Baba yangu (My father)
Naomba ukapeleleze moyo wangu (I beg you to examine my heart)
Kama vile Daudi alisema (Like David said)
Peleleza moyo wangu baba (Examine my heart father)
Huoni chochote kisicho kitakatifu (You don’t see anything that’s not sacred)
Unitakaze (Bar me)
Nistahili kusimama mbele zako baba (So I qualify to stand before you father)
