NĨTŨSENG’AA YĨLA TWATATWA

(Tempted and tried)

1.

Nĩtũseng’aa yĩla twatatwa

Kĩla ĩvinda myũnthĩ yonthe,

Yĩla kwĩ amwe twĩkalanasya;

Mate kũthĩnĩa eki ma naĩ.

 

Chorus:

Asa we mwene nũkamanya,

Asa we mwene nũkamanya,

Thangaai anaasa mwĩthwe kyeninĩ

Nĩtũkamanya maũndũ onthe.

Yĩla kĩkw’ũ kyoosa amwe maitũ,

Tũtiawa na kyeva ngoonĩ;

Na tũkĩseng’a amwe makĩthi,

Na kũtũtia myaka na myaka.

Yesũ akw’iie twĩthwe na thayũ.

No kavinda kanini oke,

Thĩna wa nthĩ ĩno ũkathela vyũ,

Yĩla twĩvika mũsyĩ kwake.

Yĩla twĩmwona Mwĩaĩi okĩte.

Kuma mũsyĩ wake ĩtunĩ;

Tũkamũthaũa ũtheunĩ wake, .

Nĩtũkamanya maũndũ onthe.

(Amen)
