It's a call to action to the current generation. Basically writing a letter to the founding fathers and telling them the country is in a much worse position than where they left it. The current generation is then asked to self reflect and take charge of their destiny.
The song is about the price we are paying now due to failures from our past leaders + our current Generation is reaping it! So we should soul search ourselves and change!
The song is composed of Swahili similes and some hard phrases, to add on to that they also used some street slang used by used teenagers and youths so like trying to translate it using google, it won't be entirely successive not unless you get a kenyan t o translate it for you.
Hey would you react to a track called best rapper in Nigeria by khaligraph Jones it's a Kenyan track khaligraph is a well established rapper and you have to react to this one your mind will be blown away
Here a translation in ENGLISH :
Tujiangalie
Let us examine ourselves
Barua toka Jaramogi na Kenyatta
A letter came from Jaramogi and Kenyatta
Wanauliza kama Kenya kuko sawa
Asking if Kenya is doing well
Nikawajibu Kenya ni disaster
I answered, "We have a disaster in Kenya"
Watoto wetu wanazidi kuzikana
Our children keep burying each other
Na Tom Boya ameshika tama
And Tom Mboya is in anguish
Alituacha kama angali kijana
He left us while still young
Je angekuwa mambo yangekua sawa ?
If he was around would things be better?
Ndivyo alivyopanga Maulana
That's just what the Lord planned
Deni mlizowacha bado tunalipa
We are still paying the debts you left behind
Na tumekopa zingine China
And we have borrowed more from China
We built a railway (SGR) and roads
Tukajenga reli pia barabara
Zilizobaki watu wakasanya
People stole the leftovers
So Tujiangalie
So let us examine ourselves
Tuko pabaya leo kuliko jana
We are worse off today than we were yesterday
Sikio la kufa halisiki dawa
A dying ear cannot be cured
Tuko kwa Twitter tunajibizana
We go to Twitter to turn on each other
Tujiangalie
Let us examine ourselves
Tuko pabaya leo kuliko jana
We are worse off today than we were yesterday
Tusipo ziba ufa tutajenga kuta
If we don't seal the crack we will rebuild the wall
Tusake zetu tungali vijana
Let's toil for our own riches while we are still young
Waumini kwa mathree na Passie kwa Bimmer
Believers in buses and Pastors in BMWs
Kushoto fungu lakumi, sadaka kulia
Tithing on the right and offering on the left
Ndioo maana mbele ya kanisa, Mheshimiwa
That's why in church, Politicians
Anakula sacramenti kabla ya raia
take the sacrament before the citizens
Siku za mwishi zime shawadia
The last days are already here
Na Revelation inatuambia
As the Book of Revelation tells us
Hii generation inachoma picha
This generation is painting a bad picture of itself
Ni generation yetu
It's our generation
So Tujiangalie
So let us examine ourselves
Tuko pabaya leo kuliko jana
We are worse off today than we were yesterday
Sikio la kufa halisiki dawa
A dying ear cannot be cured
Tuko kwa Twitter tunajibizana
We go to Twitter to turn on each other
Tujiangalie
Let us examine ourselves
Tuko pabaya leo kuliko jana
We are worse off today than we were yesterday
Tusipo ziba ufa tutajenga kuta
If we don't seal the crack we will rebuild the wall
Tusake zetu tungali vijana
Let's toil for our own riches while we are still young
Michuki alisema, "Tufungeni mikanda"
Michuki said let's fasten our seatbelts
Ona leo twavuna tulichopanda
See how today we are reaping what we sow
Kura zetu zilitugawanya
Our votes divided us
Makabila na pesa pia tulimanga
We consumed tribes and money
So when you make your bed oh
So when you make your bed oh
(You lie on it ohh!)
(You lie on it ohh!)
Usingizi gani tumelala ?
What kind of sleep is this?
Tutajua hatujui
We will realize our ignorance
Vision 2030 itabaki ni story
Vision 2030 will remain fiction
So Tujiangalie
So let us examine ourselves
Tuko pabaya leo kuliko jana
We are worse off today than we were yesterday
Sikio la kufa halisiki dawa
A dying ear cannot be cured
Tuko kwa Twitter tunajibizana
We go to Twitter to turn on each other
Tujiangalie
Let us examine ourselves
Tuko pabaya leo kuliko jana
We are worse off today than we were yesterday
Tusipo ziba ufa tutajenga kuta
If we don't seal the crack we will rebuild the wall
Tusake zetu tungali vijana
Let's toil for our own riches while we are still young
Nyashinski
Mdosi aliniambia "Freedom never comes for free"
A powerful man told me "Freedom never comes for free"
We vote tribe ama real cash, ask Boni
We vote tribe or real cash, ask Boni
Tuna roho mahali hamwezi ita GSU plus doggy
Our hearts are where you can't call the riot police and their dogs on us
World mzima twitter kot ndio first body
World mzima twitter kot ndio first body
Burn picha, si ni Waafrika, Black coffee (Annan)
Burn the image in your mind, we are Africans, Black coffee (Annan)
I'm richer than my neighbor but we both in the slum
I'm richer than my neighbor but we both in the slum
If the rich always win then why should the popular run?
If the rich always win then why should the popular run?
Unless "Democracy" ni word si usema only for fun
Unless Democracy is a word we just say only for fun
Tujiangalie
Let us examine ourselves!
Na hii weekend tuko church tunauza sura kabisa
This weekend we are in church selling our faces completely
Post ya haga huenda poa sana na caption ya scripture
A social media post of booty goes along well with a caption of scripture
Kaa hiyo ndio gospel, pitisha bag ya sadaka kwa club
If that's the Gospel, then pass the offering bag in the club
Tujiangalie
Let us examine ourselves!
Traffic madrug ubuy ndai, traffic mandai zinadrag
Traffic drugs to buy a car, cars are dragging in traffic
Ku admire mwizi amemake it, story za shamba wamegrab
Admiring a thief who has become rich, stories of land that they have grabbed
Mkono nahonga imevaa bracelet ya colors za flag
The hand that bribes is wearing a bracelet with the colors of the flag
Yeah!
Yeah!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it. 🤗
Shuuuuukrani bro
Tujiangalie= let's look at ourselves
When they say musical language is universal they were right.... you got the gist of the song without understanding the language
I Am in kenya the first time I heard this song I replayed it for almost a week in my room..
😄 glad to hear that. It's a pretty awesome song.
I hope you had a wonderful time, and visit us again.
It's a call to action to the current generation. Basically writing a letter to the founding fathers and telling them the country is in a much worse position than where they left it. The current generation is then asked to self reflect and take charge of their destiny.
🌹 *Where are you Somebody Said?*
_I'm now dying here because I miss you_ 😊
The song is about the price we are paying now due to failures from our past leaders + our current Generation is reaping it! So we should soul search ourselves and change!
😥😥😥
Miss you dude. You are so sweet
Music is like food to the soul, irrespective of the language we can all relate.

The song is composed of Swahili similes and some hard phrases, to add on to that they also used some street slang used by used teenagers and youths so like trying to translate it using google, it won't be entirely successive not unless you get a kenyan t o translate it for you.
