Rain Kenya, Swahili Gospel Lyrics , , 5 Comments


(Sung in Swahili)

Usinione nimechakaa unitilie dharau (Don’t look at my tatters and despise me)
Mimi binadamu, umesahau? (I am also human, have you forgotten?)

Unaishi kwa dhamani, (You live in riches)
Mimi naishi kwa imani (I live on faith)
Mbele zako mimi sina haki, (Before you I have no rights)
Mbele zake mimi mwenye hadhi (But before Him, I am valuable)
Fahamu kuwa Mola ndiye aliniumba mimi na wewe (Remember God is the creator of all)

Refrain:
Mimi mwanake, usiku nitalala (I am His son, I will sleep in peace)
Mbele zake maulana, sote tuko sawa (For before the Lord, we are all equal)

Ulinipuuza mie, eti sifai kuwa nawe (You wrote me off as useless)
Uliniona mie, eti hati ya kula nawe (I was not worthy to eat with you)
Sahani moja tupotiliwa chakula (From one plate when we were served)
Nyumba moja tulipofaa kuishi pamoja (In one house as we were meant)

(Refrain)

Wema wake taji la upendo juu yangu (His love and mercy are my crowns (?))
Ndani yake nilikuwa na uwoga wote uwe kimya (Before Him, all my fears are silent)

(Refrain)

(Languages: English, Swahili)

From the first day I met you
Sijawahi lala njaa, Nyumba umeishughulikia (I’ve never slept hungry, I have shelter)
From the first day I met you
Sijalala na kiu, umekuwa maji ya uzima (I’ve never slept thirsty, you’re my living water)
From the first day I met you
Sijapigwa na baridi blanketi umenipa (I’ve not slept cold, you’ve covered me)
From the first day I met you
Umenipenda na mambo yangu mengi (You’ve loved me the way I am)

Ulinipenda kwanza kabla nikujue (You loved me before I knew you)
Ulinipenda kwanza kabla nikupende (You loved me before I loved you)
Nilipokujua hapo nikatambua milele nitakuinua(Once I knew you, I knew I’d praise u forever)
Pendo la kishua, nami naamua nitakupenda pia (An everlasting love, I resolve to love you)

Refrain:
It is just a way, a way to show how much I love you
Ni njia ya kusema jinsi mimi ninavyo kupenda (Same translation)

Adui wewe umekuwa kizuizi maishani (Enemy, you’ve become an obstacle)
Adui wewe wataka nikose mimi taji ya uzima (Enemy, you want me to miss the crown)
Adui wewe ulishindwa miaka iliyopita (Enemy, you’re already defeated)
Kalivari aliposema yamekwisha (In Calvary when He said “it is finished”)
Eloi eloi lamasabakithani (“Eloi, Eloi, Lamasabakthani”)
Mawe walitupa, mate kukutemea (He was beaten, and spit on)
Mkuki ubavuni, maji yakamwagika (His ribs were pierced, and water flowed out)
Damu ilivuja, ili nipate uzima (He bled, that I may be saved)

(Refrain)
