Muturire uyu ni muritu ma Ngai baba
tondu kuri maundu meri itahotanagiria
gukenia Ngai na gukenia andu ndihotaga
na niguo andu meendire gukenio gukira Ngai

Chorus
korwo gwika wendo waku kwirutagwo ta ikinya
ingiraraga ngiiruta ikinya ndikanahitie
no ni kugia ndugu nawe na guguthingata
kaba ndugu yaku ngai ni iri na uumithio

ndanageria gwika wega na guthinga muno
nigetha ngenie Ngai na tuiguithanie na andu
matikenagio noguo moigaga ndi mwitei
ti itheru gukenia Ngai tikuo Gukenia andu

na ti itheru gutire ukenagia Ngai na andu
Yusufu onire kioneki akiira ariu a nyina

na tondu wa kwaga gwika uria mundu endaga
nigutumite ngie ndugu nene na munyumbi
na tondu………………………………………..?
nguria korwo ndatwika mwihia uunginjika atia

(Sung in Swahili)

Refrain:
Wanaokudharau siku moja watakusalimia kwa heshima
(Those who despise you, one day will greet you with respect)
(repeat)

Mateso yako ni ya muda tu, Mungu akuandalia ushuhuda
(Your troubles are only for a time, God is preparing a testimony for you)
Daudi Alikuwa mchunga kondoo, Mungu akamwinua kuwa mfalme
(David was a shepherd, God lifted him to be a king)
Leo unaitwa ombaomba, kesho utaitwa mbarikiwa
(Today you are called a beggar, tomorrow you will be called blessed)
Licha unatembea kwa miguu, kesho utaendesha gari
(Inspite of walking, tomorrow you will drive a car)

Chorus:
Nasema watakusalimia, kwa heshima (I say they will greet you, with respect)
Watakusalimia, kwa heshima (They’ll greet you with respect)
Wakati wako wako wa kuinuliwa, ukifika (When your time to be lifted, has come)
Watakusalimia, kwa heshima (They will greet you, with respect)
Wakati wako wa kubarikiwa, ukifika (When your time to be blessed, arrives)
Watakusalimia, kwa heshima (They’ll greet you with respect)
Wakati wako wa kukumbukwa, ukifika (When your time to be remembered arrives)
Watakusalimia, kwa heshima (They’ll greet you with respect)

Wanaosema hautaolewa, watashuhudia ndoa yako
(Those who say you will not be married, will witness your wedding)
Pale utakapovalishwa pete, watashikwa na kigugumizi
(When you are given a ring, they will be speechless)
Wanaosema wewe ni tasa, watakuona ukinyonyesha
(Those who say you are barren, will see you breastfeeding)
Na Mungu alimkumbuka Sara, hata wewe utakumbukwa
(God remembered Sarah, he will remember you as well)

(Chorus)

Wakuu wa Mungu wetu ni Ebeneza, hata sasa yupo
(Our great God is Ebenezer, even now he is here)
Msaada wetu wa karibu, mwite ataitika
(Our close help, call him and He’ll answer)

Jifunze kuwa na subira, utafanikiwa
(Teach yourself to be patient, and you will succeed)
Sana siku sio gani mama, atakuinua
(Not for much longer mother, he’ll lift you up)
Ona leo wanakuita kikaragosi, kesho watakuita bosi
(Look today they call you useless, tomorrow they’ll call you boss)
Aliyekunyima kadi za harusi, kesho wataomba shela yako
(Those who denied you an invitation, tomorrow will beg for crumbs)
Ona leo wanakupiga kibuti, kesho watakupigia saluti
(Today they kick you out, tomorrow they’ll salute you)

Watakusalimia, kwa heshima (They’ll greet you with respect)
Watakupigia magoti, ukifika (They’ll kneel before you, when you arrive)
Watakusalimia, kwa heshima (They’ll greet you with respect)
Walikuona ukilala jalani, ukifika (They saw you sleeping on rubbish, when you arrive)
Kesho watakupata ofisini, kwa heshima (Tomorrow they’ll find you in your office with respect)
Watakusalimia, ukifika (They’ll greet you when you arrive)
Watakusalimia, kwa heshima (They’ll greet you with respect)
Watakupigia saluti, watakusalimia kwa heshima.
(They’ll salute you, they’ll greet you with respect)
