NATIONAL ANTHEM  (SWAHILI)

VERSE 1

Ee Mungu nguvu yetu
Ilete baraka kwetu
Haki iwe ngao na mlinzi
Natukae na undugu
Amani na uhuru
Raha tupate na ustawi.

VERSE 2

Amkeni ndugu zetu
Tufanye zote bidii
Nasi tujitoe kwa nguvu
Nchi yetu ya Kenya
Tunayoipenda
Tuwe tayari kuilinda.

VERSE 3

Natujenge taifa letu
Ee, ndio wajibu wetu
Kenya istahili heshima
Tuungane mikono
Pamoja kazini
Kila siku tuwe na shukrani.

O, God of all creation
Bless this our land and nation
Justice be our shield and defender
May we stay in unity

With hearts both strong and true

In common bond united
Build this our nation together
And the glory of Kenya
The fruits of our labor
Fill every heart with thanksgiving.
