Christine 'Tina' Adda - Nisaidie

from Spotlight on Kenyan Music Vol​.​3 by Various Artistes

/

about

Tina like any Kenyan artists developed her singing talent in her local church. Her first public performance was on television as one of the 14 contestants, selected from a pool of 500, in the 1st East African Project Fame competition, in 2006. Tina recently graduated with a diploma in journalism and public relations from the Kenya Polytechnic. She plans to make a career in both her academic pursuits and her music interests, wanting to emulate Kenyan musician Eric Wainaina for his lyrical creativity and simplicity. 'Nisaidie' which means help me in Kiswahili is a tribute song to the destitute African child.

lyrics

Angalia chini, uone anavyolia
Angalia nyuma na akufwata
Angalia kando amekushikilia
Pande zote yuwapo nawe

Nisaidie mama, nisaidie
Nisaidie dada, nisaidie
Nisaidie ama, nisaidie
Jamani munisaidie

Angalia vile amejiskilia
Anavyolia ywalia kwa njaa
Angalia vile anavyoegemea
Uchungu unamuumiza we..

Nisaidie mama, nisaidie
Nisaidie dad, nisaidie
Nisaidie mama, nisaidie
Jamani munisaidie

Tutalaumu nani?
Tutalilia nani?
Tutalaumu nani?
Mateso ya mtoto wa Afrika
