Lyrics
Hii siyo ndoto yangu
Hii siyo ndoto yangu
Hapa nilipo siyo ndoto yangu
Naenda kiwango kingine
Hii siyo ndoto yangu
Hii siyo ndoto yangu
Hapa nilipo siyo ndoto yangu
Naenda kiwango kingine
Kuna mahali nimetoka mahali ninakwenda
Hapa nipita tu
Hii siyo ndoto yangu
Hapa nilipo siyo ndoto yangu
Naenda kiwango kingine
Ndani yangu naona nafasi nyingine
Mbele yangu naona kiwango cha juu
Hali yangu naona kuinuliwa
Naenda kiwango kingine
Naenda viwango vingine
Naenda viwango vingine
Naenda viwango vingine
Utukufu uwe na utukufu
Kuitwa mwana biashara mdogo mdogo
Hii siyo ndoto yangu
Ndoto yangu ni kumiliki biashara kubwa kimataifa
Naenda kiwango kingine
Kuitwa mwimbaji mdogo mdogo
Hii siyo ndoto yangu
Ndoto yangu ni kuitwa muimbaji mkubwa ulimwengu
Naenda kiwango kingine
Kuitwa mfugaji mdogo mdogo
Hii siyo ndoto yangu
Ndoto yangu ni kumiliki mifugo wengi wasio na idadi
Naenda kiwango kingine
Kuitwa mkulima mdogo mdogo
Hii siyo ndoto yangu
Ndoto yangu ni kuwa mkulima mkubwa mkubwa
Naenda kiwango kingine
Kuitwa mchungaji mwenye kanisa dogo dogo
Hii siyo ndoto yangu
Ndoto yangu ni kumiliki kanisa yenye watu wengi
Naenda kiwango kingine
Kuna mahali nimetoka mahali ninakwenda
Hapa nipita tu
Naenda viwango vya juu
Eeeh Mungu wangu nisaidie
Naenda viwango vya juu kielimu
Naenda viwango vya juu kiuchumu
Naenda viwango vya juu kiuduma
Naenda viwango vya juu
Naenda viwango vingine
Naenda viwango vingine
Naenda viwango vingine
Utukufu kuwe na utukufu
Navuka naenda ng'ambo nyingine
Navuka naenda ng'ambo nyingine
Navuka naenda ng'ambo nyingine
Ng'ambo yangu ya ahadi zangu
Navuka naenda ng'ambo nyingine
Navuka naenda ng'ambo nyingine
Navuka naenda ng'ambo nyingine
Ng'ambo yangu ya ahadi zangu

Meaning & Inspiration
Hii Siyo Ndoto Yangu is a declaration of movement beyond present limitations. The singer names work, education, ministry, farming, and business as areas in which greater capacity is desired. Its recurring phrase Naenda kiwango kingine expresses determination to keep advancing, while the prayer Mungu wangu nisaidie places that ambition before God rather than presenting effort as entirely self-sufficient.
The lyric can be read alongside biblical calls to press forward and to seek wisdom for each step. Its language about another shore and personal promises should be handled cautiously: Scripture does not guarantee every material goal named in a song. Even so, the repeated appeal for divine help introduces dependence into the vision of progress. The result is a Swahili gospel song about hope, perseverance, and aspiration, with its strongest spiritual note found in asking God to guide advancement and receive the glory.
