Mwema Lyrics by Paul Clement

---

[Verse 1: Paul Clement]
Wema wako si kwa wakati wa furaha tu
Wema wako pia wakati
Hata wa machozi
Wema wako haupimiki
Kwa majira fulani tu
Wema wako ni kila wakati na kila nyakati
Hata sasa ni Mwema
Tunapo imba ni Mwema
Tunapo lia ni Mwema
Tunapo cheka ni Mwema
Tunapo panda ni Mwema
Tunapo vuna ni Mwema

[ Chorus ]
Wewe ni Mwema
Umwemaaaa
Wewe ni Mwema
Eeehh
Wewe ni Mwema
Umwemaaaa
Wewe ni Mwema
Mungu wa baraka
(Wewe ni Mwema
Umwemaaaa
Wewe ni Mwema x2)
(Unatupenda, unatupenda
Wewe wewee
Wewe ni Mwema x2)

[Verse 2: Bella Kombo]
Wema wako ni kama mchanga siwezi kuhesabu
Wema wako ni kama maji
Yanayomiminika bila kukoma
Mtu akinge ama asikinge
Hayataacha kutoka
Hata sasa ni Mwema
Tunapoimba ni Mwema
Tunapolia ni Mwema
Tunapo cheka ni Mwema

[Chorus]
Wewe ni Mwema
Umwemaaa
Wewe ni Mwema,
Unatupenda,unatupenda
Wewe ni Mwema.

Mwema translated in English

[Verse 1: Paul Clement]
Your goodness is not only in good times
Your goodness is also seen in times of grief
Your goodness is not only measured  in certain seasons
Your goodness is in every moment and in every season

Even now You are good
As we sing, You are good
As we cry, You are good
As we laugh, You are good
As we sow, You are good
As we harvest, You are good

[Chorus]
You are good
You are good
You are good
You love us
You are good

[Verse 2: Bella Kombo]
Your goodness is like the sand, it cannot be counted
Your goodness is like running water that flows endlessly
Whether or not somebody fetches, it never ceases to flow

Even now, You are good
As we sing, You are good
As we cry, You are good
As we laugh, You are good
As we sow, You are good
As we harvest, You are good

[Chorus]
You are good
You are good
You are good
You love us
You are good
