Mpenzi mwandani mahabubu  Naanza kwa kukuomba samahani  Kuandika kwa lugha hii legevu  Nilijaribu lakini sikuweza  Kuyasarifu maneno matamu  Kwa lugha muafaka ya kimapenzi  Mara nyingine ninaahidi  Kutakalamu kwa lugha inayofaa  Bidii nitafanya  Kuyaelewa machungu na matamu yanguKwa lugha tukufu isiyo yangu  Badala ya hiki kishairi duni,  Nitakwandikia poem  Nitajitahidi mpenzi  Maneno kuyaelewa  Si kwa jicho la kwangu kijijni  Bali kwa mboni na urazini wa kule kulikotukuka  Nitayatongoza machozi yangu  Kububujika kwa vokali na konsonanti za kimombo  Makali ya moyo wangu kulipuka kwa Kireno,  Kitaliani au Kituruki  Badala ya huu msamiati nilokujazia hapa,  Nitakuwa na vocabulary Mpenzi nitakusifu  Kwa majina ya mimea, wanyama na ndege  Wasiopatikana kwetuNitakutungia koja  Nilirembe kwa vito na maua ya nchi za baridi  Au mimea ya jangwaniNisamehe kwa sasa mpenzi  Naikumbuka tu lugha yangu  Ilonitoa tumboni mwa mama  Ninajua mpenzi  Ni vigumu kwangu kujie
