Kenya my Mamaland
You are as big headed
As you are beautiful
I love your audacious colors
but your boldness
in the face of grey times
is the greatest reason
for my insane admiration of you.
Stay safe for me
And for you
For us your children
I am obliged to pray for you
But now I pray even more
Coz I don't like the air around you
It smells weird
But let it smell all it can
Just stay peaceful Mamaland
Stay stubborn, don't bend your head
Stand tall, tilt your chin up
Because you are unbowed
They have tried to break you
But you remain unyielding
You shall overcome
Your children are irrepressible
We have been resilient
When they hit you we hurt
But the pain of their blows
Will not show on our faces forever
But our love for you is eternal
Tomorrow we rise fervent
To protect and love you
Like the lions on your emblem
You forever shield us your children
That's my prayer for you
Today, now and forever
Kenya my beloved Mamaland
