about

Have you seen how beautiful my love is? How about the way she talks - have you heard her voice? In this song, the protagonist, playfully boasts about some of the things he finds attractive in his loved one, by asking rhetorical questions.

This is off the upcoming E.P, "Tisvikeiwo."

lyrics

Mudiwa wangu, aiwa mudiwa wangu
ndiani ambomuona ? Ndiani ambomuona?
Ko kunaka kwake ? Aiwa kunaka kwake ?
Ndiani ambokuona ? Ndiani ambokuona?

Come my love, come my love,
Live with me, live with me,
Come with me, Come with me
Be with me, Be with me
Happily, happily
We shall live, we shall live
Humbly, humbly,
We shall be, we shall be

Mafambiro ake, aiwa kufamba kwake,
Ndiani ambokuona ? Ndiani ambokuona ?
Ko kutaura kwake, aiwa kutaura kwake,
Ndiani ambokunzwa ? Ndiani ambokunzwa?

Come my love, come my love,
Live with me, live with me,
Come with me, Come with me
Be with me, Be with me
Happily, happily
We shall live, we shall live
Humbly, humbly,
We shall be, we shall be
