Marggie Dawn's song 'Nena Nami' is a Swahili Christian worship song that expresses a deep longing to hear God's voice. The lyrics convey a desire to be guided by God rather than by the voices of people, and an openness to understand His purpose. The repeated plea 'Bwana nena nami' (Lord speak to me) reflects a prayerful posture of surrender and attentiveness. The song focuses on the intimate relationship between the believer and God, emphasizing the importance of listening to His direction daily.

Nena nami, nena nami Bwana 

Sema Bwana na moyo wangu 

Lisikie sauti yako 

Bwana nena, nena nami 


Nimechoshwa na sauti za watu 

Natamani sauti yako 

Inielekeze kwa njia zako 

Bwana nena, nena nami 


Nena nami, nena nami Bwana 

Sema Bwana na moyo wangu 

Lisikie sauti yako 

Bwana nena, nena nami 


Moyo wangu uko wazi Bwana 

Bwana sema nikusikie 

Nifahamu kusudi lako 

Bwana nenam, nena nami 

Ninachokitaka ni kukusikia 

Ukisema na moyo wangu 

Kila siku ya maisha yangu 

Bwana nena nami 


Nena nami, nena nami Bwana 

Sema Bwana na moyo wangu 

Lisikie sauti yako 

Bwana nena, nena nami 


Bwana nena, nena nami
