Dear life,
We move we fly we crawl
Crawling through the tunnels
Full of thorns and mud
Tunnels that make us
Tunnels, we move we crawl
Dear life…
Tusabahiane tukitabasamu
Kwani mi na we
Life kamili we make
Tukicrawl tukistumble
Dear life…
Remember the beginning;
Pale kwa kale kacorner,
Wall protected by fear
So thick so big
Hapo tulipotoka
Hatching to maturity?
Dear life….
‘Dee Kumbuka kale kafirst love’?
Yes you bet dear life,
Staggering left right ‘n’ center,
Sight yake butterflies tu
Enyewe life
Far tumetoka na farther twaelekea….
Walidhani mi ni fala
Kunitake for granted
Madame naive they said
Stranger in life’s land
They branded
Yet growth was my name
Falls andfailures my lessons
Dear life. ..
Wings I grew
Life tests taking
Each step at a time
From naivety to maturity
A journey its been
Grateful dear life…
Treasuring the besties
Holding the uglies
Learning the lessons
Kweli mi nataka. ..
Mi nataka twende…
Mi na wewe…tuserevuke
Dear life…
Dear life,
Friend, sister, brother,
Mother and father,
Strangers,
Welcome to my dear life
Plenty of seats
Take it carefully holding on
Off we go……..
