Chiyanga Come Back Home
A song made by Tac Base
(Mayo... Chiyanga, my son...)
Ayy, where did you go, my boy?
Hear your mother’s voice tonight...
From Kasama to Masaiti, we tried to guide your way
But the street-life called your name, and you ran away
Living in the cold with friends, hiding in the dark
But the drug abuse is fading out your spark
Omo, this is not your destiny, this is not your road
Come and let us help you carry this heavy load
Chiyanga, please come back home, twapapata sana
You are only nineteen, my beloved eldest mwana
Your future is in school, it is never too late
Don't let the cold streets decide your fate
Wazanji is watching, he needs you to lead
Ifwe we are crying, it's your love that we need
Cathberk is asking when you will return
For your academic dreams, let your spirit burn
They tell you the street is sweet, but that is all boza!
Come back to the family, make your mother proud, oga
Be the good boy we know, set the path so bright
Wazanji shouldn't walk in the dark of the night
Chiyanga, please come back home, twapapata sana
You are only nineteen, my beloved eldest mwana
Your future is in school, it is never too late
Don't let the cold streets decide your fate
Wazanji is watching, he needs you to lead
Ifwe we are crying, it's your love that we need
Twapapata...
Chiyanga, come home.
We love you, my boy.
(Yoh... come back home...)
