Naamini ulizaliwa ili uwe na mimi Naima Naima
Naamini nilizaliwa ili niwe na wewe Naima Naima wa roho
Wakati mwingine nakuchukia sana sana Naima

The song Naima by Fresh Jumbe is a love song that expresses the deep affection and devotion the singer has for his significant other, Naima. The first verse of the song states that Naima is the choice of his heart and he believes that they were both born to be together. The next verse reveals that sometimes he gets upset with her, but it is because he loves her so much. He acknowledges that when she upsets him, he sees it as a stroke of bad luck, but if he upsets her, he must confess and accept punishment. The chorus repeats the name Naima several times while expressing the singer’s happiness and contentedness when he is with her. He believes that everything he has, including his body, soul, and life is in her hands, and he has given her all of himself.
The closing part of the song lists several people who may have contributed to the creation of the song or helped in some way. The final line of the song speaks to how Naima’s beauty and figure make him ache, but it is a sweet pain that he is willing to endure because he loves her so much.
