Verse 1
Katupakase, anti lupiya ndaba ne gyetuvudde wala
Kyetulumiririrwa bitone mwekyo mwe bwtuyimbira ubayimbire ebizimba
Atenga tukolelela gwanga Uganda abaliba abalamu mutusomeko mu birirangwa
Tudaaga na dunia, nga tuzaaye amabujje gaffe tegalya amagumba
Tudaaga na dunia, nga tuzaaye amabujje gaffe tegabulwa obutuuliro
Baganda bange tukole namanyi tukolwe obutaweera ebyokunyooma emirimu bya kileela
Tukole namanyi obutaweela ebyokunyoma emirimu byakileela
Chorus
Tupatikanira kuba bulungi netufubba ne tufungiza okuba obulungi
Netutoba olwokuba amabujje netufuba tuzimbe egwanga elyenkya
Tukola misana na kiro ebitone byotuwadde ddunda tubikuume
Netufubba nyo tufunne essanyu munsi dunia gyegenda twetegekere nze nawe noyo nooli
Verse 2
Ensi yensi nebyensi byansi tusanidde tubele bagumu
Tugiryako makoola nolwekyo tusanidde tukwatire wamu
Bangi bendabye twali ba mukwano wenjogerera tweyawulamu
Byanfuna no ate banange ngaate lupiya ye kazalabulwa
Obuvunaanyizibwa buli muntu alina ntoko
Bwodda mupokopoko obudde bukuyitako
Alina naatalina fenna tukeera kuyigga Dr.Nsimbi tumukwateko
Atere ajjanjabe obulamu bwabakyala baffe nabaana baffe beyagaleko
Ekyono kyekiteganya nze nawe noono nooli nga tumunoonya entakira
Repeat chorus
Verse 3
Kyaalangibwa mulusuku eden atakole taalire omusajja kuntuuyo ze
Kwonolya kwonosula oyambe ne bakadde bo amabujje gasome ate ogategekere
Teri….alinywa ttuzi twabule,ngatamazze kulembeka
Nabagagga betulaba betwegomba buli lukedde, baayita mukupatikana
Obuvunaanyizibwa buli muntu alina ntoko
Bwodda mupokopoko obudde bukuyitako
Alina naatalina fenna tukeera kuyigga Dr.money money tumukwateko
Atere ajjanjabe obulamu bwabakyala baffe nabaana baffe beyagaleko
Ekyono kyekiteganya nze nawe noono nooli nga tumunoonya entakira
Repeat Chorus till end

wow great thank you for these lyrics, a luganda song by Jose Chameleone
great song by Jose
Love this song!!!
Chameleone never disappoints ngiyakutjela!
<3
Can someone please tell me what this song says? His music is great. An African legend. Also, seems like some words are similar to kinyarwanda, is the language close to kinyarwanda or kirundi?
The song is in the Luganda language. I can't speak or don't understand Luganda but I know how to say you 'Thank you' in it :-)
Any Luganda speakers out there who can help us?
translation: [literally]
verse 1:
let's work 2gether for money, as it is we've come a long way
wat we r struggling for is improvement in our work so we[artists] sing meaningful music
we are also working for our nation uganda so those who will come after us will hear abt us...
we hassle wif the world for the good of our children; so that they'll b fed and have shelter even after we're dead n gone...
chorus:
we do all that we do for our wellness
we struggle for our children n d good of our nation
we work night n day to develop the talents that god has given us
we struggle 4 d sake of happiness n brighter futures 4 all
verse 2:
the world is juz wat it is n things of d world belong ryt here
we can't own it, just take from it what we need so we can't afford 2 separate
i know people who used 2 b my friends but our paths don't cross nomore
...n it's b'coz of disagreements over money
everybody carries lots of responsibility so if u turn to gossip, the world moves on without u
rich n poor, we all spend our days in search of money
so it can improve the quality of life 4 our wives n children
that's all the struggle is about...
verse 3:
it was declared in the garden of eden dat man shall eat from the work of his hands
nobody shall get a drink of water without collecting it[4 lack of better words]
even the wealthy whose lifestyles we envy started out hassling
everybody carries of responsibility...[same as verse 2]
...
my translation isn't the best, but i blv it captures d soul of the song! I love this jam...
weebale nyo!
thanks for the translation, I like the essence of this song and I hope it inspires everyone out there.
For God and country!
