(A soft, warm acoustic guitar melody fades in)
(Gentle brush strokes on the snare)
Rhodah
Ooooh yeees!
Ooh! Rhoda
Nikukonda yaah aaaah
(rhoda) (rhoda) oh! yes
VERSE 1
Rhoda mutemwikwa wandi
kutika nkushimikile fyonse ifili ku
mutima wandi, ukufuma epo nakwishibila
umutima wandi wabafye uwa nsansa
pantu nalisangamo ubunonshi mu chitemwiko
chobe, ooooh Rhodah nde tasha sana pa
kwisa mu buumi bwandi, uli palo
Kuchoka pamene ninakuzibila Rhodah
You're always in mind i've spent a lifetime
searching for a heart that feels like home
Then you walked into my world, and I’m never
gonna roam the way you laugh at nothing, the
way you brush your hair there’s a quiet kind of
magic in the way you’re standing there
I used to be a drifter, just a tumbleweed in flight
But now I’m anchored steady in the softness of your light
CHORUS
Ooh Rhodah Nalikutemwa
ukufuma panshi ya mutima wandi
lyonse nkabila ulebafye pambali
yandi, uku kwata iwe lipalo, uuuuuh
yeeees! Rhodah mutemwikwa wandi
waikala ku mutima wandi lyonse
nalikutemwa ukufuma panshi ya
mutima wandi
