- Desperado, kutheni ungabuyeli ezingqondweni?
Ubukhe ngaphandle kwezicingo ze-ridin ixesha elide ngoku
Owu, unzima
Kodwa ndiyazi ukuba unezizathu zakho
Ezi zinto zilungile kuwe
Ngaba unokukwenzakalisa ngandlela thile
Musa ukuzoba uKumkanikazi weDayimani, mfana
Uya kukubetha ukuba unako
Uyazi ukuba uKumkanikazi weentliziyo uhlala ekubheja kwakho
Ngoku, kubonakala kum njengezinto ezintle
Kubekwe phezu kwetafile yakho
Kodwa ufuna kuphela ezo ungenakufumana
Desperado, oh, awuzukufumana mncinci
Intlungu yakho kunye nendlala yakho, ziyakuqhubela ekhaya
Inkululeko, oh inkululeko, kulungile ke ngabantu abathile abathetha '
Intolongo yakho ihamba kulo mhlaba uwedwa
Ngaba iinyawo zakho azibandi ngexesha lasebusika?
Isibhakabhaka asiyi kubakho likhephu kwaye ilanga aliyi kukhanya
Kunzima ukuxelela ixesha lobusuku ukusuka emini
Ulahlekile 'konke ukuphakama kwakho kunye nokuhla
Ayisihlekisi indlela iimvakalelo ezihamba ngayo?
Desperado, kutheni ungabuyeli ezingqondweni?
Yihla kwiingcingo zakho, vula isango
Kungaba yimvula, kodwa kukho umnyama ngaphezulu kwakho
Kungcono uvumele umntu akuthande (vumela umntu akuthande)
Kungcono uvumele umntu akuthande
Ngaphambi kokuba kuhlwe kakhulu
