Haki most benga hits among the Kyuks are just comedy ama kuachana. Some lines in popular mugithi hits: Kibiriti ni kiu, mundia tawa uinke-Take the matchbox, light the lantern and go!  Ni wega ii. thii na wega Njeri-Bye Njeri, so long Waigua niuguthii nii ndikunyitite- Go if you want to.I wont restrain you. Ona akorwo nitwatiganire twana tuu ni thakame yakwa- We've parted but allow me to have access to the kids. Umuthi ndoiga reke tumanwo! Akorwo wi witu reke tumanwo. Kiria uraheaga nyendagiria. Kumenana gwitu gutingituma iguru na thi cinyitane .-Let's part even if we are related let's part. Feel free to sell to me the things you were giving me. Our enmity will not bring the sky down. Ii mwendwa Wangui-ii, ika wega ucoke kwanyu. Nigetha mwendwa, nyambe ndikirie marakara- Go back to your parents Wangui. Give me time to cool down... Loise Gathoni, na ndueterere nyumukane ngutigire arume.-Gathoni, you cheat on me when I'm still alive! Others end up being funny instead of romantic: Ngeragia gwiciria nikii itangikuhe, hihi noanga mai ma mwana- I can give you everything, except a child's mavi(stool). Wandathaya mukurukuthu! Ndugatume ndeke!-Don't make me laugh while you caress my spine! Guys from other parts of Kenya, do you experience this? Maybe my 'hunting' skills have been affected by these songs!

Twaririre ngima, tukinywa ucuru, Na ngikira kaseti tuigwi muthiiki Nguhiuka kwi mami ngimwira mami ndukanjite tene tondu ndina mugeni, Nguma na kwi mami ndiagukorire ngiuga gwetere hihi uthiite bata, ngiuma na boto rite ndugagikorwo niuguire kioro nanikiairimaNdagwethire thegi nginya kiriri ona thakirio nginya kiuu kia mburi Ndathandire rubu itekumenya andu a itura makiuma moi ni mokoraKa-riki wonire, ukirakara Ukiura utuku Who is the artist?The greatest act of bravery is chancing a fart while suffering from diarrhoea

'Gathoni' by kamaru almost made me change my name to gathoni... The spontaneous love story with great humour & pickup lines that are out of this world. & then KK by late queen Jane should be dedicated to a certain Wazuan who's gone MIA.

interpret for us!!!! When I have money, I get rid of it quickly, lest it find a way into my heart.

My all time favourite stanza........ Twakinya kuu gwa ikamba
Tugikora kamuthuri
Gakiuga nigekuga mbuui
Jenuru akiuga
karekwo kauge
kaugithanio na njirungi. IF YOU EXPECT ME TO POST ANYTHING POSITIVE ABOUT ASENO, YOU MAY AS WELL SIT ON A PIN

Who is the artist? this is one of my favourites ...ati he even went to see if the chic had fallen in the latrine Think Positive Test Negative

I dont know your second song but the first(muiritu wa kangemi) implies marital infidelity. OK a few have good lyrics like Njata yakwa by De Mathew.

Twaririre ngima, tukinywa ucuru,
Na ngikira kaseti tuigwi mugithi
Nguhiuka kwi mami
ngimwira mami ndukanjite tene tondu ndina karigo,
Nguma na kwi mami ndiagukorire ngiuga gwetere hihi uthiite bata, ngiuma na boto rite ndugagikorwo niutire kioro nanikiairima
Ndagwethire thegi nginya kiriri ona thakirio nginya kiuu kia mburi
Ndathandire rubu uuuuuuuuuu itekumenya andu a itura makiuma moi ni mokora
Ka-riki wonire, ukirakara
Ukiura utuku
ni muti wonire..ukimaka
ukiura utuku.
muti uyu mukuona
wahandirwo ni awa
iiiii muti, ugai muti.
