Mukulu Nsi – Elijah Kitaka
Mukulu Nsi Lyrics
(Verse)
As I walk throught the city
Drizzles and the rain
Hopping I will never be the same
When my dream comes true to reality
A winner as well as an achiever
Mr. well done like ting plane chemistry
Helping communities in every mini street
Respect, far away from mistakes
You should believe it
Some of yours will be snakes
Family maybe real friends
A beginning or an end
Sleepless nights, nightmares, no police case
Only man-fares
School time book fares
Sometimes life is not fair
Education is the key but
Graduation bachelor degrees no jobs
The jobless are bigger number no jokes
Remember the time tick tock every minute it clocks
Natural calamities killing the poor people
Some ready just leaders full of evil
Gunshots one left a widow
A potion of future babies
Gentlemen and future ladies
Yes or no or may be I believe year
(Chorus)
Tusubira birikyuka
Naye mukulu nsi yanigina yetoloola
(Yetoloola byona bibaawo)
(Naye esigala yetoloola)
Tusubira birikyuka
Naye mukulu nsi yanigina yetoloola
(Ye yetoloola naye byona bibaawo)
(Naye esigala yetoloola)
(Verse)
Temptations
Raping the young nation
The children on the street with drug addictions
No father, no mother, no help, and no one to bother
They flying helicopters but,
The economy moving like a tortoise
They say but they never do it for us
Our exodus losing focus
Asking ourselves if they do it on purpose
Diseases, epidemic, coming from polution and the chemicals
Bursting our hearts like baloons
Poaching animals wildlife baboons
City tycoons matter more than the ones with issues
Put yourself in the shoes of those in danger
Tebalina kyakulya
Enkuba ekuba basiiba ku bbala
Gatako n’enjala
(Chorus)
Tusubira birikyuka
Naye mukulu nsi yanigina yetoloola
(Yetoloola byona bibaawo)
(Naye esigala yetoloola)
Tusubira birikyuka
Naye mukulu nsi yanigina yetoloola
(Ye yetoloola naye byona bibaawo)
(Naye esigala yetoloola)
(Outro)
It moves everyday eeh
Bibaawo, babiraba
naye mukulu nsi yetoloola aah aah
(Yetoloola byona bibaawo)
(Naye esigala yetoloola)
Every night and day eeeh
(Ye yetoloola naye byona bibaawo)
(Naye esigala yetoloola)
