[Intro]
Eri on the beat... Taga
[Verse 1]
Back in school's glow, chalk dust in the air
We walked the hallways slow, you were always there
Friendship turned to gentle flame we couldn't hide
Nakupenda, Renitah, you light up every night
Memories in the lockers, laughter in the sun
You shaded me from storms, girl, you’re the only one
[Pre-Chorus]
Nkwagala, najikuta mu nsi y’ensi
Ndakwagala, nakusaba nditambule nawe
Nimbeera w’abwongo, mu by’ennya ya moyo
(Eri) Nkwagala, woo, kisiima mu zizi
[Chorus]
Renitah, I’m gonna love you forever
Nakupenda, we’ll ride this together
Nakwagala, you’re my light in the weather
Baby, you’re my sunshine, now and forever
Yeah, nakupenda, yeah, nakupenda
[Verse 2]
Love grew like a summer rain on a quiet street
Your smile is a melody that moves my heartbeat
From friendship to the promises we keep side by side
With you, Renitah, I’m home, I’m alive
[Bridge]
Nkusaba n’akabi, mu mukwano gwange
Tamu nnyo, owuuna, nze ndi w’ezo
Ndowooza ku bintu byaffe, bwe byagenda
Nkwagala, wange, ssi mu kwagala kuwala
[Verse 3]
Every text, every glance, a spark in the night
Our future writes in stars, a dance of soft light
[Chorus]
Renitah, I’m gonna love you forever
Nakupenda, we’ll ride this together
Nakwagala, you’re my light in the weather
Baby, you’re my sunshine, now and forever
Yeah, nakupenda, yeah, nakupenda
[Outro]
ERIASI, signing off with a kiss of the dawn
To Renitah, my heart’s anthem, drawn
From school days to forevermore, love is grown
