Author Topic: Baba Yetu! The best video game theme of all time.  (Read 955 times)

We're singing it in Chorus. I'm so excited.

Baba yetu, Yetu uliye
Mbinguni yetu, Yetu amina!
Baba yetu Yetu uliye
Mjina lako elitukuzwe.

Utupe leo chakula chetu
Tunachohitaji utusamehe
Makosa yetu, hey!
Kama nasi tunavyowasamehe
Waliotukosea usitutie
Katika majaribu, lakini
Utuokoe, na yule, muovu e milele!

Baba yetu, Yetu uliye
Mbinguni yetu, Yetu amina!
Baba yetu Yetu uliye
Mjina lako elitukuzwe (Baba yetu)

Baba yetu, Yetu uliye
Mbinguni yetu, Yetu amina!
Baba yetu Yetu uliye
Mjina lako elitukuzwe (Mbiguni yetu)

Ufalme wako (UFALME WAKO)
Ufike utakalo (UTAKALOOOO HEY)
Lifanyike duniani kama mbinguni amina

ooooooooooooh

BABA YETU YETU ULIYE
MBINGUNI YETU YETU AMINA
BABA YETU YETU ULIYE
MJINA LAKO ELITUKUZWE

BABA YETU YETU ULIYE
MBINGUNI YETU YETU AMINA
BABA YETU YETU ULIYE
MJINA LAKO ELITUKUZWE

Utupe leo chakula chetu
Tunachohitaji utusamehe
Makosa yetu, hey!
Kama nasi tunavyowasamehe
Waliotukosea usitutie
Katika majaribu, lakini
Utuokoe, na yule, muovu e milele!

Baba yetu yetu uliye! (Yetu amina)
Mjina lako elitukuzwe! (Baba yetu)
Baba yetu yetu uliye! (Yetu amina)
Mjina lako elitukuzwe! (Baba yetu)

After translating I don't see how this is a video game theme, it's a religious song from what I see.

It's a Swahili adaptation of the Lord's Prayer. I'm not a Christian but I still love it for the rhythm and tone.

Our Father, who art our our Heaven, our Amen Our Father who art in thy name elitukuzwe. Give us today our food What we need to forgive us our trespasses, hey! As we forgive Trespass lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from, and that, e evil forever Our Father, who art our our Heaven, our Amen Our Father who art in thy name elitukuzwe (Our Father) Our Father, who art our our Heaven, our Amen Our Father who art in thy name elitukuzwe (Heaven us) Thy Kingdom (Your Kingdom) Come you want to do (UTAKALOOOO hey) Be Done on earth as in heaven, Amen ooooooooooooh OUR FATHER OUR WHO ART IN HEAVEN OUR OUR Amina OUR FATHER OUR Liye YOUR NAME ELITUKUZWE OUR FATHER OUR WHO ART IN HEAVEN OUR OUR Amina OUR FATHER OUR Liye YOUR NAME ELITUKUZWE Give us today our food What we need to forgive us our trespasses, hey! As we forgive Trespass lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from, and one, an evil e forever Our Father which art! (Our Amen) name elitukuzwe! (Our Father) Our Father who art! (Our Amen) name elitukuzwe! (Our Father)


Ok, I guess it doesn't translate that well. The Pedia says

Our Father, Jesus who art
in Heaven. Amen!
Our Father, Jesus
Hallowed be thy name.
Give us this day our daily bread,
Forgive us of
our trespasses
As we forgive others
Who trespass against us
Lead us not into temptation, but
deliver us from the evil one forever.
Thy kingdom come, thy will be done
On Earth as it is in Heaven. (Amen)

Ah, okay.
I need to read.
forget your stuff bitch, reed reed READ
this has been night fox on reead

This song always annoyed the stuff out of me on Civ IV. I think because of how loud the song was and how you couldn't stop it unless you started a game.
