One of the resources available for Bread for the World Sunday is a version of The Lord's Prayer in Swahili and English (along with phoenitic pronunciations).
The Swahili version has been put into song. Below is a beautiful a capella performance by Talisman, a wonderful choir based at Stanford University.
The Soweto Gospel Choir sings a different version of the song composed and arranged by Christopher Tin for the computer game Civilization V. You might recognize still another version of Tin's composition and arrangement in the Disney movie The Lion King II.
BABA YETU ULIYE MBINGUNI
JINA LAKO LITU KUZWE
UFALME WAKO UJE
MAPENZI YAKO YATIMIZWE
HAPA DUNIANI KAMAHUKO MBINIGUNI
UTUPE LEO RIZIKI YETU
UTUSAMEHE DENI ZETU
KAMA SISI NASI TUWASAMEHEVYO WADENI YETU
NA USITUTIE MAJARABUNI
LAKINI UTUOKOE NA YULE MWOVU
KWA KUWA UFALME NI WAKO
NA NGUVU
NA UTUKUFU
HATA MILELE
AMINA
