Verse 1:
You are my strength when I am weak,
You are my voice when I can't speak,
You are the song that I will sing
(echoes...imba, wimbo, imba wimbo)
You are the love that never leaves

Asante (ah-sahn-teh)

Ngi-ya-bonga
Natotela!

You, you, you...
Give me water from the well

You, you, you
Give me water from the well
It never, never, never run dry
I was blind but now I see (see, see, see)
I was lost and now am found
