Habari za Siku Yako?_ How Was Your Day_Taarab

Swahili version of a song about love and longing. Music is one of the most powerful ways to learn a language. That's why we created two beautiful love songs – one in Bemba and one in Swahili – with full lyrics and English translations. Habari za Siku Yako? (How Was Your Day?) is the Swahili version. It tells the story of a man who dreams of the woman he is destined to marry. Though they have not yet met, he greets her each morning, asks about her evening, and dreams of their future together—their home, their children, their life. The song is performed in the style of Taarab genre with deep roots in the Swahili coastal culture of Kenya and Tanzania. The poetic lyrics (mashairi) follow traditional Swahili romantic expression. LYRICS = SWAHILI & ENGLISH (Verse 1 - Asubuhi | Morning) Ninaamka, jua linachomoza I wake up, the sun is rising Nafikiria wewe, usingizi wangu I think of you, my sleep (my dream) Najua uko mahali pengine duniani I know you are somewhere else in the world Labda unanota, kama mimi nilivyo Maybe you are dreaming, just like I am Na kwa sasa, bado hatujakutana And for now, we have not yet met Lakini leo, nataka kukusalimia tu But today, I just want to greet you (Chorus) Habari za asubuhi, mpenzi wangu Good morning, my love Uwe na siku njema, mimi ni wako Have a good day, I am yours Ndoa yangu bado, lakini najua My marriage is yet to come, but I know Nitakupenda kabla sijakutana nawe I will love you before I meet you Mpenzi wangu, niko tayari kwa ajili yako My love, I am ready for you (Verse 2 - Jioni | Evening) Jua linazama, giza linaingia The sun is setting, darkness is coming in Nimeketi peke yangu, nauliza moyoni I am sitting alone, asking in my heart Habari za siku yako? Siku yako ilikuwaje? How was your day? How was your day? Natumai ulicheka, na hukuwa na huzuni I hope you laughed, and were not sad Ninaota nyumba yetu, na watoto wetu I dream of our house, and our children Nauliza, utapenda wapi kuishi? I ask, where will you want to live? (Chorus) Habari za jioni, mpenzi wangu Good evening, my love Siku yako ilikuwaje? Mimi ni wako How was your day? I am yours Ndoa yangu bado, lakini najua My wedding is yet to come, but I know Nitakupenda kabla sijakutana nawe I will love you before I meet you Mpenzi wangu, niko tayari kwa ajili yako My love, I am ready for you (Bridge - Longing & Hope) Muda si tayari, ndiyo najua The time is not yet ripe, yes I know Lakini subira, ni fundisho la mapenzi But patience, is a lesson of love Kila siku, nakaribia kwako Every day, I am getting closer to you Hata kwa roho, nashika mkono wako Even in spirit, I am holding your hand Siku moja, macho yataonana One day, our eyes will see each other Siku moja, "Nakupenda" nitasema One day, "I love you" I will say (Final Chorus - More powerful, full instrumentation) Habari za usiku wangu mzima? Good evening (how are you) my whole night? Ndoa yangu bado, lakini najua My marriage is yet to come, but I know Nitakupenda kabla sijakutana nawe I will love you before I meet you NITAKUPENDA KABLA SIJAKUTANA NAWE I WILL LOVE YOU BEFORE I MEET YOU Mpenzi wangu, niko tayari kwa ajili yako My love, I am ready for you Niko tayari... kwa ajili yako. I am ready... for you. (Outro - Guitar fades out) Nitakupenda... I will love you... (Spoken softly in Swahili) Nakupenda... kabla sijakutana nawe. I love you... before I meet you. ______________ Listen to both versions and tell us which one is your favourite version.
