Nao mwili wangu, matambara shida kanivalisha (My clothes are rags)
Kwa mguu wangu, kokoto kachukua usukani (My feet are filled with stones)
Sijui kabisa, yote haya nitaelezaje (I do not know how to explain myself)
Lakini nimeamua, narudi, narudi (But I have resolved to return)
Nimeamua, narudi nikajitetee (I have resolved to return, and defend myself)
