VERSE ONE
I've been spending all of my days
I love you in a way
I've been spending all of my nights
Trying to realize
Your beautiful eyes
My sweet love
My sweet love
CHORUS
And it's a feeling in my heart
A feeling in my soul
Filling me up from my head to my toe
Sio kama mapenzi ya kawaida
Ni penzi siwezi kuelewa kabisa
Kabisa...
VERSE TWO
Sijui nisemeje
I know, I know I sound a little crazy
Ever since you came my way
My whole life has changed
And I do not regret
This beautiful feeling of sweet love
My sweet love
My sweet love
REPEAT CHORUS
VERSE THREE
Mara kwa mara najipata
Kwenye ziwa lisilo na mipaka
I drift away in this sweet sweet place
As I think of the ways
I'll share with you
My sweet love
My sweet love
REPEAT CHORUS
Yeah, yeah...

VERSE ONE
There are times when it feels,
niko chini ya bahari
ninazama, ninanyongwa
sipumui, sina air.
There are times when I feel,
nimefungwa na kamba
I am struggling, I am fighting
niwe huru.
Moyo wangu wanidunga,
sina mbele wala nyuma,
macho yangu, tiririka, wasi wasi.
Sononeka, jibu sina
(nim)mepotea, sioni njia
umia, naumia
I'm on the edge, on the edge, oh!
CHORUS
Wachilia dada
Wachilia ndugu
Wachilia...
Just let it go, it eats you up.
Just let it go, ooh.
VERSE TWO
When it feels, had enough
na maisha ni magumu
matatizo mekubamba
dunia kesha kwangukia
When it feels, strength is gone
on the verge of giving up
your body's frail, your muscles weak
and you can't seem to find a way.
Natishika makotini, unaomba kwa sauti
Mungu Baba nisaidie, nishike mkono
siniache
Hujijui, unahisia kulialia kwa uchunga
umia, naumia
you're on the edge, on the edge, oh!
REPEAT CHORUS
BRIDGE
(Kikuyu)
Guku ni gwa cucu (heiyo),
guku ni gwa cucu
gukama na ndume iria ria Mama.
REPEAT CHORUS TO END

INTRO
Hey mpenzi, nakupenda sana.
Chorus
Mpenzi, hakuna matata.
Kila kitu kitawa sawa, sawa.
My lover,
you don't have to worry,
everything will be alright.
VERSE ONE
Mpenzi wangu
Niko hapa kama unataka msichana, sana
Tulikosana, lakini hizo ni mambo za jana
Leo siku mpya, tuendelee, tusahau
zile makosa, then we can live and learn.
All the precious things then we can earn
forever, oh my baby
I chose ya, to be my number moja
Through sickness and health, poverty and wealth
Living each and every day, baby as it comes
I got a love call, to set your ball rolling
I made the plans in my mind
how to make you mine.
REPEAT CHORUS
VERSE TWO
Nataka tuelewane, tuache kugombana
Tabia yangu na yako, yasikilizana
Kwa hivyo wacha tuwe, bibi na bwana
Tuendelee na mbele, tuwache makelele
Mapenzi yawe tele, milele na milele
Cuz things ain't right between you and me
Nothing is the way that it is supposed to be
Something needs to be D-O-N-E
Cuz I wanna get it on and kick it right with you
Prove that I'm a girl who knows what to do
I don't really wanna wait, tt might get too late.
REPEAT CHORUS
BRIDGE
Hey mpenzi, nakupenda sana.
(Here's my love, baby come and take it)
VERSE THREE
I need your loving baby, can I get it right away?
I'd rather not wait, it's been long since you been gone
I've got quality time baby, all reserved just to be with you
Ain't no worries at all, boy I know just what I got.
My lover is you, I wanna be with you
No worries at all, I wanna rock your world
My mpenzi.
REPEAT CHORUS TO END
Hey mpenzi, nakupenda sana.
Here's my love, baby come and take it.
Mpenzi we, mpenzi.
Eeh mpenzi, ewe mpenzi.

It's a Friday night, everything's alright
Eh nyinyi mabeste twende tukatike

Ogopa DJs, wacha ku-delay
Sisi tumefika sasa tutawika
REPEAT CHORUS

CHORUS
Niwe wako milele (ai yai yai)
Nikupe mapenzi tele (ai yai yai)
Siwe na shaka, siwe na hofu we
Kwangu we karibia.
VERSE ONE
I loved you since I first saw you
Wanted to build my world with you
But you belonged to someone else
I'd die a thousand deaths for you
Bring you the earth, the sun and the moon
What can I do with these feelings I have for you?
Hey, hey
It's unusual for a girl to say.
Hey, hey
(wako milele, penzi tele)
Give me a moment, I just want a day
REPEAT CHORUS
VERSE TWO
I see the sadness in your eyes
I hear you cannot sleep at night
She took your heart and run away.
Learn to trust, let go of pain
With me my love, fall again.
Hey, hey
It's unusual for a girl to say.
Hey, hey
Give me a moment, I just want a day
REPEAT CHORUS TO END
Niwe wako milele (ai yai yai)
(wako milele)
Nikupe mapenzi tele (ai yai yai)
(penzi tele)
Siwe na shaka, siwe na hofu we
Kwangu we karibia.

VERSE ONE
Jua yaangaa, jua yaangaa kwangu
Kivuli chafunika,
kivuli chanipita tena
Nimewafunika vifaranga,
kinga vifaranga wangu
Adui namuona, adui namuona
adui namuona, hajui kuwa
CHORUS
Namuona mwewe x 4
VERSE TWO
Machozi yanitoka,
machozi yanitoka kwani
Uvivu utamuua, uvivu utaniua
Rafiki yangu kageuka adui
Ewe Mola muokoe
Toa chuki moyoni mwake
REPEAT CHORUS
VERSE THREE
Sisi marafiki tangu siku za utoto
Wewe wanijua kushinda watu wote
Ulinielewa nami nilikuamini
Nimeshindwa kutatua tatizo liko wapi
REPEAT CHORUS
BRIDGE
Look into my eyes,
Tell me all you see
Love thy enemy
friendly I can be
REPEAT CHORUS TO END

Miami Silas - Prayer

VERSE ONE
Every other morning I wake,
not because I'm deserving
it's 'cause you won't forsake me.
Every other day ain't the same
yet your love for me never changed
although I did and...
Thank you for all your love in me.
Without you I couldn't be (be).
Father I owe to you all I am
not as a man, but as part of your plan.
VERSE TWO
I believe that we all make mistakes.
It's beyond our power to change,
what it takes is you.
I'm looking at my life and I see.
I'm looking at my life and I see.
There isn't any sin or anything
you can't forgive and
though the Devil will try to lie, so sly
You never made me cry
Now that I love thee I know
you won't let me compromise
since you opened up my eyes.
My eyes, since you opened up my eyes..
