NUGGETS OF LOVE

By Abigael Jepng'etich, Form 1 East

Love is a universal migraine

A bright stain blurring the vision

Blotting out sense and reason


Such are the symptoms of true love;

Leanness, jealousy, laggardness in thought.

Sweet omens and nightmares.

Listening for a knock, waiting for  a sign .

 


For a touch of her fingers, in a darkened room,

For a searching look, take courage lover,

Could you endure such pain at hand?

SAUTI YANGU MSIKIE

Na Michele Jebet, Kidato Cha Tatu  Kilio changu hakika, kitafika mwisho lini? Hakika kimeshindika, nitalia hadi lini? Nchi hii yangu hakika, Nisaidieni jamani, Naipasa yangu sauti, isikike kote kote   Kwani uovu humu nchini, pakubwa umeenea, Wapo wengi chinichini, maovu huvumilia, Na wanafahamu dini, badala ya kukemea, Naipasa yangu sauti, isikike kotekote.   Kila pembe humu nchini, ufisadi umezidi, Mambo gani tena haya, tukomeshe ufisadi, Tujikaze pasina haya,na tuache uhasidi, Naipasa yangu sauti, isikike kotekote.   Kila pembe humu nchini, lazidi kila dakika, Hakika tunaumia, mateso kila tabaka, Tukijikaza kuzuia, tusizidi kuteseka, Naipasa yangu sauti, isikike kote kote.   Kuna tena ubaguzi, mbaguano wa kabila, Piya kwa walaazizi, yabidi tuache ghafla, Kwani hili si azizi, kubagua makabila, Naipasa yangu sauti, isikike kotekote.   Amani kila pahala, hakuna kwa urahisi, Kwani wataka mlungula, upate kwa urahisi, Bali nawasihi kila, tuache sasa upesi, Naipasa yangu sauti, isikike kote

Na Michelle Jebet, Kidato Cha Tatu  Bahati mi’ nilipata, kwa kutunzwa naye mama, Yeye alinipakata, kwa mikono yake mama, Malezi niliyopata, ni kutoka kwake mama, Katika yangu maisha, shukrani kwake mama,   Nilipendwa naye mama, mwenye moyo mkujufu, Nilibebwa na mama, aliye yeye mchanagamfu, Alinifaidi wangu mama, miye leo ninamsifu, Katika yangu maisha, shukrani kwako mama,   Ye’ alinibembeleza, nikiwa sina amani, Piya ye aliniviza, aliye kama ye nani?
