Je was op zoek naar: mishumaa (Swahili - Engels)

waandamanaji waliweka mishumaa mitaani na kuimba kwa sauti ya juu sana nyimbo mbalimbali za kulaani vitendo hivyo.
protestors placed candles in the street and sang their condemnation in unison, at the top of their lungs.

sababu ilikuwa kwamba dhamiri yake ilimshtaki baada ya kuwa amewanyanyasa raia walioshiriki katika mkesha wa tukio la kuwasha mishumaa.
the reason was that he felt guilty after suppressing civilians who attended candlelight vigils.

kuna mchezo wenyewe, lakini kuna nyimbo, mishumaa ya kirumi, mabomu ya moshi, ngoma, honi.
there is the game itself, but there are songs, roman candles, smoke bombs, drums, horns.

aliniambia kuwa mwanawe amewasha mishumaa miwili na amesambaza wanasesere wake anajaribu kucheza, pamoja na baridi na hofu na makombora na vifo na athari.
she told me he had lit two candles and laid out his toys and was trying, despite the cold and fear and shelling and death and trauma, to play.

katika hatua hii ya ibada, afisa mmoja wa usalama pale bustanini alifika na kutangaza kwamba mishumaa yote izimwe na watu wote watawanyike kuondoka kwenye sehemu hiyo.
at this point of the vigil, a security officer for the park came to announce that all candles should be blown out and that the people should vacate the corner of the park.

karibu watu 70, ikiwa ni pamoja na wanafunzi kutoka afrika na china, walikaa kwenye kona ya mbali ya viwanja hivyo mbele ya picha maalum ya maombolezo wakiwa na mishumaa yao.
nearly 70 people, including students from africa and china, sat in a remote corner of the park in front of a make-shift altar with candles.

tukio hilo lilihusisha kusomwa kwa mashairi yaliyotungwa na washiriki wenyewe, kuwasha mishumaa ya maombolezo inayoambatana na dakika moja ya kukaa kimya na pia kutengeneza kadi za pole zilizoandikwa kwa anuani za familia za wahanga 147 ambazo zingetumwa nchini kenya baadae.
the event included a reading of original poetry, a candlelight mini-memorial with a minute of silence and also the creation of cards addressed to the families of the 147 victims to be mailed to kenya later.

mwanablogu mrwanda, negrita's chronicles, alitoa mwito kwa wasomaji wake kushiriki katika mkesha wa kitaifa wa kuwasha mishumaa ili kuwakumbuka wahanga wa mauaji. alifanya hivyo kupitia blogu yake:
rwandan blogger negrita's chronicles asked her readers to join the nation-wide candlelight vigil for the victims through her blog:

jioni inapofika, kauli mbiu zinazidi kuongezeka, kadri giza linapozidi kuingia, mienge inatoa harufu mbaya kana kwamba ni adhabu, ninakusanya mienge yote iliyokwisha tumika, na kuweka makaratasi kwenye mafuta ya taa yaliyomwagika chini, ninapokuwa nimechoka zaidi, ninakula korosho na kuchoma maganda ya karanga kwa kutumia mishumaa inayowaka.
the evening rolls in, the slogans get intense, as it becomes dark the burning torches smells like retribution, i collect all the used torches, put paper on the spilled kerosene, become more tired, eat peanuts and burn the peanut shells with burning candles.
