Joel Lwaga:

Baba umejua kunifurahisha 

Baba umenifuta machozi 

Daddy oh, umejua kunifurahisha 

Baba nitakusifu milele 


Umerudisha tabasamu langu usoni 

Umerejesha na furaha yangu moyoni 

Umenijibu kwa wakati nisiyodhani 

Baba umejua kunifurahisha 

Niliyeitwa sina maana 

Nimefanyika baraka 

Niliyeonekana sifai, umeniheshimisha 

Umenipa sababu ya kujijali 

Yakukutukuza aah 

Baba umejua kunifurahisha 


Baba umejua kunifurahisha 

Baba umenifuta machozi 

Daddy oh, umejua kunifurahisha 

Baba nitakusifu milele 


Chris Shalom:

Father to the fatherless 

Look at what you've done for me 

You wipe my tears from my eyes 

Look at what you've done for me 

The chains and shackles that held me down 

You've got it out of me 

Oh what a life, beautiful life given me 

Baba umejua kunifurahisha 

Baba nitakusifu milele 


Baba umejua kunifurahisha 

Baba umenifuta machozi 

Daddy oh, umejua kunifurahisha 

Baba nitakusifu milele x2 


Ooh umejua kunifurahisha (Babaa) 

Umejua kunifurahisha (Babaa) 

You've taken away the pain (Babaa oh) 

Umeondoa huzuni yangu (Babaa oh)
