Haman the Amalekite wanted to kill all Yahudi (Esther and Mordechai story)

[R. Hartono]

Lyrics and meaning :

Waraka wa Amani
Uliowafanya wayahudi washindwe kula na kunywa wakati ule
Waraka wa Amani
Uliowafanya wayahudi washindwe kula na kunywa wakati ule

Waraka ulioandikwa wayahudi wauwawe
Waraka uliotangazwa Moldekai anyongwe
Waraka ulioandikwa wayahudi wauwawe
Waraka uliotangazwa Moldekai anyongwe

Esther akiwa kwenye nyumba ya kifalme, Esther akiwa ni Malkia
Ndipo Moldekai alirarua mavazi yake, alivaa mavazi ya magunia, ilionyesha ya kwamba anaomboleza
Akasimama mbele ya Malkia, akamwambia Esther mama naomba sikia

Ujue umekuja Esther kwa wakati huu, hakuna wakati mwingine waweza kutuokoa
Ujue umechaguliwa kuwa Malkia kwa wakati huu, hakuna wakati mwingine waweza kutuokoa
Esther kwa maombolezo, huku akisindikizwa na maombi ya wayahudi
Esther aha, alikwenda…

 

Letter of Peace
You made the Jews unable to eat and drink at that time
Letter of Peace
You made the Jews unable to eat and drink at that time

A document written for the Jews to be executed
The decree proclaimed Mordecai hanged
A document written for the Jews to be executed
The decree proclaimed Mordecai hanged
Esther being in the royal house, Esther being the Queen
Then Mordecai rent his clothes, and put on sackcloth, and mourned for his father
He stood before the Queen, and said to Esther the mother, I beseech thee
Know you have come Esther at this time, there is no other time they can save us
Know you have been chosen to be the Queen at this time, there is no other time that can save us
Esther in mourning, accompanied by Jewish prayers
Esther aha, she went…
