Refrain:
Mungu Baba yeye hafungi macho (God the father does not sleep)
Habadiliki jana leo na kesho (He does not change, yesterday, today and tomorrow)
Azijua raha na shida zako (He Knows your joy and your sorrows)

Macho yake makali yaona mambo yote (His sharp eyes sees everything)
Hata yale yamefichika anaona (Even the unseen he sees)
Hana jambo la siri asioliona (There is no secret he does not see)
Umekosa chakula mavazi hata pesa (You don’t have food clothing and even money)
Kodi ya nyumba karo ya shule hata mchumba (Your rent, school fees even a beau)
Unadhani sasa dunia imefika mwisho (You think the world is coming to an end)

(Refrain)

Jirani, wacha mirungirungi, rafiki wacha maneno mengi
(Neighbor, abandon your worries, My friend, abandon your words)
Sijui kwa nini wanisema, Eti mimi, nimekuwa kafiri
(I don’t understand why you gossip, that I am a hypocrite)
Eti mimi nimekuwa mrui, sijui, wala sisemi kitu
(That I am a backslider, I don’t know, but I am silent)

(Refrain)

Akisema yuakuona jamani usitie shaka (If he says he sees you, please do not worry)
Ye halali na hachoki na wala ye habadiliki (he does not sleep he does not tire nor does he change)
Azijua raha zako, azijua na shida zako (He knows your joy, he knows your sorrows)
Tuimbeni halleluya Hossanah ye amefufuka (Let us sing Haleluyah, Hossana he is risen)
Haleluyah, ye halali na hachoki na wala ye habadiliki (Haleluya, he does not sleep, he does not tire nor does he change)
Haleluyah, tuimbeni haleluya Hossana ye amefufuka (Haleluya, let us sing haleluya hosanna he is risen)

(Refrain)

Rain Kenya, Swahili Gospel Lyrics , Leave a comment


Verse 1:

Yesu kamwambia, mwanamke msamaria kisimani
Hao wanaume ulio nao hawamalizi kiu, kunywa maji
Ee dada kunywa maji, kunywa maji
Kwani ukinywa haya hamna kiu tena
Minisketi hipster fashioni Hazimalizi kiu kunywa maji

Chorus

Kunywa maji, Kunywa maji,
Kunywa maji, ya uzima

Verse 2:

Mzee mbona kiu, na maji yapo, Kila siku pombe, sigara mdomoni
Leo ni atoti, kesho ni wanjiku, Watakumaliza kunywa maji
Kijana nakwambia usidanganyike, Raha za dunia, hazimalizi kiu
Madawa ya kulevya na dot komu, Hazimalizi kiu kunywa maji

(Chorus)

Verse 3:

Ee mama Kunywa maji uache fitina,
Wivu masengenyo na mashindano
Maji ya uzima, furaha tele
Kila siku mama ni haleluya

(Chorus)

Wacha pombe, Kunywa maji ya uzima

(Chorus)

//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
ker kou gi ukimwi ne ka gotar bik ukmwi we
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

Umeniandalia Meza (You Have Prepared a Table) lyrics by Marion Shako

Rain Kenya, Swahili Gospel Lyrics , , , , 1 Comment


(Sung in Swahili: The Shepherd’s Psalm – Psalm 23)

Bwana mchungaji wangu, sitapungukiwa (The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not Want)
katika malisho ya majani, mabichi hunilaza (He makes me to lie down in green pastures)
Kwa maji matulivu, yeye huniongoza (He leads me beside the still waters.)
Kwa uvuli wa mauti, sitaogopa kamwe (Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I shall not be afraid)

Repeat:
Umeniandalia, meza mbele yangu (You have prepared a table before me)
Machoni pa watesi wangu, Bwana huniongoza (Before my enemies, Lord )
Huisha nafsi yangu, katika njia za haki (He leads me in the paths of righteousness)
Kwa ajili ya jina lako, wewe upo nami (For His name’s sake, You are with me) (Repeat)

Nimekukimbilia, Baba Mungu wangu (I have run to You, Father my God)
Nisiaibike, mbele za watesi wangu (That I may not be ashamed before my enemies)
Wewe upo nami, gongo na fimbo yako (You are with me, Your rod and Your Staff)
Vyanifariji Baba, Sitaogopa kamwe (Comfort me Father, I shall not be afraid)

(Refrain)

Umenipaka mafuta, kichwani mwangu (You anoint my head with oil)
Kikombe kinafurika, machoni pa watesi wangu (My cup runs over, in front of my enemies)
Wema nazo fadhili, zitanifuata (Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me)
Siku zote za maisha yangu, nyumbani mwako milele (All the days of my life; In Your House forever)

(Sung in Swahili)

Nafsi yangu yakungoja Bwana | My soul waits upon you Lord
Kuliko walinzi wangojavyo asubuhi | More than watchmen wait for the morning
(Repeat)

Naam, kuliko walinzi wangojavyo asubuhi | Yes, more than watchmen waiting for dawn
Nafsi yangu yakungoja | I wait upon you Lord
(Repeat)

Wale wote wamgojao Bwana | All who wait upon the Lord
watafanywa upya Nguvu zao Maishani | Will be given new strength
(Repeat)

(Chorus)

Wamgojao mungu wao,watafanywa upya | Those who wait upon our God, will be renewed
Nguvu zao maishani,wale wote eehee | And renewed strength
Ewe dada ukimgoja bwana, | My sister if you wait for the Lord
Utafanywa upya nguvu zako maishani | You will be given new strength
Ewe dada ukimgoja bwana, | My sister if you wait upon the Lord
Utafanywa upya nguvu zako maishani | Your strength will be renewed

(Chorus) + (Verse 2)

Wale wote wamgojao Bwana | All who wait upon the Lord
watafanywa upya Nguvu zao Maishani | Will be given new strength
(Repeat)
