Ooh it's a beautiful day
What is your plan for the day?
Do you wanna sit and watch others
Making moves and working for themselves?
Do you wanna sit and criticize yeah?
When you're not doing anything
Rolling stones gather no moss, ey
Get to work and do something

Asubuhi imefika sasa amka
Ni wakati wa kwenda kazi wewe unalala
Maisha ni kutafuta sio kulalisha wewe
Unalalisha nini wakati bado wewe kijana
Changamka na maisha, piganisha maisha
Chenye unapanda leo ndicho utakachovuna

Carpe diem
Saissez le jour
Seize the day
Remember today is not a replay
So as they posit to completely convey
The s'posed way to seriously survey
Don't let them you betray
But create your own cryptic cabaret
And write a renowned play
As you climb up the clay
To cogitate away from the cliché
Kwa hivyo shika siku
Nikibonga bars zangu
Kutoka kyota cha kasuku
Anayefunga sote sanduku
Zinazojazwa na swala la sumu
Ili tuongeze nguvu ya sumaku
Inayovuta jamii juu
