APPLE OF MY EYE
As smoke is released from the fire
It rises up to the atmosphere and never come down
Am still rising up and I do not expect to go back down for your love
Although I feel like am on the top of the mountain but still am climbing
Climbing a mountain of love
Love of you an apple of my eye.
You are sweet as honey
Carrot not stick
I cannot bite the hand that feeds me
I do not want to be hungry any more while the food is on my hands
And I am feeling lucky to be with you
An apple of my eye.
In the garden
The garden of all kind of attractive flowers
Flowers with sweetest perfume
And the cool environment
The place I am staying with you
An apple of my eye.
I cannot let our love die
Doomandgloom to attack the sky
While the sun is still shinning
I do not want to lose you
Because I love you, and I will be with you forever
You an apple of my eye.

Mussa Shikome Poem
SHE IS MINE
Once you see her pass aside
She is bitter more than you can imagine
She is poisonous more than a snake
More than a scorpion
I cannot say she a killer
But it may happen by emergence
Although to me she is sweet more than bee’s honey
More than everything in the world
I warn you off
Never approach her
She is mine.

Mussa Shikome Poem
GIFT
Ooooh gift
What secret is within you gift
You change people’s mind
You change people’s altitude
You change people’s feelings
What secret is within you gift.
My wife is always happy
Even if I have done something wrong
When I brought a gift
Everything is fine
What secret is within you gift.
What are your limitations?
You may be good or bad
Depending upon your use
You may be given different names
Some are yours some are not
What secret is within you gift.
When well used
You stimulate working
You create a canal
By which workers flow in it willingly
What secret is within you gift.
A kid is happy
When seeing his/her parent comes with a gift
What secret is within you gift.
Some are corrupting
And call it a gift
Tell me are you the one with another name
Or you are not
What secret is within you gift.
Dear gift
What secret is within you
What are your limitations?
When are you called gift and when not
Oooh gift
What secret is within you gift
Gift, gift, gift, gift
What secret is within you gift
Please tell me………………….

Mussa Shikome Poem
DUMP ME
Dump me wherever you want
Whether in waterfalls, ocean or dam
Whether I will survive or die
In heavy forest, over tall building or tower
Just dump me wherever you want.
And you will bear the pains I will suffer
Because I hope God will be on my side
Whether I will be eaten by wild animals
Or evacuated by wild hunters
Just dump me wherever you want.
In life seeking process
You told me not to live in foreigner’s house
Instead of joining my family while struggling
Where I will get comfortable life
And you have betrayed me, now
Just dump me wherever you want.
Remember wherever I go
Whatever I will face
But I will remain your son
So if you wish
Just dump me wherever you want.

Mussa Shikome Poem
I DO NOT THINK
I do not think if I will betray my family
I do not think if I will lose hope
I do not think if I will kill anybody’s dream
I do not think if I will be a lazy worker
I do not think if I will be a bad leader
I do not think if I will cause trouble to others
Only I think am needed because I am unique like Tanzanite.

Mussa Shikome Poem
TUNU ISOKIFANI
Kwa fahari najigamba, mataifa natangaza,
Mahari kote natamba, penye nuru hatagiza,
Mnene hata mwembamba, sifa zote namaliza,
Ni tunu isokifani, kuzaliwa Afrika.
Chakula changu asili, matunda tele nachuma,
Chastahili kimwili, cha wengine ntalalama,
Kisotiwa kemikali, huwezi tamani tema,
Ni tunu isokifani, kuzaliwa Afrika.
Rangi yangu maridhawa, watambua walimwengu,
Rangi ile ya uzawa, na sikama ya kizungu,
Raha nakshi kutiwa, na nyeusi rangi yangu,
Ni tunu isokifani, kuzaliwa Afrika.
Wajiona takataka, kutamani visovyao,
Puani vinawatoka, na visokoma vilio,
Amakweli waumbuka, vyawakaba kwenye koo,
Ni tunu isokifani, kuzaliwa Afrika.
Nimetulia Mawenzi, mevuka vingi vilima,
Ni zamu yao washenzi, mizigo kwa wao mama,
Nyuso zenye makunyanzi, watembea kiinama,
Ni tunu isokifani, kuzaliwa Afrika.
Uzuri wa kitu sasa, waja kwa historia,
Kosa kurudia kosa, la Ndugu alokosea,
Jikinge na hili kosa, na tao kufuatia,
Ni tunu isokifani, kuzaliwa Afrika.

Mussa Shikome Poem
SCOLA
Scola,
Life is a war
You fight something you do not see
But you feel it
Only you have to win the skirmish.
Scola,
Life is a journey
The way must be created
Whether by you or any other
Sometime you have to decide
A way to be ascent, flat or descent.
Scola,
You have to make sure things are not so much complicated
Although you should not prefer much short cut ways
Too easy things are costly.
Scola,
Life is a system comprising of different organs
Eat the fruit only when it is ripen
Never rely on one thing only
Since nothing works alone
Scola,
My niece
Be confident, worry not
Nothing will go wrong
You will never succeed
If you have never tried.

Mussa Shikome Poem
Fuga kuku mechagua, kuku wa yetu asili,
Mayai wajizolea, kula jenga wako mwili,
Kuku kwa yai tokea, nayo ndani yake mwili,
Mayai sije maliza, kaja kosa kuja taga.
Kaja kosa kuja taga, kisa hakuna uzao,
kwa mikogo kajikaga, kitafuna chote leo,
badae takuja bwaga, na sipate kimbilio.
Mayai sije maliza, kaja kosa kuja taga.
Sitake ionja sumu, kwa maziwa siyonayo,
Hospitali kugumu, takosekana tibayo,
Kodoa nalo jukumu, uone yarefushwayo,
Mayai sije maliza, kaja kosa kuja taga.
Kisa moto kuwashia, sitoe yote makuti,
Kivuli kakupotea, na amani sije keti,
Usambe sikukwambia, sing’amue tofauti,
Mayai sije maliza, kaja kosa kuja taga.
Liuza maziwa pupa, leo ndama twatabika,
Tabika kitoka kapa, maziwa yanamashaka,
mashaka kwa zao pupa, livyojalia Rabuka
Mayai sije maliza, kaja kosa kuja taga.
Wanotumia wa moza, vya kwao sijevimwaga,
Nia mifugo ongeza, mayai tele kitaga,
Ya ndani mekueleza, mfanowe nawe iga,
Mayai sije maliza, kaja kosa kuja taga.
