Lyrics

Umoja ni fahari yetu
Undugu ndio nguvu
Chuki na ukabila
Hatutaki hata kamwe
Lazima tuungane, tuijenge nchi yetu
Pasiwe hata mmoja
Anaetenganisha
Naishi, Natumaini
Najitolea daima Kenya
Hakika ya bendera
Ni uthabiti wangu
Nyeusi ya wananchi na nyekundu ni ya damu
Kijani ni ya ardhi, nyeupe ya amani
Daima mimi mkenya
Mwananchi mzalendo
Kwa uchungu na mateso
Kwa vilio na uzuni
Tulinyakuliwa Uhuru
Na mashujaa wa zamani
Hawakushtushwa na risasi
Au kufungwa gerezani
Nia yao ukombozi kuvunja pingu za ukoloni
Naishi, Natumaini
Najitolea daima Kenya
Hakika ya bendera
Ni uthabiti wangu
Nyeusi ya wananchi na nyekundu ni ya damu
Kijani ni ya ardhi, nyeupe ya amani
Daima mimi mkenya
Mwananchi mzalendo
Wajibu wetu
Ni Kuishi kwa upendo
Kutoka ziwa Mpaka pwani
Kaskazini na kusini
Naishi, Natumaini
Najitolea daima Kenya
Hakika ya bendera
Ni uthabiti wangu
Nyeusi ya wananchi na nyekundu ni ya damu
Kijani ni ya ardhi, nyeupe ya amani
Daima mimi mkenya
Mwananchi mzalendo
Kijani ni ya ardhi, nyeupe ya amani
Daima mimi mkenya
Mwananchi mzalendo

Lyrics translation

Unity is our pride
Brotherhood is the power
Hatred and ethnicity
We do not even want to
We must unite, build our country
Not one
He separates it
I Live, I Hope
I always volunteer in Kenya
Lo of the flag
It's my steadfastness
Black locals and red are bleeding
Green is the ground, white of peace
Always me Kenyan
Nationalist nationalist
Bitterness and suffering
By stagnation and sorrow
We Were Caught Free
And the heroes of old
They were not shocked by bullets
Or imprisonment
Their intention liberation to break the shackles of colonialism
I Live, I Hope
I always volunteer in Kenya
Lo of the flag
It's my steadfastness
Black locals and red are bleeding
Green is the ground, white of peace
Always me Kenyan
Nationalist nationalist
Our responsibility
It's living with love
From the lake to the beach
North and south
I Live, I Hope
I always volunteer in Kenya
Lo of the flag
It's my steadfastness
Black locals and red are bleeding
Green is the ground, white of peace
Always me Kenyan
Nationalist nationalist
Green is the ground, white of peace
Always me Kenyan
Nationalist nationalist
