Sung in Mijikenda:
In the morning I wake up, I give thanks, I'm full of energy. I get ready for my day to out and entertain people with music, and anywhere I go I met new people. Some have propblems unsolved in their hearts, but my music makes them feel good, and happy, some say you;ve made my day..All I give thanks to god. Problems are apart of life, they'll go away. Everybody is going to work, and I must work, we all must work that's what life requires us to do. My work is music, i'm a musician.
