We are blessed today and every single day
Esther Banda, my natural love, oh
From Shibuyunji Chipako to where I stand
Truevent Chimbilwa, I am your soldier
With deep respect, I hold your hand
No be boza, this love is true, oh
Natotela, Mayo, for loving me too
Esther Banda, my natural love, oh
From Shibuyunji Chipako to where I stand
Truevent Chimbilwa, I am your soldier
With deep respect, I hold your hand
No be boza, this love is true, oh
Natotela, Mayo, for loving me too
Yoh, Truevent and Esther forever, yoh
No boza, only natural love (ayy)
From Kabwe Chindwin barracks to Shibuyunji
We salute this love (natotela, mukwai)
It is a beautiful thing, oh (yoh)
Marching to your heart, Esther Banda (ayy)
Dismissed!
