it's Swahili:
"Nants ingonyama bagithi Baba / Sithi uhm ingonyama / Nants ingonyama bagithi baba / Sithi uhhmm ingonyama / Ingonyama Siyo Nqoba / Ingonyama Ingonyama nengw enamabala"
and it means:
"Here comes a lion, Father / Oh yes, it's a lion / Here comes a lion, Father / Oh yes, it's a lion / A lion We're going to conquer / A lion A lion and a leopard come to this open place"
lol, it's defo better in Swahili ;)

It's not Swahili...i'm from Tanzania (we speak Swahili), and the chant is not Swahili. It is probably Zulu. Both are Bantu-type languages so they are very similar...

I met a Zulu who told me its Zulu and not Swahili. In the original song the man (Lebo M) makes the clicking sound which is characteristic of southern african languages and not Swahili
