There is a woman down this hill
Evil and beastly
Atapaa popote kukuweka majani
Uchawi ameulewa ni wake usanii
There is a woman down this hill
Everyone fears
Mapenzi alikwara yuko peke yake
Usifikiri rafiki… wivu ndio wake
There is a woman down this hill
Hana panga, macho ndio silaha
Watoto awatupa kaburini, wazazi hofu awajaza
There is a woman down this hill
Hamwogopi Allah!
Bibilia haimtishi, aibeba mwenyewe!
There is a woman down this hill
Karibu na makaburini
Atakutoa nduki, urafiki hatamani
