NATIONAL ANTHEM
Oh God of all creation Ee Mungu nguvu yetu
Bless this our land and nation Ilete baraka kwetu
Justice be our shield and defender Haki iwe ngao na mlinzi
May we dwell in unity Natukae na undugu
Peace and liberty Amani na uhuru
Plenty be found within our borders. Raha tupate na ustawi.
Let one and all arise Amkeni ndugu zetu
With hearts both strong and true Tufanye zote bidii
Service be our earnest endeavour Nasi tujitoe kwa nguvu
And our homeland of Kenya Nchi yetu ya Kenya
Heritage of splendour Tunayoipenda
Firm may we stand to defend. Tuwe tayari kuilinda.
Let all with one accord Natujenge taifa letu
In common bond united Ee, ndio wajibu wetu
Build this our nation together Kenya istahili heshima
And the glory of Kenya Tuungane mikono
The fruit of our labor Pamoja kazini
Fill every heart with thanksgiving. Kila siku tuwe na shukrani.
EAC ANTHEM
Ee Mungu twaomba ulinde
Jumuiya Afrika Mashariki
Tuwezeshe kuishi kwa amani
Tutimize na malengo yetu.
Chorus
Jumuiya Yetu sote tuilinde
Tuwajibike tuimarike
Umoja wetu ni nguzo yetu
Idumu Jumuiya yetu.
Uzalendo pia mshikamano
Viwe msingi wa Umoja wetu
Natulinde Uhuru na Amani
Mila zetu na desturi zetu.
Viwandani na hata mashambani
Tufanye kazi sote kwa makini
Tujitoe kwa hali na mali
Tuijenge Jumuiya bora.
