Pawa Lyrics Meaning Mbosso | Room Number 3
Mbosso compares love to a bottle of beer that makes him stagger drunk. He writes about finishing dictionary pages just to praise his lover. The lyrics mention clinging like a lizard on a wall while losing power.
Kamusi Namaliza Kurasa KukusifiaI’m finishing pages of the dictionary just to praise you.
Matusi Naiona Basata WakinifungiaI can see ‘Basata’ the Arts Council banning me if I spoke crudely.
Theluthi Hizi Raha Ninazopata Mia Fil Mia AhThe portions of joy I’m getting are one hundred percent pure.
Mjusi Ukuta Wa Plasta Na UparamiaI’m like a lizard on a plaster wall, just climbing higher.
Na Kama Penzi Ni Chupa La BiaAnd if love’s a bottle of beer,
Nipe Sana Niwe Mlevi Ni Yumbe-Yumbe NjiaGive me plenty so I get drunk and stumble on the path.
Kwa Maana We Mlezi Na UnanijuliaBecause you’re my caretaker and you know me best,
Hawana Hawawezi Pakukuibia DearThey don’t have a way to steal you from me, dear.
Pawa Pawa Naishiwa PawaPower, power, I’m running out of power.
Penzi Lako Mizani Mizito Naishiwa PawaYour love is a heavy scale, and I’m losing my strength.
Pawa Pawa Naishiwa PawaPower, power, I’m running out of power.
Penzi Lako Mizani Mizito Naishiwa PawaYour love is a heavy scale, and I’m losing my strength.
Pawa Pawa Pawa Naishiwa PawaPower, power, power, I’m running out of power.

Pawa Pawa Naishiwa PawaPower, power, I’m running out of power.
Penzi Lako Mizani Mizito Naishiwa PawaYour love is a heavy scale, and I’m losing my strength.
Nilifeli Secondary Kwendaga ChuoI failed secondary school and didn’t make it to college,
Ila Kufeli Penzi Lako Sina Hilo ChaguoBut failing in your love isn’t an option for me.
Yeremia Mstari Nifunue Ufunuo OhReveal a revelation to me from a verse in Jeremiah.
Nikupambe Kwa Matari Mwilini Iwe NguoI’ll adorn you with ‘Matari’ tambourine rhythms as if they were clothes.
Na Kama Penzi Ni Chupa La BiaAnd if love’s a bottle of beer,
Nipe Sana Niwe Mlevi Ni Yumbe-Yumbe NjiaGive me plenty so I get drunk and stumble on the path.
Kwa Maana We Mlezi Na UnanijuliaBecause you’re my caretaker and you know me best,
Hawana Hawawezi Pakukuibia DearThey don’t have a way to steal you from me, dear.
