Johnson Mwakazi - Dunia Mviringo
from Spotlight on Kenyan Music Vol.3 by Various Artistes
about
Johnson Mwakazi started his musical career in 2005 for personal gratification. To him it is a passion to communicate the truth to people through music. Johnson hold a certificate in Theatre and Media for development and has performed in musicals and theatre productions with leading Kenyan theatre groups since 2004. He is currently a news reader on Hot 96 FM. He describes his music as solemn R&B and looks up to Terry MacAlmon, the Christian songwriter and recording artist as role model. His Kiswahili song 'Dunia Mviringo' (The World is Round) is a call to help those who can't help themselves.
lyrics
Ndungu zangu, ninawaomba,
Mnisikize, kilio changu.
Hebe jiulize, umetoka wapi
Uendako, utakakokuwa,
Siku zijazo?
Maisha mviringo
Leo kwangu, kesho kwako
Badilisha mwenendo
Wasaidie wasiojiweza
Nijani nimepitwa, nikiomba msaada
Waliponiona, walinpita
Hawakujali, mgonjwa mimi sijiwezi
Pesa nazo, sina kamwe
Nifanye nini?
Taabu zimenisonga
Sina wakutegemea bali Yesu.
yeye ngao yangu, kimbilio
Nyota yangumsaada wangu
Uzima wangu.
Mnisikize, kilio changu.
Hebe jiulize, umetoka wapi
Uendako, utakakokuwa,
Siku zijazo?
Maisha mviringo
Leo kwangu, kesho kwako
Badilisha mwenendo
Wasaidie wasiojiweza
Nijani nimepitwa, nikiomba msaada
Waliponiona, walinpita
Hawakujali, mgonjwa mimi sijiwezi
Pesa nazo, sina kamwe
Nifanye nini?
Taabu zimenisonga
Sina wakutegemea bali Yesu.
yeye ngao yangu, kimbilio
Nyota yangumsaada wangu
Uzima wangu.
