Faith, Forgive Me

[Instrumental Break]
Faith, my daughter, I Meshack Asiachi have carried this for years,
Ukweli mzito moyoni, umenitesa kwa machozi na huzuni,
You were born in moments that were complicated, unclear,
Nilikosa nguvu za kupigania upendo wako, kukuleta karibu nami.

[Verse 2]
[Instrumental Break]
[Instrumental Break]
[Instrumental Break]
[Instrumental Break]
You came to visit in twenty-eleven’s light,
Mtoto mnyenyekevu, mwenye macho ya kutamani maisha,
Nilikuwa na dada zako nyumbani, lakini bado sikuona haki,
Nilipaswa kukukumbatia mwanangu, kwa nguvu yangu yote, bila woga.

[Pre-Chorus]

[Instrumental Break]
[Instrumental Break]
[Instrumental Break]
And now the years have flown like shadows through the door,
Miaka inapita kimya, inanirudisha kwenye maumivu ya nyuma,
Your sisters Joy Maline, Diana Dion and Daniella Loy ask about you, and it shakes me to the core,
Daniella sasa yuko karibu kuanza Form Four, anakua haraka mno.

[Chorus]

[Instrumental Break]
Faith, can you hear my heart tonight?
Ninaomba unisamehe, moyo wangu uko wazi kabisa,
Samahani kwa umbali na miaka ambayo sikuwa upande wako,
Ukifungua nafasi kidogo tu, nitaingia kwa upole na heshima,
Faith, my daughter, let me love you right.

[Instrumental Break]
Your mother Eunice walked the journey with courage strong and true,
Alibeba mzigo niliopaswa kubeba, kwa upendo wa kweli,
I missed your early laughter, all the dreams you grew,
Ninaishi na majuto haya, nikitamani ningekuwa hapo tangu awali.

[Pre-Chorus]
[Instrumental Break]
[Instrumental Break]
[Instrumental Break]
[Instrumental Break]
Ninasikia maswali ya dada zako, moyo unaniuma polepole,
Wananikumbusha kumbukumbu ambazo siwezi kuzirudisha,
Nimejifunza kutokana na makosa yangu, kwa unyenyekevu na maumivu,
Na ninaomba nafasi nyingine, kama moyo wako utaniruhusu.

[Chorus]
[Instrumental Break]
[Instrumental Break]
[Instrumental Break]
[Instrumental Break]
Faith, can you hear my heart tonight?
Ninaomba msamaha kwa ukimya, kwa maumivu, kwa kiburi changu,
Samahani kwa kukosa kukuongoza, na kwa kutofika wakati ulihitaji,
Ukifungua nafasi ndogo tu, nitaingia kwa upole na mwanga mpole,
Faith, my daughter, let me love you right.

[Bridge]
[Instrumental Break]
[Instrumental Break]
[Instrumental Break]
[Instrumental Break]
Nikipewa nafasi moja tu, nitaishika kwa upole na uaminifu,
Sitakuharakisha kupona, sitadai zaidi ya uwezo wako,
Nitakusikiliza, nitajua ndoto zako, kilicho kwenye moyo wako,
Na nitakupenda kwa wema wenye uvumilivu, upendo wa kuanza upya.

[Final Chorus]
[Instrumental Break]
[Instrumental Break]
[Instrumental Break]
[Instrumental Break]
Faith, can you hear my heart tonight?
Nimekujia kwa mwanga mpole, nikiwa nanyenyekea mbele yako,
Samahani kwa miaka niliyokosea, na kwa kutokuwepo kukulinda,
Ukifungua nafasi kidogo tu, nitaingia kwa upole na heshima,
Faith, my daughter, let me love you right.
I truly so sorry for letting you down.
[Outro]

[Instrumental Break]
[Instrumental Break]
Wewe ni damu yangu, moyo wangu, sehemu yangu iliyopotea,
Nikipewa nafasi, hata ndogo, hata tulivu,
Nitazitumia siku zangu kuthibitisha kuwa upendo bado unaweza kuunganisha,
Faith, mwanangu, nipe ruhusa nikuonyeshe upendo wa kweli.
