Lyrics

1. Zaeni matunda mema, zaeni matunda yale
Zaeni yenye baraka, zaeni ya heri

Bwana akiyapokea, yatabarikiwa vyema
Zaeni matunda mema, zaeni ya heri

2. Safisha mwenendo wako, safisha matendo yako
Safisha na Bwana Yesu, safisha yote
3. Fanyeni kazi kindugu, fanyeni kazi kwa bidi
Fanyeni na Bwana Yesu fanyeni na yote
4. Tolea matendo yako pamoja na moyo wako,
Naye Bwana Mungu wako atakubariki
5. Baraka za Mungu Baba, baraka za Mungu mwana
Na za Roho Mtakatifu ziwe nanyi nyote

KATONDA WAFFE OYO NNAMWEBAZA NTYA (This Our God — How Shall I Thank Him?)

Katonda waffe oyo – Nnamwebaza ntya? (×3)
Olw'ebirungi enfaafa by'atuwadde?
Nga tweyanze! Katumuddize kw'ebyo by'atuwadde
Ebivudde mu kutegana okwa buli nkya
(Ssebo ow'ekisa, ebyaffe bisiime
Anti biraga omutima ogusiima) (×2)
Ogw'abaana bo
This our God — how shall I thank Him? (×3)
For the abundant good things He has given?
How grateful we are! Let us give back to Him from what He has given
that which comes from our daily toil each morning
(Merciful Lord, accept these things of ours
for they show a grateful heart) (×2)
The heart of your children

1. Laba omugaati, laba n'eviini gye tuleese
Laba n'amakula g'otuwadde tugaleeta
Tobigaana, bitono nyo, biraga Kitaffe
Bwe tusiima Taata by'otuwadde, webalege
Behold the bread, behold too the wine we have brought
behold too the produce you have given, which we bring
Do not reject them, small though they are, they show, our Father
how thankful we are; Father, for what you have given, we thank you greatly

2. Tunaakuwa ki, ddala ky'osiima, nannyini nsi?
Laba n'obulamu bw'otuwadde tubuleeta
Tobigaana...

What can we give you that truly pleases you, O Owner of the earth?
Behold too the life you have given us — we bring it
Do not reject them... (refrain repeats)
3. Ebintu by'ensi, tubiwe Ddunda atwagala nnyo
Tumuwe ebilala by'atuwadde olw'ekisa kye
Tobigaana...
The things of the world — let us give them to the Provider who loves us so
Let us give Him other fruits He has given, out of His mercy
Do not reject them... (refrain repeats)
4. Nnaakuddiza ki, ddala eky'ebbeeyi ekikugyamu?
Kino kye nsobola kye nkuwadde onokitwala
Tobigaana...
The things of the world — let us give them to the Provider who loves us so
Let us give Him other fruits He has given, out of His mercy
Do not reject them... (refrain repeats)
