Here are the lyrics in siSwati, followed by their English translation:


“Wasiyala Baha’u’llah watsi lulwini silucaphele. Nconota kubinza futsi ukhweshe, enkhulumeni lengelutfo. Wasiyala Baha’u’llah watsi lulwini silucaphele. Mawukhuluma kwece kungushevu, lobulalako lobhubhisako. Wasiyala Baha’u’llah watsi lulwini silucaphele. Emandla emlilo asheshe aphele, keph’elulwimi alikhulu lemnyaka. Wasiyala Baha’u’llah watsi lulwini silucaphele. Ngoba lulwimi lungumlilo, lobobotsako locotfulako.” - Baha’u’llah


English:

[Baha’u’llah admonished us to be cautious of the tongue.]

 “...observe silence and refrain from idle talk. For the tongue is a smoldering fire, and excess of speech a deadly poison.”

“The force of the former lasteth but for a time, whilst the effects of the latter endureth a century.”

“Material fire consumeth the body, whereas the fire of the tongue devoureth both heart and soul."

- Baha’u’llah

"Wasiyala (He Commanded Us)" by the Eswatini Baha'i Choir

We have these powers
To face the tears and fears we meet
We have these talents
And have these hopes and dreams to reach
I pray for courage
I pray for faith
Make every effort
Show me the way
Just hold my hand
Help me to see
These confirmations
That surround me

I’m tired of thinking about myself
I see the good in people, they mean well
I can’t find the words to explore the truth
But service serves as more than proof
Everyone’s kindness shines through
And I come to find it defines you
Now I see each person’s qualities
And I start to believe in equality
Can I play a part in progress?
And be patient with the process
Why does love give way to fear?
Why doesn’t difference draw us near?
I call on strength and call on courage
See confirmations as we flourish
Let me choose a noble goal, make every
effort to grow my soul

We have these powers
To face the tears and fears we meet
We have these talents
And have these hopes and dreams to reach
I pray for courage
I pray for faith
Make every effort
Show me the way
Just hold my hand
Help me to see
These confirmations
That surround me

What lead to words, that were so unkind
She's got a pure heart, and a brilliant mind.
Nur and I, we have always been close
Had me on track, when I needed it most
But now she's hanging out, with the girls
next door
Our friendship isn't what, it was before
She has said words, that have caused me pain
I don’t know what I've done to deserve this change.
I gotta decide, what I need do to
Do I lose a friend, or a friend pursue?
I pray to God, please give me a clue
So I follow the path, that I know is true
Prayers inspire me, to do my part
I reach out to her, with an open heart
As we speak, I look into her eyes
The sun of friendship, begins to rise.

Rise, oh rise up 
Rise, oh rise up 
Rise, oh rise up 
Rise, oh rise up 
Rise, oh rise up 
Rise, oh rise up 
Rise, oh rise up 
Rise, oh rise up 

We have these powers
To face the tears and fears
We have these talents
And have these hopes and dreams

I pray for courage
I pray for faith
Make every effort
Show me the way
Just hold my hand
Help me to see
These confirmations
That surround me
I pray for courage
I pray for faith
Make every effort
Show me the way
Just hold my hand
Help me to see
These confirmations
That surround me

Show me the way
Show me the way
Show me the way
Show me the way
Show me the way
Show me the way
Show me the way
Show me the way

Show Me The Way
