PaPi Clever & Dorcas - Nakumbuka Sayuni Lyrics

1

Ninakumbuka Sayuni, nchi ya heri mbinguni, - I remember Zion, the blessed land in heaven

bahari kama kioo na’furahia rohoni. - the sea is like glass and I rejoice in my soul

Nyuma kimeta cha nuru Naona mji wa mbingu, - Behind the anthrax of light I see the city of heaven

nyimbo za nyumba ya Baba nasikiliza daima. - the songs of the Father's house I always listen to

Mapambazuko mbinguni yataondoa utaji, - The dawn in heaven will remove the veil

vyote tulivyoamini tutaviona milele. - all that we believed we will see forever.

2

Mauti haina nguvu, Yesu a’vunja uchungu, - Death has no power, Jesus broke the pain

naye aliwakomboa wote; wafalme, watumwa. - and he redeemed them all; kings, slaves

Ninamtwika Mwokozi dhambi, huzuni na shida; - I put sins, sorrows and problems on the Savior

mbavuni mwake nafasi kama bandari salama. - in his side a place like a safe harbor

3Kuna ‘jaribu njiani, mengi yakunizuia, - There are trials on the way, many hinder me

na mara nyingi miiba, inaumiza miguu. - and often thorns hurt my feet

Nikikumbuka Sayuni moyo huwaka kabisa, - When I remember Zion, my heart burns

mbingu ninaitazama na ku’himiza safari. - I look at the sky and encourage the journey
