lyrics

English:

Ngala and Muliro sent a letter to Congo
Tshombe then replied that Lumumba is dead
Mr. Ngala also sent a letter to Mzee Kenyatta,
Mzee Kenyatta then cried eeeeh
When Mr. Tom Mboya heard the news,
He grabbed his heart and cried ho ho ho!
Ngala and Muliro sent a letter to Congo,
Tshombe then replied that Lumumba is dead

---

Swahili:

Ngala na Muliro walituma barua kwa Congo
Tshombe alijibu Lumumba amekufa
Bwana Ngala naye akatuma barua kwa Kenyatta
Kenyatta akalia machozi eeeeeeh
Bwana Tom Mboya alipopata habari
Alisikitika rohoni akalia ho ho ho!
Ngala na Muliro walituma barua kwa Congo
Tshombe alijibu Lumumba amekufa
