Friend Zone Lyrics Translation – Harmonize | Ibraah
Cukie Dady and Rajabu Abdulkahali Ibrahim describe how a playful joke becomes true love. They write that now, calling her ‘friend’ brings pain and unwanted change.
Story Za Wapenzi Wetu TukasimulianaWe used to share stories about our lovers.
How To Make Love TukafundishanaWe even taught each other how to make love.
Ingali Bado WanaBack when we were still young and naive.
Tukacheka Sana Mimi NaweYou and I laughed so much.
Sasa Kuna Mtu Anasema Mi Namsema SanaNow someone says I talk about them too much.
Nachokumbuka Tulimsema SanaAll I remember is how much we used to gossip.
Ingali Bado WanaBack when we were still young.
Tukacheka Sana Mimi NaweYou and I laughed so much.
Pindi Bado Tupo MarafikiBack when we were still friends.
Waloshibana Kwenye Raha Na DhikiInseparable through joy and struggle.
Alikuwa Bonge La ShabikiShe was my biggest fan.
Nyie Dunia Mbona HaitabirikiPeople, why is the world so unpredictable?
I Remember Them Say Love Is WickedI remember them saying love is wicked.
Eti Leo Simu Yake SiishikiTo think today I can’t even reach her on the phone.
Hata Yangu Kuna Simu HazifikiEven some of my calls don’t get through to her.
Bora Tungebaki MarafikiIt would have been better if we stayed friends.
Basi Tena Ataniita Binamu Kinyama Cha HamuShe calls me ‘Cousin’ but desires me like a craving.
Ikabidi Ni Come Come ComeSo I just had to come, come, come.
Ooh Alivyiona Tamu Kajitoa UfahamuOh, once she tasted the sweetness, she lost her mind.
Hataki Tena Zamu Zamu ZamuShe doesn’t want to take turns anymore.
Hataki Tena Vya ZamuShe wants nothing to do with casual flings.
Anasema AnanipendaShe says she loves me.
Mchezo Ameupenda KweliShe truly loves the game.
Hataki Tena Vya ZamuShe isn’t interested in turn-taking.
Anasema AnanipendaShe says she loves me.
Eti Amezama KweliShe has truly fallen deep in love.
Hataki ZamuShe doesn’t want turns.
Anasema AnanipendaShe says she loves me.
Mchezo Ameupenda KweliShe really loves the game.
Hataki ZamuShe doesn’t want turns.
Anasema AnanipendaShe says she loves me.
Eti Amezama KweliShe has truly fallen deep.
Hakudhani Kama Tungekuwa WachumbaShe never thought we’d become lovers.
Alijua Tu Anapita Shida Moyo UmemdundaShe thought she was just passing through, but her heart started racing.
Utani Utamu Umegeuka True LoveThe sweet joke has turned into true love.
Eti Anamiss Mi Hata Nimshike MashavuShe says she even misses me holding her cheeks.
Nilikua Namuita Best FriendI used to call her ‘Best Friend’.
Siku Hizi Nikimuita Rafiki HapendiThese days if I call her ‘friend,’ she doesn’t like it.
Nilichompa Kimemteka AnatekenyekaWhat I gave her has captivated her, she’s all excited.
Ajatekenywa AnachekaShe laughs even without being tickled.
Akipiga Simu Ananiita Binamu Kinyama Cha HamuWhen she calls, she calls me ‘Cousin’ with a hungry desire.
She Says Baby Come Come ComeShe says baby come, come, come.
Ooh Ololoo Mbona Tamu Kajitoa UfahamuOh my, why is it so sweet? She lost her mind.
