[Verse 1]
Moyo wangu unalia
My heart cries
Kila nikikukumbuka
Every time I remember you
Maisha yanaumiza
Life hurts
Bila wewe hapa sasa
Without you here now
[Chorus]
Peter, maumivu haya
Peter, this pain
Yanachoma roho yangu
Burns my soul
Natamani urudi
I wish you would come back
Nijue wewe kwangu
So I know you are mine
[Verse 2]
Nami huona giza
And I see darkness
Kila machoni pako
Every time in your eyes
Kumbukumbu zinanitesa
Memories torment me
Sioni njia ya amani
I see no path to peace
[Chorus]
Peter, maumivu haya
Peter, this pain
Yanachoma roho yangu
Burns my soul
Natamani urudi
I wish you would come back
Nijue wewe kwangu
So I know you are mine
[Bridge]
Safari ni ndefu sana
The journey is very long
Na upweke unanimaliza
And loneliness is finishing me
Nataka amani
I want peace
[Chorus]
Peter, maumivu haya
Peter, this pain
Yanachoma roho yangu
Burns my soul
Natamani urudi
I wish you would come back
Nijue wewe kwangu
So I know you are mine
