Title: Ojwang – The Sun Will Rise Again
[Soft Saxophone Intro with mellow piano chords and gentle guitar picking]
Spoken Intro (Soloist – heavy and emotional)
They tried to silence you, Ojwang…
But the blood of the righteous speaks louder than words.
From the valleys to the hills,
Your name echoes with power.
This is for you, and all who dared to dream of a better Kenya.
Verse 1 (Soloist – slow, soulful)
We saw the fire in your eyes,
Hope in your heart, even when it hurt.
You stood up when many sat down,
You walked when others feared the road.
They said be quiet, but you spoke.
They tried to break us, but we rise.
[Saxophone Interlude – soft, crying melody over piano and subtle strings]
Chorus (Choir – emotional harmony)
The sun will rise again,
Even through the tears and pain.
Ojwang, your name remains,
Written in the hearts of the brave.
No, they can’t bury our dreams,
Because truth will never die.
And when dawn comes,
We’ll still be singing—freedom, oh freedom.
Verse 2 (Soloist – falsetto, full of ache)
Through injustice, through the storm,
We hold on to what is right.
Gen Zs cried for justice,
And the world heard the sound.
But the price we paid was deep,
Now we carry the flame.
[Saxophone Interlude – echoing the sorrow and strength of the people]
Bridge (Spoken – Soloist, reflective and intense)
Ojwang... your name joins a line of heroes.Tom Mboya, Robert Ouko, Bishop Muge,Pio Gama Pinto, Argwings Kodhek...Many, many nameless, and the Gen Ys we lost in the protests.If River Yala and the many forests could speak…But God saw it all.And Judgment Day will come.All voices silenced, but never erased.This land is soaked in sacrifice.
And just like Martin Luther King said:
“I may not get there with you, but I want you to know tonight,
that we, as a people, will get to the Promised Land.”
Ojwang… you may not be there when we reach the mountaintop.
But your son will. Oh, he will.
And when the sun rises again—
It will rise on your memory.
[Saxophone Solo – bold and beautiful, with choir hums and mellow bassline]
Final Chorus (Choir + Soloist ad-libs)
The sun will rise again,
Through every trial, through every name.
Ojwang, your light remains,
Guiding us to hope again.
Oh Kenya, stand and sing,
We are one, and love will win.
When morning breaks,
We will still believe—freedom, oh freedom.
