Ginelle Gordon - Chasing A Dream

A song I wrote in the Shona language. It's actually a prayer: Verse: "There are sick people in the hospitals, There are others, sick in their homes." Chorus: "Hear their cries Lord, Lord please answer the prayers that they pray." Verse 2: "There are those who are having a hard time, they don't have a place to live. There are those who are sad, they lost their loved ones." Verse 3: "There are those who have lost their peace, their faith is now weak, please send them preachers of the word to encourage them." 

Nobody Like Jesus

Inzwai kuchema kwavo - Hear their cries O Lord

A song I wrote and recorded with the LFAM Worship Team in Raleigh, North Carolina, USA, asking God to bless this home. All guitars, keyboards and instruments by Evans Munyuki. Song written by Evans Munyuki

Lyrics and Translation: 
(This song is in the Shona language which is spoken in Zimbabwe. The English translation is included below): 

Verse1:
Hama dzangu dzapera kutsakatika, pamusha pano
(My relatives are perishing in this home)
Dzimwe dzacho dzongo gura masango, pamusha pano
(The others are hitting the road, leaving this home)

Chorus 1:
Musha uno rangove dongo
(This home is now a deserted empty space)
Tumirai vatsvene vandipewo chandingabata
(Please send the saints so they can give me something that can sustain me)

Verse 2:
Gore rino hatina kumbo kohwa, pamusha pano
(This year we had a very bad harvest, at this home)
Mbeu yose yakapiswa nezuva, pamusha pano
(the entire crop was hit by a bad drought and the hot sun, at this home)

Chorus 2:
Musha uno unoda ruoko rwenyu Ishe
(This home needs your hand Lord)
Huyai musiki mutipewo makomborerero
(Come Oh Lord and give us your blessings)

Bridge:
Munondivatisa pamafuro manyoro
(You make me lie down in green pastures)
Munondisesedza pamvura ino zorodza
(You lead me by the still waters)
Munondi fambisa panzira yo hutsvene
(You lead me in the path of righteousness)
Mumupata worufu ini handimbochki, Nokuti muneni
(In the valley of the shadow of death, I am not afraid, because you are with me)
Tsvimbo yenyu ishe ne mudonzvo wenyu Ishe
(Your rod and your staff Lord)
Zvinondi nyaradza, zvinondi sesedza
(They comfort me, they lead me on)
Pamberi pavavengi munondipa tafura
(In the presence of my enemies, you prepare a table before me)
Ini ndichagara mumba yenyu mambo
(And I will dwell in your house My Lord)

Repeat Chorus 2
Musha uno unoda ruoko rwenyu Ishe
(This home needs your hand Lord)
Huyai musiki mutipewo makomborerero
(Come Oh Lord and give us your blessings)

Ending:
Mwari wangu ndimi simba rangu ndimi nhowo yangu
(My God you are my strength, you are my hiding place)
Ndakatarisira ruoko rwenyu, pamusha pano
(I am looking forward to seeing your hand, in this home)

Pamusha pano (At this home)

Ode to Cali-life and love. If theres a paradise down here, it must be southern California.
