Mama, natotela (Thank you, mama)
Ifwe remember you always
Grenis Sapalo Kapita, you were the light
In every dark moment, you made things right
Your hands so gentle, your heart so pure
Mama, your love will always endure
Nshima on the table, your songs in the air
Every sacrifice, every prayer
You taught us strength, you taught us grace
Nothing can replace your beautiful face
Grenis, Grenis, we miss you so
Your spirit lives in all we know
Mama, you're forever in our hearts
From this life you may depart
But your love, it never dies
In every tear, in every sigh
Grenis Sapalo Kapita, rest in peace
Your blessing on us will never cease
Muli shani without you here
But we feel you drawing near
In the quiet moments, in our dreams
You're still guiding us, it seems
Mayo, your legacy lives on
In every daughter, every son
The strength you gave us, we carry it well
Stories of your love we'll always tell
Grenis, Grenis, we miss you so
Your spirit lives in all we know
Mama, you're forever in our hearts
From this life you may depart
But your love, it never dies
In every tear, in every sigh
Grenis Sapalo Kapita, rest in peace
Your blessing on us will never cease
Thank you, Mama
We love you always
Grenis Sapalo Kapita
