[male vocals] I
still
remember
the
days
we
stayed
together
You
were
my
elder,
my
protector,
my
brother
We
laughed,
we
played,
we
shared
one
roof
Now
the
house
is
quiet...
and
I
miss
you
Nalekumbuka
insiku
twikalanga
pamodzi
Wali
mukulu
wanga,
walinkebekelela
Twaseka,
twasansamuka,
twalila
pamodzi
Lelo
inzu
yaisa
cete...
nalakukumbuka
mukulu
Ndikumakumbuka
masiku
timakhala
limodzi
Iwe
ndi
mkulu
wanga,
unkasamalira
Tinaseka,
tinasangalala,
tinalira
limodzi
Lero
nyumba
yachepa
chete...
ndikukusowa
mukulu *
Mukulu
wanga,
why
did
you
go
so
soon? *
Mtima
wanga
ulila,
I
can't
let *
Ndikukumbuka,
every
step
you
took *
Until
we
meet
again,
rest
in
peace
mukulu*
You
taught
me
how
to
be
strong
You
taught
me
how
to
pray
Now
I’
m
walking
this
life
alone
But
your
voice
still
guides
my
way
Walinsambisha
ukuba
mushima
Walinsambisha
ukulomba
Lelo
ndenda
nokwangu
ndekwikala
Ishina
lyobe
likanjiwa
mumutima
wandi
Unandiphunzitsa
kukhala
wolimba
Unandiphunzitsa
kupemphera
Lero
ndikuyenda
ndekha
Koma
dzina
lako
lili
mumtima
mwanga *
I
wasn’
t
ready
to
say
goodbye* *
Sindikali
ndi
nthaŵi
yokonzeka* *
Te
nali
nkonzeka
kukusazika* *
But
God
knows
best...
we’
ll
meet
again*
Mukulu
wanga...
My
elder...
Mkulu
wanga...
We
used
to
stay
together
Now
I
sing
this
song
for
you
Tigumane
kuli
Lesa...
Ti'onana
kwa
Mulungu...
We’
ll
see
you
in
Heaven
