Lyrics:
Baba yetu, yetu uliye (Our, our Father who are)
Mbinguni yetu, yetu, amina (In heaven, our, our, amen)
Baba yetu, yetu, uliye (Our, our Father, who are)
Jina lako litukuzwe (Let's glorify your name)
Baba yetu, yetu uliye (Our, our Father who are)
Mbinguni yetu, yetu, amina (In heaven, our, our, amen)
Baba yetu, yetu, uliye (Our, our Father, who are)
Jina lako litukuzwe (Let's glorify your name)
Utupe leo chakula chetu (Give us today our food)
Tunachohitaji utusamehe (We need you to forgive us)
Makosa yetu, hey (Our errors, hey)
Kama nasi tunavyowasamehe (As we do forgive those)
Waliotukosea, usitutie (Who did us wrong, don't put us)
Katika majaribu, lakini (Into trials, but)
Utuokoe, na yule, milele na milele (Save us, with him, for ever and ever)
Baba yetu, yetu uliye (Our, our Father who are)
Mbinguni yetu, yetu, amina (In heaven, our, our, amen)
Baba yetu, yetu, uliye (Our, our Father, who are)
Jina lako litukuzwe (Let's glorify your name)
Baba yetu, yetu uliye (Our, our Father who are)
Mbinguni yetu, yetu, amina (In heaven, our, our, amen)
Baba yetu, yetu, uliye (Our, our Father, who are)
Jina lako litukuzwe (Let's glorify your name)
Ufalme wako ufike utakalo (Your kingdom come that it be)
Lifanyike duniani kama mbinguni, amina (done on earth as in heaven, amen)
Baba yetu, yetu uliye (Our, our Father who are)
Mbinguni yetu, yetu, amina (In heaven, our, our, amen)
Baba yetu, yetu, uliye (Our, our Father, who are)
Jina lako litukuzwe (Let's glorify your name)
Baba yetu, yetu uliye (Our, our Father who are)
Mbinguni yetu, yetu, amina (In heaven, our, our, amen)
Baba yetu, yetu, uliye (Our, our Father, who are)
Jina lako litukuzwe (Let's glorify your name)
Utupe leo chakula chetu (Give us today our food)
Tunachohitaji utusamehe (We need you to forgive us)
Makosa yetu, hey (Our errors, hey)
Kama nasi tunavyowasamehe (As we do forgive those)
Waliotukosea, usitutie (Who did us wrong, don't put us)
Katika majaribu, lakini (Into trials, but)
Utuokoe na yule msiba milele (Save us from this distress for ever)
Baba yetu, yetu, uliye (Our, our Father, who are)
Jina lako litukuzwe (Let's glorify your name)
Baba yetu, yetu, uliye (Our, our Father, who are)
Jina lako litukuzwe (Let's glorify your name)

What is the solo singer's lyrics at 1:41 in the video? They don't seem to be in the lyrics from the choral music.

[@kimmillard9445]

Ufalme wako ufike utakalo (Your kingdom come that it be) Lifanyike duniani kama mbinguni, amina (done on earth as in heaven, amen) The soloist is doing an ad lib on the text while the chorus does a straightforward rendering. It's my favorite part of this video. This piece just seems to work better for me with all male voices than mixed chorus. The deeper male voices gives it a warmer richer sound that is missing on the mixed-voice versions.

@@ajokpatricia8021 , I'm not exactly sure why Christopher Tin chose this text for Civilizations IV which is a video game. The original video with mixed choir is very secular, strictly a tribute to man's achievements. Wouldn't be the first time a talented non-believing composer chose a sacred text which God then appropriated for His greater purposes.

So it is a good translation? I have heard that some of the songs in other languages that you sing in choirs don't actually make sense in the other language.

[@MIKEGODSQUAD]

Rebecca O'Sullivan I was going to say the same thing I was just about to start typing. Makes you wonder if what your listening to is good or not.

[@edwardbarnett7723]

@@MIKEGODSQUAD The main reason why they don't make sense when plainly translated is that the meaning behind the phrase or sentence isn't translated with the wording, I've been learning for 3 years now and just reading or hearing my partner say the phrases does not make sense until she translates the meaning behind it. Swahili also borrows some words from the Arabic language also, that mean different things to their literal translation.

Point correction please, " baba" means !" father " ,the song is about a prayer of " our father who is at heaven......"

Just found this. God bless you for showing these children & even older villagers that they are important. Life would be so boring if we were all the same...embrace our differences...& accept the ways we are so similar!

Mr Atheist, repent before it's too late because you didn't create yourself. Just because you don't believe in God doesn't mean He is not there. Spiritual life is very real.

They released a video with Christopher Tin talking about the creation of the Civ VI theme. The song is called "Sogno di Volare", Italian for "The Dream of Flight". So look forward to it continuing the lineage of Baba Yetu!
