[jrkuyena]

This is amazing; I love this group. Really, music is an universal language since people all over the world can interpret songs in different languages. Let's go Selah! May God bless you, and keep up spreading the word of God through your songs! Jacques-René Kuyena

[yrnbaba]

i want to knw the meaning of the whole song coz i love it so so much. i knw how to sing it but not the meaning.

[J4JESUS1]

slowly slowly...we go till the end

[Pipercub1976]

Esengo, esengo, esengo meine (repeat 3x) Ezali na ba oyo ba ndimi Yesu (repeat) Mawa, mawa, mawa meine (repeat 3x) Ezali na ba oyo ba mboyi Yesu (repeat) Longwa, longwa, longwa Santana (repeat 3x) Na lingi ko salela Yo, Yesu Masistaia (repeat) Mbalembe, mbalembe, tu kweda na zulu(repeat 3x) Tu kwenda na Happiness, happiness, happiness for those who have accepted Jesus Sadness, sadness, sadness for those who have rejected Jesus Get away Satan I want to serve you Jesus, the Messiah

[wendwa]

Just to correct a few typos:

Esengo, esengo, esengo MINGI, mawa MINGI

... mingi = a lot

Yesu Masia (i.e. Messiah), not Masistaia

Longwa means defeated, not go away

Na lingi means I love to, not I want to.

Haven't really listened to the whole song though, this is the first time but you pretty much got the gist of it, Pipercub1976 - joy in Christ, sorrow in the devil, the devil is defeated. Blessings, all!

[PDWL123]

Anybody knows the translation 4 the words of this song?If anybody does could they plz post it to my channel?it would mean a lot 2 me.thx. God bless.

[macchinchouette]

i can tell u the beginning part of it but not the whole thing cuz i dont speak fluent lingala:

~esengo, esengo,esengo mingi esa li na ba oyo ba ndimi yesu- joy joy lots of joy are w/ those that follow Jesus.

~mawa mawa mawa mingi esa li na ba oyo ba boyi yesu- pity pity lots of pity are w/ those that refuse Jesus.

~longwa longwa longwa satana, na lingui co salela yo yesu masia- leave leave leave satan , i want to praise you lord Jesus...

thats all i have so far :)

[proudlola]

what does esengo means? what language is that?

[acwwjesusfreak]

It's in Congolese. =)

[macchinchouette]

Congolese is not the actual language, the language is lingala -the main language of Congo- and esengo means joy.

[acwwjesusfreak]

I was just saying what the CD insert said ;]
