Muhogo Wa Jang'ombe - Bi Kidude traduction en anglais

Muhogo Wa Jang'ombe

Muhogo wa Jang'ombe, sijauramba mwiko
Usitukane wakunga, na uzazi ungaliko
Kaditamati naapa, muhogo sitonunua
Haikuwa Maimuna, aliyekwenda ung'oa
Kapata tete kuanga, na ugonjwa wa shurua

Kula dori kula dori, mshindo wa sufuria
Guliguli guliguli, kofia ina viua
Ndiye mimi ndiye mimi, anipataye ukoa

Mungu akitaka kupa, hakuletei barua
Hukupa usingizini, pasi mwenyewe kujua
Kwenda mbio sikupata, bure unajisumbua

Mkato wake matege, wakati anapokuja
Naliiweka dhamiri, ya kumfulia koja
Wallahi nimeghairi, kiumbe hana mmoja

Kamfunge kamfunge, beberu wa Athumani
Umfunge umfunge, pahala panapo jani
Endaye tezi na omo, atarejea ngamani

Sina ngoa sina ngoa, kuhadaiwa sitaki
Ni mwerevu ni mwerevu, wala sihadaiki
Pambanua pambanua, viwili havipendeki

Ya nini kutakadamu, kwa jambo lisilokuwa
Utahadhari na mwiko, wakati wa kupakua
Ukitamani makoko, chungu utakitoboa

Nauliza masuala, hamnambii jamani
Watu wake wakishiba, huzidi umaluuni
Pahala pasipo ngoma, hupandwaje na shetani
Nyimbo ya Bi Kidude

Jang'ombe Cassava

Jang'ombe cassava, I won't leave the spoon
Don't insult your in-laws, and may your motherhood last long
I swear by Kaditamati, I won't buy cassava
It wasn't Maimuna who went to uproot it
Get plenty of charcoal, and measles

Eating porridge, eating porridge, the sound of the pot
Rolling, rolling, the hat has feathers
It's me, it's me, who brings you wealth

When God wants to give, He doesn't send you a letter
He gives you in your sleep, without you knowing
I was never a sprinter, you're wasting your time

His footsteps are heavy, when he comes
I have made it my conscience, to wash his loincloth
I swear I've changed my mind, no one can match him

Tie him up, tie him up, Athumani's duck
Tie him up, tie him up, where there are leaves
He who goes with a razor and soap, will return with a drum

I'm not stupid, I'm not stupid, I don't want to be deceived
I'm clever, I'm clever, I'm not crazy
Choose, choose, two is not good

Why bother doing things that don't matter?
Be careful with the spoon, when serving
If you want coconuts, you'll have to drill the shell

I ask questions, you don't tell me, ladies
When his people eat, they swell like balloons
In a place where there is no dance, how can Satan be invited?
Bi Kidude's Song
