Munduiiriri (He Who Fights My Battles)

Good music.

Momo I can give you a shoulder to cry on and a chest to lay your head on

That song is so sad man.
And some are living like that right now.
Poverty is a cruel thing.

love that song too

While on this subject, yule ana ingine yaitwa ‘Ndogo nene’ by Eli John Kariúki aniambie. The chorus goes something like:

…andú a Ngai thikíríria-i…inyue mwína mathína maingí…Ngai witú ndangítútiga…múndú owothe úmwíhokete…’

Sang some time in the mid to late 90s.

Just getting round to listening to this…It takes me back to when I was a kiddo, i didnt know much but i fully understood this song and knew that I was very previledged to have lunch everyday sob sob

Ningwanirira aria othe me muoyo maigue,
Ati ritwa ria Jehova nama ni ria kwihokeka
Daudi amwitaga, Ngai uria uri muoyo
Na akiumbura ndari ona Mumwihoki
atiganiirio
We ni Ngo ya kugitira aria oothe
mamwihokete
na niatugirite agakira Ngai ciothe

And this one too “Ni kuri kugua na kurugama, uguo nigukwira ati ni kuri Ngai wa etereri”

There is another classic, the likes of “Gatheri”, goes like this, “Cumbi cumbi cumbi wa thii…” can’t find it :frowning:

Hehe you remember this one where the now famous “Sufferer wa Mungu” came frm"Muthiini wa Ngai atoragio no Ngai…"
