Kichigili lyrics by Pastor Joel Kimetto

1 Comment


//Note: This one was one of the hardest lyrics to write because I am not from the Kipsigis tribe and I haven’t spoken Kale in a while 🙂 So if you see any errors (I know they are there), leave me a note and I will be happy to edit accordingly. God bless you.

Verse 1

Kiyai Jehova eng togunet, muren ak cheb
Akonechi mugulelwekwek, kiy tab kamang’un
Kotunjo konyek ko mi ki moet ne leele Kwany
Mie ingogeer age ak age baba, kosibeshi
Kiyak ngalale chamyetab kwanda ak murenik
Chamyet daktari neng’ung’ irib, kogonun asenet
Chamyet che bo iman kogonun kainet, sige keljin wee
(?) Kwanda ne tinyei hasara, konu asenet o

Chorus:

Soman kirwogik wee taman ak mut, koitetab lok soman ak itestai
Kiinere Samson o kobelit ngano, koi korom chamyet bele emet
Kibengei chamyet o, ne gonu hasara, kigas agobo samson ak delila
Kiringa Samson kong’an siri, kebal konyekyi we bara chamyet o

Verse 2:

Geere koitos chek tuptem ak mut name agenge
King’et koroito ne kibal bik, elfusiek che chaang
Ta mami ne yaas ko geere ng’ony, ko kiberur bik

Obwanjin jesu we asikosaruon, akogonok beek we chebo sobon
Che tisei melelda tugul kamwa, che si kong’ung’et we sobonekwok

Verse 3:

Kigos shechem weritab hamor che kicham dinah
Kolen kwo goito kibwa kelenjin we achicha
Soman taunet kosom ak ang’wan kosiir […]
Kiba bik tumdo wee,(kibaa wee)
Kiba bik tumdo bikap shechem we tumdap murenik (kiba wee)
Korom chamyet, chamyetab dinah, kii […] bik
Mato kot kobwat kole kinyaljin ko chito agenge
Ne kicham chepto we (kiba we eh)
Bik somok ak kebar kobek, ki kono hasara chamyet noto (kibar biik oh)
Kiba bik tumdo bikap shechem we tumdap murenik (kiba wee)
Korom chamyet, chamyetab dinah, kii […] bik (kiba wee)

Verse 4:

Korintoek ne tai lok tuptem ak mut, soman iwe tai kot ko iit tuptem asi iguiyet Ne ile bortangung’ ko hekalutap tamirmiriet, ng’o jehovah ak arip anyun
kainai ile makiriotek chi ng’alekchono we, kichigili (kichigili)
Kichigili o mama, kichigili baba, kichigili korok we, kichigili sigenai
Yai betusiek chu we kiguur/kiyai harusi, eng ne matianit we we batchu nero (?)
kaso o lakwano kenyoru sandet o, obe daktari, sige … korok we
kaso sandana kenyoru murere, obe daktari, chepto komeng’isiei
