Verse 1:
Niko peke yangu, ndani ya giza,
Nifikirie, matajiri wa roho,
Mapenzi yetu, kashfa ya baharini,
Kila kipande ni ukanda, chokoza hisia.
Chorus:
Sawa, sawa, nakupenda,
Hata kama mawingu yanakuja,
Sawa, sawa, natakutaka,
Katika wimbo wa penzi langu.
Verse 2:
Mchana na usiku, tunavuka milima,
Kukumbuka nyakati, za raha na huzuni,
Lugha zetu zinachemka, mtaa wa Temeke,
Mapenzi haya, si kama hadithi za zamani.
Chorus:
Sawa, sawa, nakupenda,
Hata kama mawingu yanakuja,
Sawa, sawa, natakutaka,
Katika wimbo wa penzi langu.
Bridge:
Kama baharini, veterani wa mawimbi,
Ninataka uelewe, si mchezo,
Nitatulia, katika macho yako,
Jambo hili, ni dhana safi.
Verse 3:
Kila jua linapochomoza,
Nasho, nadra, ulili nguo zangu,
Nitatembea, kwenye wimbo wa upendo,
Sawa, tutaelewa, tutashinda mizozo.
Chorus:
Sawa, sawa, nakupenda,
Hata kama mawingu yanakuja,
Sawa, sawa, natakutaka,
Katika wimbo wa penzi langu.
Outro:
Nikiangalia nyuma, kuna historia,
Wewe ni wa pekee, mioyo inoni moja,
Sawa, sawa, mapenzi yetu,
Nitakupenda, milele daima.
