lyrics
[Intro]
(Bright, triumphant Amapiano chords over a steady, energetic beat. Saxophone solo blends with the sound of wildlife and festive cheers.)
Oh yeah, welcome to Kenya!
The land of champions and endless beauty.
Karibu Kenya, hakuna matata!
(Bass drop with ululations and crowd chants: “Kenya! Kenya! Kenya!”)
[Verse 1]
We are the champions, the best in the game,
Eliud Kipchoge, the world knows his name.
Faith Kipyegon, running with grace,
Chebet’s stride sets the winning pace.
In Nairobi, the city where lions roam,
A national park right by your home.
Mountains, rivers, forests, and snow,
Kenya’s wonders everywhere you go.
[Pre-Chorus]
Raise your hands, feel the magic in the air,
From the Mara to the coast, beauty everywhere.
Smile with the people, the vibe is strong,
Karibu Kenya, where you belong!
[Chorus]
Hakuna matata, hakuna matata,
This is Kenya, hakuna matata!
Feel the rhythm, feel the pride,
Karibu Kenya, let’s take you for a ride!
Hakuna matata, hakuna matata,
This is Kenya, hakuna matata!
Feel the love, feel the groove,
Karibu Kenya, come and move!
(Saxophone riff over a punchy bassline, with sounds of wildlife and ocean waves.)
[Verse 2]
Visit the Mara, see the wildebeest run,
Under the African sky, golden with the sun.
Beautiful beaches, white sands so pure,
Turquoise waters, a dream to endure.
From deserts to forests, we’ve got it all,
Snow-capped mountains standing tall.
We live with lions, leopards, and more,
Harmony’s the key, nature we adore.
[Bridge]
(The beat slows, soft piano and soulful sax melody take over.)
The smiles are bright, the hearts are kind,
Kenya’s beauty, one of a kind.
Different cultures, united as one,
Under the Kenyan flag, we stand strong.
Expats come and fall in love,
With the people, the land, the skies above.
This is Kenya, where dreams come true,
Hakuna matata, we’re calling you!
And when you come, you never wanna go back,
Shout out to Troy White and Austin Holleman for loving and promoting Kenya to the world,
The land of champions, where hearts are bold.
(Beat picks up again, with crowd chants: “Karibu Kenya!”)
[Chorus]
Hakuna matata, hakuna matata,
This is Kenya, hakuna matata!
Feel the rhythm, feel the pride,
Karibu Kenya, let’s take you for a ride!
Hakuna matata, hakuna matata,
This is Kenya, hakuna matata!
Feel the love, feel the groove,
Karibu Kenya, come and move!
(Bassline drop with ululations, claps, and cheers.)
[Outro]
(Festive saxophone solo plays over fading beats and wildlife sounds.)
From the Mara to the beaches, the forests to the snow,
Karibu Kenya, wherever you go.
The land of champions, where smiles never fade,
Kenya, hakuna matata, come and celebrate!
(Final bass drop with crowd chants: “Kenya! Kenya! Kenya!”)
