Artist: Eric Wainaina and Kanjii Mbugua
Song: Mabawa
Verse 1
Siku za mwizi ni arobaini
A thief has forty days
Na mchumba wangu amenitoroka
And my lover has left me
Alinishika nikionja tunda marufuku
She caught me eating the forbidden fruit.
Midomo yangu na asali
My lips dripping with honey
Chorus
Amepotea njiani
She has gotten lost on the way
Namtafuta simwoni
Am searching but I can’t find her
Ameniacha? La siamini
Has she has left me? No I can’t believe it
Mola nipe mabawa nimtafute majangwani
God give me wings so I can look for her in the desert
Mola nipe mabawa
God give me wings
Verse 2
Nimemtafuta mahali yote tuliyoyapenda
I’ve searched in all the places we liked
Simwoni na mimi sijulikani
I can’t see her and no-one wants to know me
Naitwa mjinga nambiwa, ‘Umepoteza malkia
They call me a fool and say I’ve lost a princess
Na umerudi utumwa.’
And become a slave
Chorus
Amepotea njiani
She has gotten lost on the way
Namtafuta simwoni
Am searching but I can’t find her
Ameniacha? La siamini
Has she has left me? No I can’t believe it
Mola nipe mabawa nimtafute majangwani
God give me wings so I can look for her in the desert
Mola nipe mabawa
God give me wings
