Celebrated Tanzanian singer Ali Kiba has released a new song that appears to be dedicated to his estranged Kenyan wife, Amina Khalef.
In the song dubbed ‘Mshumaa’, the bongo flavor star begs Ms. Amina to come back in his life as he misses her.
“Nakumiss…Tena! Tutonana, Hata Mungu akipanga leo nikufe kesho, tutaonana tena,” Ali Kiba sings.
(I miss you…if God plans I die tomorrow, we will meet again.)
“Labda nikukumbushe, Nilipokuvisha pete, Ulisema machache, Hauniachi mpaka nife. Uwepo wako ndio ulikua wangu uzima.”
(Let me remind you, when I put a ring on you, you said you’ll never leave me until I die. Your presence was my being.)
In September, the award-winning singer confirmed that they were having issues in their marriage and had sent Amina back to her parents’ home in Mombasa.
“Honestly, in the recent past, we had disagreed but my mother solved it. She told us that marriage life needs patience and has a lot of challenges, and the devil doesn’t like people in the union,” he said.
He added, “It is true that my wife and I have issues, which is normal to any couple. I returned her to her parent’s home myself. I wanted her to also go back to work, I then traveled to Europe.”
Kiba, 31, and Amina, 24, tied the knot in April 2018 in two lavish wedding ceremonies held in Mombasa and Dar es Salaam. Mombasa Governor Ali Hassan Joho was among the guests in the event.
The couple welcomed their first-born child -a boy – in February this year.
This song seems…
This song seems contempletion of suicide (if she doesn’t go back to him).
“I took her back to her…
“I took her back to her parents…” wow,did he marry achild? No wonder they are having problems,hardly after one year in marriage.
I dont know these two people,but from what Iam reading here, I gather that they do not have much in common to sustain their marriage(reminds me of Mike tyson and his first wife-Robin Givens)This is just too early to start having problems… Being “acelebrity”,musician,and some semblance of wealth,and hardly at home can strain any marriage.Especially one that is in its infancy state.
Relationships, wah!
Relationships, wah!
This is too dismal
This is too dismal
It’s all about life, not…
It’s all about life, not that she is a child or anything like that even after 20 yrs of marriage it still happens. So plse go n take her back . N for Mrs plse take it easy because if u delete him someone is there to download him.
@Maxiley, I also took issue…
@Maxiley, I also took issue with that statement. “I took her back to her mother”. Gosh..like damaged goods or something you have bought and realise it needed to be rectified and took it back as still under warranty! They don’t belong together. That mindset speaks volumes! How insulting. Ujinga hauna dawa.
Amina., songs don’t mean…
Amina., songs don’t mean anything. Happiness is key. If you were not happy please don’t go back. Stay in Kenya and you will handsome well educated men like me who can make you happy. Aki kiba and others from TZ as you have seen have baby mamas kila mahali and they are being divorced left and right for a reasons we all know..
Mi napenda huo wimbo sana…
