lyrics

English:

Dear brothers,
Listen to me
I’ll tell you about
Where I was born
I was born
In Kisa Town
In our county
Called Kakamega
In Tiriki,
Maragoli
And Bunyore
Are our homes
Samia
And Marama
And Dowango
Are our homes
There in Butsotso,
And Idakho
Right by Kisa
All of these are our homes
Johnny Mwale,
And [Reuben] Shimbiro
And [Joseph] Abasi
They’re all our people

---

Swahili:

Wandugu wapenzi,
sikilize,
nimweleze,
kwetu nilizaliwa
Nilizaliwa,
mji wa Kisa,
counti yetu
ni Kakamega
Kule Tiriki,
Maragoli,
na Bunyore
zote ni nchi zetu
Kule Samia,
na Marama
na Dowango
zote ni nchi zetu
Kule Butsotso,
na Idakho
mpaka Kisa
zote ni nchi zetu
Johnny Mwale,
and [Reuben] Shimbiro
and [Joseph] Abasi
They’re all our people
