UFUKARA SI KILEMA LYRICS 
By Les Wanyika 

This song was composed by Ngereza Johnny while the band was touring Uganda and recorded in Nairobi in 1984. This song features a killer rhythm guitar by none other than the god of the East African rhythm guitar, the late Prof Omari Shaban.

Naamini unaenda utarudi oh
Hata kama sio leo wala Kesho eeh
Mimi wako Mama
Nawe wangu Cherie Mama
Mbona hivyo Mwenzangu Mama
Waniacha kisa nini oh
oh Bibi eh

Sio nia yangu niwe Maskini oh
Uamuzi wake Mungu eh Mama
Ufukara Oh Bibi eeh
Si Kilema Oh Cherie Mama
Naamini iko siku Mama
nitakuwa kama wale, fulani eeh

Kumbuka Mama Mwenyewe uliapa eeh
tutaishi tutenganishwe na Kifo eeh
Mi najuta sikujua,Oh Mama
hukuishi kimapenzi,Oh Mama

CHORUS

Eeeh,ukumbuke Mama, aaaah
Sikuwa hivyo Mwanzo, eeh
Dunia Kigeugeu, aaah
Leo hivi kesho vile, Mama

Eeeh,Ufukara si Kilema, aaaaah
Ndio Hali ya Dunia,hivyo
sitovunjika Moyo Mama yoyo
Siku yangu itafika na Mimi Oh
