(Sung in Swahili)

Yale yale ya ujana maji ya moto n’kaukurupukia
(The same youth is like hot water I jumped on it)
Leo hii wawili watoto wanaiangalia (Today two children look to me)
Napambana sana na changamoto kuwatafutia
(I struggle with challenges to provide for them)
Nikikosa, mzazi mwenzangu anakuja moto (If I lack, my co-parent argues)
Matusi kunishushia (Verbally insults me)
Natumia nguvu kutafuta — jasho laloesha shati
(I use energy to search — sweat drenches my shirt)
Chini nikiziba ufa, juu linang’oka bati
(When I repair a crack on the floor, the roof leaks)
Zile ngo ngo kwa ndugu jama (The knock knock to my friends)
Zishaishanga mazima (mie) (Have completely stopped)
Miondondo mlezi wa wana (I have no help as the children guardian)
Lakini zali(zari?) sina (miee) (But I have no relief for myself)

Ama sauti yangu kwa mungu Baba, haisikiki?
(Is it because my prayers to Father God are not heard?)
Tuseme dua zangu mbingu ya saba, hazifiki?
(Shall we say my prayers to the seventh heaven, do not arrive?)

Response: Futa chozi, futa (Wipe the tears, wipe them)
Usiulize nalia nini (Do not ask why I cry)
Nahisi riziki yangu imepigwa pini (I feel like my provision have been stopped)
Iyeee lele lelile le
Mungu Baba nione (Father God, see me)

Nikiwa kazini akili zote zipo nyumbani
(When at work, all my attention is at home)
Nikiwa nyumbani wakusalishe, sina amani
(When at home they do not greet me(?), I have no peace)
Nakazana sana, kimziki (I struggle with my music)
Kweli napambana, kubahatisha riziki
(Truly I struggle in trying for provision)
Wanaomba mabaya wenye roho za choyo
(They pray ill for me those with selfish hearts)
Na ndugu zangu wakiwemo (My brothers included)
Napata fupa mi kibogoyo, Mungu ameninyima meno
(I get a bone, but I am toothless, God has withheld teeth for me)
Nikitazama watoto wangu, inje ya ndoa wamezaliwa
(When I look at my children, they were born out of wedlock)
Kwenye imani ya dini yangu, wanasema nishakosea
(In my religion’s faith, they say that I have sinned)

(Refrain)

Ama sauti yangu kwa Mungu Baba
(Is it because my voice to my Father God)
Tuseme dua zangu mbingu ya saba, hazifiki?
(Shall we say my prayers to the Seventh heaven do not arrive?)

Response: Futa chozi, futa (Wipe my tears, wipe them away)
Kuna muda naishiwa nguvu (There are times I lose strength)
Elimu sina kichwa mbumbumbu (I have no education, my brain is empty)
Naganga ganga njaa (I struggle with hunger)
Mungu wangu lini langu fungu? (My Father, when do I receive my portion?)

(Sung in Swahili)

Roho wako mwenyezi (Your Spirit, Almighty)
Amenifanya jinsi nilivyo (Has made me the way I am)
Pumzi yako, uhai wangu (Your breath, my life)
Umefufua mifupa mikavu (You have resurrected the dry bones)
Uhai umenipa Baba yangu (You have given me life, My Father)
Umetuliza dhoruba (You have calmed the winds)
Wakati wa mawimbi (In the times of storms)

Refrain:
Moyo wangu na ukuiniue wakati (May my heart lift you every time)
Nafsi yangu ikuhimidi kila saa (My soul to praise You every hour)
(Repeat)

Egemeo Baba yangu umbali huu (My Refuge, this far You’ve brought me)
Ninashukuru, Mwamba (I am thankful, the Rock)
Dunia, mbingu ni mwashahidi (Heaven and earth are witnesses)
Umbali huu ni wewe Bwana wa mabwana (This far You have brought me Lord of Lords)
Kwa makubwa, madogo, umbali huu (In great and little things, thus far)
Ni wewe Bwana wa mabwana (It is because of You Lord of Lords)
Na mengi, machache, umbali huu (In many and in the few, thus far)
Ni wewe Bwana wa mabwana (It is because of You Lord of lords)

(Refrain)

Bridge:
Ninakuinua, inua aa (I lift You up, Lift up)
Umetenda mema, mema Bwana (You have done Good, Good Father)

Ni wewe (wewe) Shamma (You are always there)
Wewe ni Jehovah Shamma (You are the Lord who is there)
Ni wewe (wewe) Jireh (You are the Provider)
Wewe ni Jehovah Jireh (You are the Lord our Provider)
Ni wewe (wewe) Shamma (You are always there)
Wewe ni Jehovah Shamma (You are the Lord who is there)
Na bado wazidi kuwa Mungu umekuwa (And You still remain the Same God) x2

Refrain:
Ni nani aliye Mungu, Mungu ila Bwana
(Who is like God, if not the Lord?)
Ni nani aliye Mwamba, Mwamba ila Mungu
(Who is the rock, the Solid Rock if not God?)
Ni Mungu ndiye anifungaye mshipi wa nguvu, aha!
(It’s God who who girds me with strength)
Ni Mungu ndiye kimbilio la unyonge wangu, aha!
(It is God who is my refuge in my weakness)
Naye anaifanya kamilifu njia yangu
(He who makes my path complete)
Ni Mungu ndiye anifungaye mshipi wa nguvu, aha!
(It’s God who who girds me with strength)
Ni Mungu ndiye kimbilio la unyonge wangu, aha!
(It is God who is my refuge in my weakness)
Naye anaifanya kamilifu njia yangu
(He who makes my path complete)

Ni yeye Bwana aliye nguvu zangu nampenda sana
(He is the Lord with the strength, I love Him)
Ni yeye Jabali langu na boma langu na Mwokozi wangu
(He is my rock, my shelter and my Saviour)
Mungu wangu, mwamba wangu ninayemkimbilia
(My God, My rock whom I run to)
Ngao yangu, na pembe ya wokovu wangu, na ngome yangu
(My shield, the cornerstone of my salvation and my refuge)

(Refrain)

Katika shida zangu nilimwita Bwana “ee Bwana”
(In the midst of my trials I call the Lord “Oh Lord”)
Na kumlalamikia Mungu “ee Mungu”
(I bring my complaints to God “Oh God”)
Akaisikia sauti yangu hekaluni mwake
(He heard my voice in His Temple)
Kilio changu kikaingia masikioni mwake
(My cries reached His ears)

(Refrain)

Bwana alinitendea, sawasawa na haki yangu
(Lord dealt with me according to my rights)
Akanilipa sawasawa na haki yangu
(And He repaid me according to my rights)

(Refrain)

Nitamwita Bwana astahiliye kusifiwa
(I shall call upon the Lord who deserves the praise)
Hivyo nitaokoka na adui zangu
(And thus I shall be saved from my enemies)

(Refrain)

Ajabu imo ndani yako (Wonderful things are to be found in You)

Ni kamili, si hadithi (They are perfect, not tales)
Ukitenda umetenda Bwana (Lord, If You do You’ve done) (Repeat)

Matendo yako (The work of Your hands)
Yanatisha kama nini (Are terrifying)
Matendo yako (Your works)
Yanatetemesha (Cause trembling)

Bwana wewe si hadithi (Father You are not fiction)
Wewe si simulizi (You are not a story)
Bwana wewe ni kweli (Lord You are real)

Kwamba nguvu zako (That Your might)

Yanajieleza kwenye maisha yetu (Speaks in our life)
Yanajieleza kwenye uponyaji wetu (Speaks in our healing)
Yanajieleza Kwenye kuinuliwa (Speaks in our lifting up)
