Oh God of all creation. Blessed is our homeland. Justice be our shield and defender. Without peace, all of our voices are silenced. May we build our nation. Yes, in common bond united.

Ee Mungu nguvu yetu. Llete baraka kwetu. Haki iwe ngao na mlinzi. Without peace, all of our voices are silenced (No Kiswahili text in video). Natujenge taifa letu. Ee, ndio wajibu wetu. Kenya istahili heshima. Tuungane mikono, pamoja kazini. Kila siku tuwe na shukrani.
Let your voice be heard
