The National Anthem

1

Ee Mungu nguvu yetu
Ilete baraka kwetu.

Haki iwe ngao na mlinzi
Natukae na udugu

Amani na uhuru
Raha tupate na ustawi.

2

Amkeni ndugu zetu
Tufanye sote bidii

Nasi tujitoe kwa nguvu
Nehi yetu ya Kenya,

Tunayoipenda
Tuwe tayari kuilinda.

3

Natujenge taifa letu
Ee, ndio wajibu wetu

Kenya istahili heshima
Tuungane mikono

Pamoja kazini
Kila siku tuwe na shukrani.

1

O God of all creation
Bless this our land and nation.

Justice be our shield and defender
May we dwell in unity

Peace and liberty
Plenty be found within our borders.

2

Let one and all arise
With hearts both strong and true.

Service be our earnest endeavour,
And our Homeland of Kenya,

Heritage of splendour
Firm ma we stand to defend.

3

Let all with one accord
In common bond united.

Build this our nation together
And the glory of Kenya

The fruit of our labour
Fill every heart with thanksgiving.
