Sisonje

Sizonje hii ndio nyumba yetu
Milango ipo wanapita madirishani
Sizonje ndio nyumba yetu
Milango ipo wanapita madirishani
Ingia uyaone, maajabu ya nyumba yetu
Ingia uyaone, maajabu ya nyumba yetu

Tulikaa barazani, tukasikia kelele
Kelele toka ndani, mtu anaruka dirishani
Sizonje, karibu nyumbani kwetu
Uone maajabu ya nyumba yetu

Karibu sana Sizonje, hii ndo nyumba yetu
Tulipoficha mundu za kupondea wezi
Kwani, makaburi yaliofukuliwa lazima yazikwe upya?
Nyumba hii Sizonje ina vyumba vinne
Vitatu havifunguki, kimoja hakina mlango
Japo kuwa kina watu ndani, na hawaongei kiswahili
Wenyeji wanalala sebleni na walishazoea
Sizonje kule tulipotoka panaitwa jikoni
Huna haja ya kwenda kule, kumejaa mafundi wa kupika
Sasa hivi wanakupikia wewe ili ule ulale
Ukiamka muongee nini hasa ujio na dhima ya safari yako
Wanashangaa mbona ghafla
Samahani sana mgeni
Wapishi wameniomba kwamba
Nikuulize tena kwa kukuomba kwamba
Eti unapenda vya mafuta au vya nazi?
Wanataka kukuonyesha madoido katika mapishi yao Sizonje
Sizonje chumba hiki naomba usiingie
Ukimaliza nitakwambia kwanini
Kuna sauti inajirudia mara kwa mara
Na hapa mlangoni kulikuwa na picha mbili kubwa
Moja picha, nyingine mchoro wa picha wa kwanza
Ninachokumbuka iliwahi kuandikwa
"USIYEMTAKA KAJA"
Hatukuwahi kuelewa maana yake
Labda kwa sababu ya ujio wako unaweza kutusaidia

Sizonje hii ndio nyumba yetu
Milango ipo wanapita madirishani
Sizonje hii ndio nyumba yetu
Milango ipo wanapita madirishani
Ingia uyaone, maajabu ya nyumba yetu
Ingia uyaone, maajabu ya nyumba yetu

Najua, wimbo mbaya haufai kubembelezea mtoto
Na kamwe mtoto hawezi kuungua
Kwa kiazi kilichokuwa kwenye kiganja cha mama yake mzazi
Njoo huku uone Sizonje
Si unajua, harufu ya uzazi haiishi mpaka mtoto akue?
Sawa, Sizonje, huu hapa ni ua
Lile pale ni shimo la taka
Na kile pale ni choo
Kinachotutisha na kutuogopesha zaidi
Wanaoishi humu ndani hawajawahi kutupa taka
Wala kwenda chooni
Kama ukiwa makini
Kwa nje utasikia sauti za makundi ya watu
Wengi ni vijana, wana bahasha za khaki mikononi
"KAMA HAMTUPI TAKA SHIMO HILI MLICHIMBA LA NINI?"
Lakini pia kwenye sauti zao, Sizonje
Kuna watoto, wazee na kina mama
Ukiunganisha sauti zao ndio unapata hizo kelele
Ninavyosikia, ila sina uhakika
Waliambiwa kihistoria nyumba hii ni ya kwao
Na wana haki ya kutupa taka na kutumia choo hiki
Sasa, njoo nikuonyeshe huku uchochoroni
Uone maajabu mengine ya nyumba hii
Sizonje, ukiona tembo anaringa
Ujue mvua zinakaribia

Sizonje hii ndio nyumba yetu
Milango ipo wanapita madirishani
Sizonje ndio nyumba yetu
Milango ipo wanapita madirishani
Ingia uyaone, maajabu ya nyumba yetu
Ingia uyaone, maajabu ya nyumba yetu

Ingia uyaone, maajabu ya nyumba yetu
Ingia uyaone, maajabu ya nyumba yetu

Sisonje

Sizonje, this is our house.
There are doors but they enter through the windows.
Sizonje, this is our house.
There are doors but they use the windows to come in.
Come in and see, the wonders of our house.
Come in and see, the wonders of our house.

We were sitting on the veranda, when we heard screaming.
Screaming from inside, someone is jumping out the window.
Sizonje, welcome to our home.
Come see the wonders of our home.

Welcome to Sizonje, this is our house.
Where we hid the machetes to beat thieves.
Because, the unearthed graves must be reburied, right?
This house Sizonje has four rooms.
Three do not open, one has no door.
Although there are people inside, and they do not speak Swahili.
The hosts sleep in the living room and they are used to it.
Sizonje, where we came from is called the kitchen.
You do not need to go there, it is full of cooking experts.
Right now they are cooking you so you can eat and sleep.
When you wake up, talk about what exactly you came for and the purpose of your journey.
They're wondering why suddenly...
I'm so sorry, guest.
The cooks have asked me that
I ask you again by asking you that
Do you prefer fat or coconut?
They want to show you the tricks in their cooking Sizonje.
Sizonje this room please do not enter.
When you're done I'll tell you why.
There is a sound repeating itself over and over again.
And here at the door were two large pictures.
One picture, the other a sketch of the first picture.
What I remember was once written
"HE WHO YOU DON'T WANT HAS COME".
We never understood what it meant.
Maybe because of your coming you can help us.

Sizonje, this is our house.
There are doors but they enter through the windows.
Sizonje, this is our house.
There are doors but they use the windows to come in.
Come in and see, the wonders of our house.
Come in and see, the wonders of our house.

I know, you shouldn't coddle a baby with a bad song.
And a baby can never get burned.
By a potato that was in the palm of his mother's hand.
Come here and see Sizonje.
Don't you know, the smell of birth does not end until the child grows up?
Okay, Sizonje, this is a flower.
That over there is a garbage pit.
And that over there is the toilet.
What scares and frightens us the most.
Those who live in here have never dumped garbage on us.
Neither go to the bathroom.
If you are careful.
Outside you will hear the sounds of groups of people.
Most of them are young people, they have khaki envelopes in their hands.
"IF YOU DON'T DUMP GARBAGE WHAT DID YOU DIG THIS HOLE FOR?"
But also in their voices, Sizonje.
There are children, old people and mothers.
When you connect their voices that's when you get those screams.
That's what I hear, but I'm not sure.
They were told historically that this house belongs to them.
And they have the right to dump garbage and use this toilet.
Now, come and show me here in the sketch.
See other wonders of this house.
Sizonje, if you see an elephant strutting.
Know that the rains are coming.

Sizonje, this is our house.
There are doors but they enter through the windows.
Sizonje, this is our house.
There are doors but they use the windows to come in.
Come in and see, the wonders of our house.
Come in and see, the wonders of our house.

Come in and see, the wonders of our house.
Come in and see, the wonders of our house.
