khadja nin: wale watu (those people)
Mbali ya ma inchi yote
far and wide in all countriesMbali ya Paris au Roma
As far as Paris or RomeKuna watu masikini
There are poor peopleHawa liye hawa ombe
They don't cry, they don't begWana itika tu vile
They just bear itWale watu wana imba
Those people are singingAta kama wana lala njala
Even if they are sleeping hungryNjo vile… kila siku
That's the way it is… EverydayWacha ile maneno ya bule
Stop it with the empty wordsUsiji liliye hali yako
Don't cry about your stateWe haujuwe umasikini
You don't know real povertyHangaliya wale watu
Look at those peopleHawa liye hawa ombe
They don't cry, they don't begWale watu wana imba
Those people are singingAta kama wana lala njala
Even if they are sleeping hungryWacha kabisa
Completely stopKuwaza kama weye
Thinking about yourselfHaupashwe kujua
You should knowMaisha yao
About their lifeJua na siye
Know them and don't stay awaySiye mbali yao
Don't alienate themTuna weza kuwasayidiya
We can help themKila siku
Every day
