Lyrics

Riding on the train to Kibera today
Oh, I promised myself that never again will I hurt you
Nairobi I love you
All over the city from place to place
I reach out with joy to the people I meet
Cause I love you, Nairobi I love you
I, I love you, Nairobi Nakupenda
I love you so
I, I love you Nairobi Nakupenda
I love you so
Standing in the rain on Kimathi Street
I heard a preacher man pray for a reign of peace
And I said "true Nairobi I love you"
Young and old from every creed
Everybody must join in unity
I say so, Nairobi I love you
I, I love you, Nairobi Nakupenda
I love you so
I, I love you Nairobi Nakupenda
I love you so
Now twenty four seven everyday of the week
I commit to seek and keep the faith
'Cause I love you Nairobi, Nairobi I love you
All over the from street to street I'll lift up with hope
Cause I love you, Nairobi I love you
I, I love you, Nairobi Nakupenda
I love you so
I, I love you Nairobi Nakupenda
I love you so
Beautiful city in the sun
You are the one to whom I run
When I have the gift of song
Beautiful city in the sun
You are the one to whom I run
When I have the gift of song
Kenya arises! Kenya arises!
Kenya arises! Kenya arise!
