Alicios Theluji Ft. Juliana Kanyomozi- Mpita Njia Lyrics
Alicios:
Juliana we – Ooh Juliana
Sijui nianzie wapi – I don’t know where to start
Lakini kuna jambo nataka kukueleza – But there is something i want to tell you
Yule bwana mimi naye tuna hadithi – I have history with that man
Naye hucheza ule mchezo wa pata potea, and he does play a game of fifty fifty
( do you remember)
Mimi na wewe ni marafiki toka zamani — We have always been friends, you and I
Siwezi kukudanganya — [so] I can’t lie to you
Nia yangu kukulinda — My intention is to protect you
Tokana na mwizi — from a thief
(Wachana na mwizi) – (distance yourself from a thief)
Mwizi wa mapenzi — a thief of love [a heart breaker]
Mpita njia x2 [he is] a passerby (player) x2
Asante yake mateke — his [idea of] gratitude is to trample on you
Kwako hatakaa milele — he won’t be with you forever
Kesho atapata mwingine — tomorrow, he will get someone else
akuage alivyo niaga — [and he will] bid you goodbye, as he did with me.
Juliana :
Pilipili, usiyoila yakuwashia nini? — Why should you feel the heat, of chillies you haven’t had?
Bahati yangu — it’s my [stroke of] luck
Sio yako — Not yours
Hilo jua — understand that
Simply because a man couldn’t fall in love with you (he couldn’t fall in love with you)
It doesn’t mean he can’t love me (he loves me)
Nakuonya tena mara moja ya mwisho — this is my last warning to you
Tuache na amani — leave us in peace!
Alicios: Mpita njia – [he is] a passerby (player)
Juliana: Si mpita njia – [he is] NOT a passerby (player)
(Alicios: Ni mpita njia – [he IS] a passerby) (player)
Juliana: dada yangu acha kelele — [my sister] stop making noises
(Alicios: sio kelele — it is not [empty] noises)
Juliana: najua apenda ? — I know he likes/loves ?
Alicios: Mpita njia – [he is] a passerby (player)
Juliana: safari yake imeisha — he has reached his destination
Kwani kwangu amefika — as he is here with me
Alicios: endelea kujidangaya — keep on lying to yourself
Mpita njia….
Alicios: ni mpita nia, atakuumiza — he is a passerby (player), he will hurt you
Mpita njia….
