1. SAFARI [1]

 

(Written By Adawnage Band)

 

SAFARI…HII SAFARI NI NDEFU

SAFARI…HII SAFARI NI NGUMU

SAFARI, SAFARI…OOH OOH

SAFARI, SI TU SAFARINI

 

JASHO LANITOKA, MIZIGO YANICHOSHA

LAKINI N’TATOBOA, NIPATE TAJI LANGU

 

 

SAFARI [1] is a mellow tune that introduces the listener to our intention and also offers an encouragement that although the journey may be long and full of challenges, there is a title at the end.

 “Whoever wants to follow Me must deny himself, take up his cross and follow Me.”

SAFARI [2]

 

(Written By Adawnage Band & Dominic Khaemba)

 

NIKO SAFARINI KAZA MWENDO (MI NAKAZA MWENDO)

NAJIKAZA KABISA (AAH AAH)

NIKO SAFARINI NAKAZA MWENDO (MI NAKAZA MWENDO)

NIPATE TAJI LA MAISHA (AAH AAH)

 

TAJI LA MAISHA

 

VOOM VOOM VOOM VOOM….

 

SAFARI YETU KAKATIZWA TUKAKWAMA NJIANI

LAKINI BADO TUNASONGA, SONGA MBELE

 

SAFARI IMEANZA TWENDE, TWENDE, TWENDE

 

SHIDA, SHIDA, MATATIZO NA MASHIMO NJIANI

LAKINI KAGUNDUA MWENDO NI ASTEASTE

 

SAFARI IMEANZA TWENDE, TWENDE, TWENDE

 

VOOM VOOM VOOM VOOM….

 

 

SAFARI [2] is a Benga sequel of SAFARIi [1] that was inspired by the number of huddles we faced, literally, while making our numerous trips to Nyeri to record our SAFARI Album. At some point we had multiple punctures and the same is reflected in this ‘Journey of Faith’. We face ‘potholes’ and occasionally need to ‘refuel’ in order to get to our destined place.

 ”…forgetting what is behind and pressing on towards the mark.”

2. USISAHAU

 

(Written By Roselyn Mwihaki)

 

ANGALIA KULE TUMETOKA, ANGALIA KULE TUNAKOENDA

VILE TULIVYOCHOKA VILE VILE TULIVYOSOTA

ANGALIA WENGI WANAVYOISHI, MAISHA BILA YESU EEHH

HAYAFURAHISHI, WATU HAWAFANIKIWI

WENGI WAMEJAZWA NA CHUKI, WENGENI WAMEJARIBU WIZI

JAMANI KOSA LETU NI NINI, WENGI TUNACHEZEA DINI

 

       IMBA LEO, SIFU LEO, TUBU LEO

       USISAHAU KESHO ALIYEKUUMBA

       NO, NO, NO, USISAHAU

 

WENGINE WANATUPA VIJUSI, MWINGINE AMEPATWA NA VIRUSI

YULE NAYE AMEJAZA MATUSI, KAZI NIKUITANA FISI

SIKU ZA MWISHO JAMANI NDIZO HIZI, BIBILIA INASEMA HIVI

SOTE TULIPEWA RAFIKI, TUBU LEO ATAKUBARIKI

KOMA KUSUBIRI KESHO, HUJUI KAMA UTAKUWEKO

SOTE TULIPEWA RAFIKI, TUBU LEO ATAKUBARIKI

 

ITS A LYRICAL INTENTION, TO GET YOUR ATTENTION

NO MORE HESITATION, NO MORE SITUATIONS THAT LEAD YOU ASTRAY

YOU BETTER HAVE A VISION, VISION, THAT HAS JESUS SEATED ON THRONE AS THE KING

YOU BETTER PRAY DAILY, DAILY, KESHO WEWE USISAHAU

 

 

USISAHAU is an Afro-rock song sensitizing our listeners to observe what is happening in our world, our society and our families today, that we may not forget how far and from where God has brought us.

 

 

 

3. UWEZO

 

(Written By Roselyn Mwihaki)

 

NILIKUWA NATAFUTA UKWELI WA MAISHA YANGU

SASA MIMI NAULIZA, ‘NIANZE WAPI?’

MARAFIKI WANGU WOTE WAMENIKIMBIA

       NIPE UWEZO, UWEZO

       WAKUSIMAMA IMARA JUU YA NENO LAKO

       NIPE UWEZO, UWEZO

       WAKUSIMAMA IMARA JUU YA NENO LAKO

 

NILIKUWA NATAFUTA KIPENZI CHA ROHO YANGU

SASA MIMI NAUMIA, NIENDE WAPI

MAUMIVU, MACHUNGU MINGI YAMENIJAZA MIMI

JEHOVAH NISSI NALIA, NIHURUMIE

 

 

UWEZO is a prayer asking God to give us strength to stand on His word amidst all the betrayal and pain that we face.

(Written By Roselyn Mwihaki)

6. LET ME LIVE

 

(Written By Roselyn Mwihaki)

 

WHERE WOULD I BE WITHOUT YOUR GRACE?

WHERE WOULD GO WITHOUT YOUR PACE?

I’M LOOKING BACK AT WHERE I HAVE COME FROM

LORD, I KNOW YOU’VE BROUGHT ME THROUGH

I’VE MADE UP MY MIND TO LET YOU KNOW

I JUST CANNOT TAKE IT ANYMORE

TOMORROW MAY NOT BE MEANT FOR ME

SO HERE IS WHAT I’VE KEPT FROM YOU

 

        BITTERNESS IS WITHIN ME, WEAKNESSES IS WHAT I HIDE

        LONELINESS IS CROWDING ME, OH MY GOD WHY CAN’T YOU SEE?

        ALL THIS PAIN IS DROWNING ME, AND MY PAST IS HAUNTING ME

        COULD YOU SET ME FREE I PRAY AND LET ME LIVE, LET ME LIVE

 

 

LET ME LIVE is a lamentation to God, acknowledging His divine working in our lives, but being real enough to cry before Him when faced with tests and when we pass through the fire and the storms that rage against us.

“Breathe on me new life, Lord, and let me live.”

 

 

 

7. TURN US

 

(Written By Robert Njuguna)

 

TURN US AGAIN TO YOURSELF OH GOD

MAKE YOUR FACE SHINE DOWN UPON US OH GOD

ONLY THEN CAN WE BE SAVED

ONLY THEN WILL WE BE SAVED

 

LET YOUR GLORY FALL

LET YOUR SPIRIT MOVE, LORD, IN OUR MIDST

AS WE TURN OURSELVES TO YOU OH LORD

 

 

If My people, who are called by My name, will humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, forgive their sins and heal their land.

 

 

 

8. TRUE LOVE

 

(Written By David Ogara)

 

MY HEART IS SEARCHING FOR LOVE THAT’S GREATER

THAN WHAT I’VE SEEN THIS WORLD OFFER ME

MY HEART IS SEARCHING FOR LOVE THAT’S DEEPER THAN

EVERY OCEAN, EVERY SEA

 

I WANT TO KNOW THE BEAUTY OF LOVE, SO TEACH ME HOW TO LOVE

I WANT TO KNOW THE JOY THAT IT BRINGS

 

        I WANT A LOVE THAT’S PURE AND INNOCENT

        I WANT A LOVE THAT’S VAST AS THE UNIVERSE

        I WANT A LOVE THAT SPRINGS FROM DEEP WITHIN

         MY HEART IS SEARCHING FOR LOVE

 

MY HEART IS DESPERATE FOR LOVE NEVER ENDING

LOVE THAT WILL NEVER DIE, NEVER FADE AWAY

MY HEART IS SEARCHING FOR LOVE THAT’S SWEETER THAN

THE SOUNDS OF HEAVEN’S VOICES KISSING MY EARS

 

NOW MY HEART HAS FOUND THE BEAUTY OF LOVE

MY HEART HAS KNOWN THE JOY THAT IT BRINGS

 

        I’VE FOUND A LOVE THAT’S PURE AND INNOCENT

        I’VE FOUND A LOVE THAT’S VAST AS THE UNIVERSE

        I’VE FOUND A LOVE THAT SPRINGS FROM DEEP WITHIN

         MY HEART HAS FOUND TRUE LOVE

 

NIMEPATA…

 

 

What I was searching for i.e. God’s true love, I have found it and my heart is now at rest.
