English translation / Tafsiri ya Kiingereza / Traduzione inglese...
Malaika, nakupenda malaika,
malaika, nakupenda Malaika.
Nami nifanyeje, kijana mwenzio,
nashindwa na mali sina, we,
ningekuoa Malaika,
nashindwa na mali sina, we,
ningekuoa Malaika.

Pesa zasumbua roho yangu,
pesa zasumbua roho yangu.
Nami nifanyeje, kijana mwenzio,
nashindwa na mali sina, we,
ningekuoa Malaika,
nashindwa na mali sina, we,
ningekuoa Malaika

Kidege, hukuwaza kidege,
Kidege, hukuwaza kidege,
Nami nifanyeje, kijana mwenzio,
nashindwa na mali sina, we,
ningekuoa Kidege,[1]
nashindwa na mali sina, we,
ningekuoa Kidege
ANGEL

Angel, I love you Angel.
Angel, I love you Angel.
and I, what should I do, your young friend.
I am defeated by the bride price that I don't have,
I would marry you Angel.
I am defeated by the bride price that I don't have,
I would marry you Angel.

Little bird, I think of you little bird.
Little bird, I think of you little bird.
and I, what should I do, your young friend.
I am defeated by the bride price that I don't have,
I would marry you Angel.
I am defeated by the bride price that I don't have,
I would marry you Angel.

The money (which I do not have) depresses my soul,
The money (which I do not have) depresses my soul.
and I, what should I do, your young friend.
I am defeated by the bride price that I don't have,
I would marry you Angel.
I am defeated by the bride price that I don't have,
I would marry you Angel.
