Hi,
I have been thinking that it would be a good idea, if those able, would post some lyrics from classic Gĩkũyũ songs, so that we can learn something from them.
What do you think about that?

Chris

yeah its a good idea.

Has anybody any lyrics that they can post in store??

Chris

I know a song!

Ngai wa uthigu wa Iburahimu, ithe witu,
Tondu wa thakame ya murugwo thakiriria
Muthijeri uri tha twitiririe
utugi wa thakame na mai

Niwe mwihoko wa ngoro yakwa ndugatige.
Mehia na waganu na mahitia, thambia there.
Ujitikie ri ikigongonaini (?),
Kia ma twaini kihuri ti uthigu.

Tha ciaku muthijeri munene na utugi
Iria wera niiri na maroho ma nabii
aati niukagarura meciiria
ma ngoro ciothe ma twike meru.

Ikurukira ngoro cia athuri othe na atumia
na anake na airitu na ciana cia ngenge
We na irathimo mithemba yothe,
yakirikaniro giaku kiekui.

Ririkana Joshua ngombo yaku, wi Jehova
Ni agiririe baba riitwa riaku riconorwo.
Maguta maria wamwitiririe
Ndamaconorithiria nduriri.

I'm sure there are a ton of mistakes in there but that's the jist of it...it took me sooo long to learn but it's a BEAUTIFUL song!
