إِلٰهِي كَيْفَ أَدْعُوكَ وَأَنَا أَنَا
Ilāhī kayfa ad‘ūka wa ana ana
O my God, how can I pray You and I am what I am?
Mungu wangu, nitakuombaje nami niko hivi nilivyo?
وَكَيْفَ أَقْطَعُ رَجَائِي مِنْكَ وَأَنْتَ أَنْتَ
Wa kayfa aqṭa‘u rajā’ī minka wa anta anta
But how can I give up hope from You and You are what You are?
Na nitakatataje tamaa na Wewe nawe uko vile ulivyo?
إِلٰهِي إِذَا لَمْ أَسْأَلْكَ فَتُعْطِيَنِي
Ilāhī idhā lam as’alka fatu‘ṭiyanī
O my God, if I do not beg You so that You may give me,
Mungu wangu, nisipokuomba ili Unipe,
فَمَنْ ذَا الَّذِي أَسْأَلُهُ فَيُعْطِيَنِي
Faman dhalladhī as’aluhu fayu‘ṭīnī
then whom else will I beg to give me?
ni nani mwingine nitakayemuomba anipe?
إِلٰهِي إِذَا لَمْ أَدْعُوكَ فَتَسْتَجِيبَ لِي
Ilāhī idhā lam ad‘uka fatastajība lī
O my God, if I do not supplicate to You so that You may respond to me,
Mungu wangu, nisipokuomba ili Unijibu,
فَمَنْ ذَا الَّذِي أَدْعُوهُ فَيَسْتَجِيبُ لِي
Faman dhalladhī ad‘ūhu fayastajību lī
whom else will I then supplicate to respond to me?
