KE LEKILE (I HAVE TRIED) - POEM

KE LEKILE

Ga nka didimala, ke raya ke didimalela ruri

Itseng gore ke lekile.

Modimo o mphile botshelo

Ka bo tshela, ka bo tshela ke se nosi

Well, I didn't know who I was suppose to live with and whom not to... 

I didn't know who I was suppose to love and whom I was not suppose to...

I loved everybody who came my way

As the heart just got generous with everyone

Le fa ke gobala, ke tsena mo diphatseng

Pelo e ne e sa utlwelele, e ne e sa lape

Ya tswelela e ntse e rata, e tshepha,

E kgatlhala....

E robegile ga ntsi ntsi, ya tsoswa ke ba booki

Mme ya seke e latlhe mosesele e le wa yone

Ya tswelela e ntse e rata, ya kgatlhala, ya tshepha

Tota ke lekile

Ke lekile go nna tsala ya boamaruri

Ke retletse

Bantule matsogong jaaka metsi baratiwa baaka ntse ke barata

Ke ipotsa ke ba diretse eng se segolo se se kakeng sa tlhoka tshwarelo ka nna ke nna ke ba tshwarela ka bongwe ka bongwe

But i fail to understand where the loyalty stands on the other side as it seems to be easy on them to let go just like that as if I never existed, as if I never mattered. 

Bona, ga ke ka didimala, go didimala ga bofelo

Itseng gore ke lekile

Ke lekile gorata jaaka Modimo a rile

Rata mongwe ka wena jaaka o ithata

Mme ke retletse

Ke bona ditsala di mphuaganya, marato a sa bereke, badiri go sena kagiso

Ke a gamarega kare mmoloki

Ke mang ke tshwanetseng ka tshela le ene

Ke sala ka lorato lame le phuagantswe mo phefong

Le sa amogelwe, aa ga ke itse gorata ne mmabaledi?

Ke rate mang go sena yo o amogelang rato lame ramasedi?

Pelo yame e tshela ka dithabi tsa go phuaganngwa

Kana ke nna ke sa itseng gorata gongwe gona le thulaganyo e ntodileng ke diilwe ke go bapala morogo

I mean, well I have some but a lover in me wonder why people come in my life and go?

Why create a bond, build a family and walk away as if nothing happened?

I try, I try every day to give my best but seems my best ain't enough, ain't the best to them

People go... And it hurts every time they leave.

It hurts, my friends it hurts, lovers it hurts.

Why do you choose to leave?

Is the situation way too big to be resolved?

Ain't we adults to talk things out?

I loved you guys. Every relationship I had with everyone, I loved you guys.

Ga nka seke ke tsoge, ka robala, ka robalela ruri, itseng gore KE LEKILE.

Ke lekile go lerata, ke paletswe.

Ke lekile go le itumedisa, ke paletswe.

Ke lekile go le ema nokeng, ke paletswe.

Ke lekile go le itshwarela, ke a leka.
