Hello everyone. I hope I didn't accidently post this twice. I'm new at this and am at the elementary states of learning Zulu on my own, so I have much to learn. Anyway, I have this song I'd love translated into zulu. In parentheses, I'm attempting to translate it myself. Can someone please give me the proper translation and let me know if I'm at least in the ball park? OK, so here's the song:

I want to be with you (ngifuna ukuba nawe)
in Your Presence (eni ukuhlalisana yacko)
I want to be with you (ngifuna ukuba nawe)
Face to face (ubuso ukubuso)
I want to be with you (ngifuna ukuba nawe)
in Your Presence (eni ukuhlalisana yacko)
In the manifested presence (eniveza ukuhlalisana amaNkosi)

Many thanks in advance for your assistance.

I want to be with you (ngifuna ukuba nawe)----- This is correct.
in Your Presence (ebukhoneni bakho)
I want to be with you (ngifuna ukuba nawe)
Face to face (ubuso nobuso)
I want to be with you (ngifuna ukuba nawe)
in Your Presence (ebukhoneni bakho)

Ngiyabonga kakhulu for the translation. Can you please let me know how close I was on the last line: "In the manifested presence" (eniveza ukuhlalisana amaNkosi).

Again, many thanks!!!!!

Ooops. I just realized that I didn't include the entire last time which is: In the manifested presence of God.
