Lyrics
Mutima nk'amata utamena
Heart tightly embraced, it's spinning
Looked around I been running with the wild ones
Looked around, I've been running with those living freely
Fata umutima nk'amata utamena
Take the heart tightly embraced, it's spinning
Mama, running with the wild
Mother, running with the wild
Fata umutima nk'amata utamena
Take the heart tightly embraced, it's spinning
Looked around I been running with the wild
Looked around, I've been running with the wild
Fata umutima nk'amata utamena
Take the heart tightly embraced, it's spinning
Mama
Mother
Njya nibuk'ibihe nasekaga
I've been through moments I remember
Ibabazo bitaraza akazuba katarenga
Questions that the sunset couldn't solve
Njya nibuk'imihanda itazima
I've been through roads that never end
Tuyikinamo agapira akavumbi katubera
We embrace thorns like a humble bed
Amarira y'ubusa baduhoza
Tears of the rain soak us
None ubu duhisha munda amaganya nagahinda
Now we divide the world, wrestling with dreams and victories
Nsubiz'ibihe njya nkumbura
I go back to those moments, I reminisce
Niyo byaba umunota
That was the moment
Nyibutsa uko baseka
Reminding me how they laughed
Njya nibuka n'amasah'atiruka
I recall the nights and the shooting stars
Nibaz'igihe buzira, none ijoro ni ubwira
I remember times passing, but the night whispers
Njya nibuk'igitsure cya papa
I remember Papa's teachings
T'inkoni ko zigukunda? ahana an'agutetesha
Do birds really love you? There, one fools you
Inshuti war'uziko uzahorana
Friend, life's journey will meet
Zimwe mukura mutana, izindi z'itaba imana
Some are short like a child, others are endless like a dream
Nsubiz'ibihe dutarama
I go back to those moments we trudged through
Niyo ntagaruka aha
That's where I won't return
Nyibuts'uko baseka
Reminding me how they laughed
Mutima nk'amata utamena
Heart tightly embraced, it's spinning
Looked around I been running with the wild ones
Looked around, I've been running with those living freely
Fata umutima nk'amata utamena
Take the heart tightly embraced, it's spinning
Mama, running with the wild
Mother, running with the wild
Fata umutima nk'amata utamena
Take the heart tightly embraced, it's spinning
Looked around I been running with the wild ones
Looked around, I've been running with the wild
Fata umutima nk'amata utamena
Take the heart tightly embraced, it's spinning
Mama
Mother
Mutima na nkonvu
Heart and courage
Ni nka biro niyo nzonvu
Like an eagle, that's my strength
Nzik'ubuso buzi we na yobu
Let your beauty and mine shine
Mpagaze bukura
I'm planting on you
Nsakaz'uku kuri
I lean on you
Kano nkora niko kazi
This is what I do, this is my work
Nguh'icyatum'uhashyika
I am the one who doesn't give up
Niko nanjye ngan'inzozi
This is where I am with my dreams
Mwana ukigera ikigali
Child, when you reach Kigali
Mfata ukuboko tugane
Take my hand, let's walk together
Ruguru mu kabuga gashash'
Peacock in the bustling city
Ijuru kw'isi yawe
Your sky on this earth
Rega nanjye niho ntuye
Allow me to live there too
Ku basaba ko batunga
When they ask for proof of your worth
Batabaza uko uwazuye
They won't know how you survived
Yaje gupf'nyum'azuka
They'll come to awaken you from your slumber
Mutima nk'amata utamena
Heart tightly embraced, it's spinning
Looked around I been running with the wild ones
Looked around, I've been running with those living freely
Fata umutima nk'amata utamena
Take the heart tightly embraced, it's spinning
Mama, running with the wild
Mother, running with the wild
Fata umutima nk'amata utamena
Take the heart tightly embraced, it's spinning
Looked around I been running with the wild ones
Looked around, I've been running with the wild
Fata umutima nk'amata utamena
Take the heart tightly embraced, it's spinning
Mama
Mother
