about

The lady from Chula
A husband laments his wife’s expensive lifestyle:
“Where did you get all this money from? I don’t earn as much...”

lyrics

Nya jochula apenji ango mathagi, ango mathagi yawa
Nya jochula apenji, nya jochula apenji iman- yango

Nya jochula apenji ango midwaro ango midwaro yawa
Nya jochula apenji, nya jochula apenji idwa- rango

Jaber we a penji I hero bayo angomimanyo yawa Jaber we a penji, jaber we a penji imanyango

Nya jochula apenji pesa mikelo gi ango matime odwa
Pesa mikelogi, pesa mikelogi oa kanye

Chunyi sandore, chunyi dwaro mwandu
Chunyi sandore jaber we a konie

Pile otieno awinji, ilekaango awinji ileko Nairobi, Jaber we akoni ngima midwaro oinga
Jaber ero kona oyudo tich wadhi watie Nairobi Jaber we akoni ngima midwaro oinga
Jaber ero kona oyudo ot, wadhi wadagie Dandora
Jaber we a konie ngima midwaro oinga
Nawinjo wach moro weche gi okona Naneno wach moro timbegi onyisa

Bibedie buta wagerie odwa
Bibedie gi nyithindwa wa bedie odwa
