about

The word "Umkhetsho" is a Xhosa direct translation of the word "Catching" in English.
The song is basically about when you find yourself catching feelings for someone that you thought you wouldn't fall inlove with, be it your friend or a side dish it doesn't matter.

lyrics

Verse 1

See I never thought I would ever be inlove like this.
I used to think, I've got it all on lock and I would never fall.
But lomntwana lo ai, andazi undenze ntoni na yeah.
Cause all of this caught me by surprise, wandibetha ngo two feet.
Sayiqala lento ngathi siyadlala, but Ngoku.

Chorus

Ikhetshile ibhuda, ingacingelanga.
Ikhetshile idyan, ingacingelanga.
(Ngumkhetsho lowo, woh ngumkhetsho lowo)
Hayi ikhetshile ibhuda.
(Ngumkhetsho lowo, woooh ngumkhetsho lowo)
Hayi ikhetshile idyan ai.

Verse 2

Siding'uhlala sobabini baby and just talk, aaai.
Ubuluncinzo kum and I was your side dish but now.
I think I've crossed the line.
(Ndiyazibona ndiya fall-a)
Ewe ndiyazibona ndiya fall-a
(Sendingxamele ukujola)
So should we stop okanye siqhubeke.
Ngoba ndiyazibona ndiya fall-a

Chorus

Ikhetshile ibhuda, ingacingelanga.
Ikhetshile idyan, ingacingelanga.
(Ngumkhetsho lowo, woh ngumkhetsho lowo)
(Ngumkhetsho lowo, woooh ngumkhetsho lowo)
