NATIONAL ANTHEMS OF KENYA: EE MUNGU NGUVU YETU | O GOD OF ALL CREATION

"Ee Mungu Nguvu Yetu" (English: O God of all Creation, O God, our strength) is the national anthem of Kenya. 

"Ee Mungu Nguvu Yetu" lyrics were originally written in Kiswahili, the national language of Kenya. Unlike some other countries' national anthems which were written or composed by foreigners, the Kenyan national anthem was prepared by local people. The commission included five members and was headed by the Kenya Music Adviser. It was based on a traditional tune sung by Pokomo mothers to their children. 

It is notable for being one of the first national anthems to be specifically commissioned as such. It was written by the Kenyan Anthem Commission in 1963 to serve as the state anthem after independence from the United Kingdom. It was expected that the lyrics would express the deepest convictions and the highest aspirations of the people as a whole.

LYRICS OF NATIONAL ANTHEMS OF KENYA:

Ee Mungu nguvu yetu
O God of all creation

Ilete baraka kwetu
Bless this our land and nation

Haki iwe ngao na mlinzi
Justice be our shield and defender

Natukae na undugu
May we dwell in unity

Amani na uhuru
Peace and liberty

Raha tupate na ustawi.
Plenty be found within our borders.

*

Amkeni ndugu zetu
Let one and all arise

Tufanye sote bidii
With hearts both strong and true

Nasi tujitoe kwa nguvu
Service be our earnest endeavour

Nchi yetu ya Kenya
And our homeland of Kenya

Tunayoipenda
Heritage and splendour

Tuwe tayari kuilinda
Firm may we stand to defend.

*

Natujenge taifa letu
Let all with one accord

Ee, ndio wajibu wetu
In common bond united

Kenya istahili heshima
Build this our nation together

Tuungane mikono
And the glory of Kenya

Pamoja kazini
The fruit of our labour

Kila siku tuwe na shukrani
Fill every heart with thanksgiving
