1 Comment


(Sung in Swahili)

Hili ni ombi langu kwako, ee Mungu wangu (This is my prayer to You, my God)
Unitendee jambo jipya (Do something new unto me)
Hii ni sala yangu kwako, ee Baba yangu (This is my prayer unto you, my Father)
Unifanyie jambo jipya (Do something new unto me)
Nimesubiri kuvushwa, toka nilipo (I have waited to be promoted from where I am)
Unitendee jambo jipya (Do something new unto me)
Moyo wangu watumaini, kwamba wewe unaweza (My heart hope that You will)
Unifanyie jambo jipya (Do something new unto me)
Nimeona umetenda kwa wengi, kwenye maisha yao (I have seen you do unto others’ lives)
Nami unitendee jambo jipya (Do something new unto me)
Nimeona umeinua wengi, kwenye maisha yao (I have seen you lifting others’ lives)
Unitendee jambo jipya (Do something new unto me)

Yule mjane wa Naini, aliyefiwa na mwanawe (The widow in Nain, that lost her child)
Ulibadili historia yake (You changed her history)
Lazaro siku nne kaburini, mimi sijamwona kushtuka (Lazarus four days in the grave, we’ve never seen such wonder)
Ulishangaza mafarisayo (You amazed the Pharisees)
Mwanamke aliyetokwa na damu, miaka kumi na miwili (The woman who bled for 12 years)
Ulibadili maisha yake, unitendee (You changed her life, change mine as well)
Aliyepooza yuko kule, anasubiri muujiza wako (The paralytic is there, waiting for your miracle)
Yesu nakuomba, unitendee (Jesus I pray, do unto me)
Maisha yangu yanajaa mapooza, uko wapi nabii? (My life is full of paralysis, prophet, where are you?)
Ubadili maisha yangu (Change my life as well)

Nimechoka kufinyiliwa, nimechoka kukanyagiwa Yesu (Jesus I am tired of being oppressed and stepped on)
Unitendee jambo jipya (Do something new unto me)
Nimesubiri kupandishwa cheo, lakini imetosha (I have waited for promotion, now that is enough)
Unitendee jambo jipya (Do something new unto me)
Nimeajiriwa miaka mingi, kwenye kampuni hii (I have been hired for a long time in this company)
Lakini sijapandishwa cheo (But I have not been promoted)
Walioajiriwa mwaka jana, wengine wamepandisha vyeo (The ones hired last year, some have already been promoted)
Sasa wanaitwa maprofesa (Now they are called professors)

Ombi langu kwako, ombi langu kwako (My prayer to you, my prayer to you)
Sala yangu kwako, naomba unitendee (My prayer unto you, I pray that you do unto me)
Unitendee, inuka unitendee (Do unto me, rise and do unto me)
Yesu nakuomba, unitendee (Jesus I pray, do unto me)

Refrain:
Unitendee, unitendee (Do unto me)
Yesu, nakuomba unitendee (Jesus, I pray that You do unto me)
Unitendee, unitendee (Do unto me)
Fanya jambo jipya, unitendee (Do something new unto me) (Repeat)

Eliya naye alilala, pale chini ya mretemu (Elijah too slept under the juniper tree)
Ulimtuma kunguru kwake (You sent the raven to him)
Alipata nguvu Bwana, ya kushindana na adui zake (Lord his strength was restored to contend with his enemies)
Ulibadili maisha yake (You changed his life)
Mimi ni nani mbele zako? Ulinifia msalabani (Who am I before You? Yet You died on the cross for me)
Hebu badili hatima yangu (Change my future)
Yesu badili historia yangu, badili maombi yangu (Jesus change my history, change my prayer)
Badili maisha yangu, unitendee (Change my life and do unto me)

(Refrain)

Hatimaye ni leo, ni siku yetu

Uwepo wenu nyote eh eh, kwetu ni kitu

Kwetu ninyi ni ndugu, leo na kesho

Harusi maua, ng’aring’ari wanapendeza
(The wedding is like flowers, pleasing and glittering)
Leo ni furaha, shangwe na furaha

Wacha tufurahi, sote tufurahi

Haikuwa rahisi (It was not easy), eh sweetie

Muhimu ya harusiĀ  (Our special wedding) (Repeat)

Bridge:
Sasa nyumba moja, mwili mmoja
(Now we are one house, one body)
Kila kitu ni moja, tuwe pamoja

Upendo naongeza, nawe ongeza

Heshima na pandisha, tuwe pamoja
(I raise respect, that we be together)

We ndo mwendani wangu, rafiki yangu

Na wazazi wameona wakaturuhusu

Kwa furaha wakasema eh “Tumewabariki”

(Sweetie thatĀ  I respect you, you respect me)
Mahaba motomoto, yawe ni wimbo
(Everlasting love to be our song)
Kwetu yawe waridi, yakanukie
(For us to be like a pleasing perfume)

Walikuepo, walitamani, nao watafunga harusi
(THere were those who desired marriage and wedded)
Wakaparangana haikuwezekana
(They quarrelled and didn;t work out)
Kama si nyinyi, tusingefika hapa na kufurahi hivi

(Goodwill to all brethren of all sides)
Tutapendwa na wote, hata na Mungu

(Sung in Swahili – Psalm 35)

Refrain:
Eh Bwana utete nao wanao teta nami (Oh Lord, contend with those who contend with me)
Upigane nao, wanao pigana nami (Fight those who fight against me)(Repeat)

Ushike ngao na kinga usimame, unisaidie (Take up your shield and armor, arise and come to my aid)
Vuta we mkuki uwapige, wanaonifuatia (Brandish your spear against those who pursue me)
Uambie nafsi yangu mimi ni wokovu wako (Say to me “I am your salvation”)
Uwatoe mkuki uwapige, oh wanao nifuatia (Brandish your javelin, against those who pursue me)
Uambie nafsi yangu “mimi ni wokovu wako” (Say to me “I am your salvation”))
Wananiuliza mambo nisiyoyajua (They question me on things I know nothing about)

(Refrain)

Waaibishwe wafedheheshwe (May they be disgraced and put to shame)
Warudishwe nyuma, wanaotafuta nafsi yangu (May they be dismayed, those who plot my ruin)
Wafadhaishwe, wawe kama makapi (May they be like chaff before the wind)
Mbele yao pepo malaika wa Bwana waangushe chini (With the angel of the LordĀ driving them away)

Wananilipa mabaya, badala ya mema (They repay me evil for good)
Kutwa kucha waniwinda ili niteseke (All day long, they hunt me so that I suffer)
Niko ndani yako niweke eh Mungu wangu (I am in you, preserve me, Oh my God)
Ubavuni mwako nikumbatie, Jehova wangu (Embrace me to your side, my Jehovah)
Mkononi mwako niweke, eh Mungu wangu (Hold me in your hands, Oh my God)
Ubavuni mwako nikumbatie, Jehova wangu (Embrace me to your side, my Jehovah)

(Refrain)

Njia yao iwe giza na utelezi (May their path be dark and slippery)
Malaika wa Bwana, akiwafuatia (With the angel of the Lord pursuing them)
Uharibifu uwapate kwa ghafla (May ruin overtake them by surprise)
Wa uharibifu waanguke ndani yake (May they fall into the pit they hid)
Mimi bure wasinisemange, bure wasinibonge (That they may not speak against me in vain)
Na uovu wao aloficha umnase mwenyewe (May the evil they hid, catch them)
Bila sababu amenichimbia shimo nafsi yangu (Since without cause they dug a pitĀ for me,)
Mifupa yangu yote itasema (All my bones will exclaim)
“Bwana ni nani aliye kama wewe?” (“Who is like you, Lord?”)
Na nafsi yangu itamfurahia Bwana (Then my soul will rejoiceĀ in theĀ Lord)

Wapendeza, Bwana wapendeza (You are exalted, Lord be exalted)
Eh Bwana wapendeza (Oh Lord, be exalted)
Katika hili najua utatenda (In this I know you will do)
Nitetee Bwana nitetee (Defend me Lord, defend me)
Eh Bwana nitetee (Oh Lord, defend me)
Katika hili najua utatenda (In this, I know you will do) (Repeat)

(Languages: Swahili, English)

Hivi nakupendaje? (How much do I love You!)
Hata mwenyewe sijielewi (So much that even I cannot understand myself)
Ninakupendaje? Namna hii Bwana (How much do I love You, like this)
Hivi umenipokeaje? (The way You have received me)
Maana nasikia raha sana (I am filled with joy)
Umenipokeaje? (Namna hii Bwana) (The way You have received me)
I deserve Nothing (Nothing)
Lord you give me everything
You never disappoint me
Oh Lord in any way

Bridge:
Yaani hata mi nikianguka, Bado (Even when I fall, Still)
Mkono wangu unanishika, Bado (You hold my hand, Still)
Kwenye mitego ya Muovu, Bado (In the snare of the evil one, Still)
Baba yangu unanivusha, Bado (Father You still ferry me, Still)

Refrain:
Tarararira, Jesus your my desire
Tarararira Your Love is on fire
Tarararira What did I do-did I do
Tarararira, Nistahili upendo wako wee? (To deserve Your Love?)

Nami nitatii, amri zako Daddy (I will listen to Your commands, Father)
Nifanye safi, mwili na roho Daddy (To cleanse my body and Spirit, Father)
Usiniache kabisa (Usiniache kabisa) (Do not leave me)
Maana kwa wengine mi ni takataka (For to others I am rubbish)
Kwako mi dhahabu (But to You I am like gold)
Maana umeniosha mi nawaka waka (For You have washed me until I gleamed)

(Bridge + Refrain)

Ninaringa unanipenda (I boast of Your Love)
Unanilinda (You guard me)
Wanitunza (You care for me)
Eeh Bwana wangu (Oh my Lord)
Nzambe na ngai (My God)
Shammah (The Lord is There)
El Shaddai (Lord Almighty)

(Refrain)
