I Won't Compromise N'shishiyelo ni Lilo
Go and Console Him Kamliwaze
Worry Not Tuza Moyo
The Boil Jipu
I'll Never Let Go Siwati
Crocodile Mamba
I Remember You Nakukumbuka
Human Perfection Ukamilifu wa Mja
What Has Offended You? Lilokuudhi ni Lipi?
Coconut Palm: A Tug-of-War Mnazi: Vuta N'kuvute
This Speaking Out Kuno Kunena
Slipperiness Telezi
Speak Out, You Who Dare Semani Wenye Kusema
Even a Clever Guy Can't Shave His Own Head Muwerevu Hajinyowi
It Will End Yatakoma
Alas, My Friend! Ah! Mwenzangu
Be Gone, Anxiety Wasiwasi Enda Zako
What a Bad Fellow! Mja Si Mwema
What Will Happen? Lipi Litakalokuwa?
Our Mother Africa Mamaetu Afrika
Yesterday and Today and Tomorrow Jana na Leo na Kesho
A Precious Thing Can't Last Chema Hakudumu
Be Patient, My Heart Moyo Iwa Na Subira
Don't Kill Me! Usiniuwe!
Things Have Their Own Ways Mambo Yana Mambo Yake
Don't Listen to Them Watiliye Pamba
Pampering Tendekezo
I Wouldn't Be Here Today Leo N'singekuwako
Cockadoodle-do! Kokoiko!
Don't Cling to Silence 'Sikakawane na Kimya
Travelers, Let's Wake Up Wasafiri Tuamkeni
Come to Your Senses Zindukani
Goodbye Kwa Heri
The Town Cockerel and the Country One La Mjini na La Shamba
Wash Him Muosheni
I'm Coming Naja
Crossroads Ndiya Panda
A Thing Can't Be Human Kichu Hakiwi Ni Uchu
Tit for Tat Kutendana
I'm Back N'sharudi
