[Intro]
Uuuuuuuhhhh eeeeeeeeh, Uganda on my mind
City lights fade, and roots sing loud
[Verse 1]
No one can be me, no one can be you
Under the sun of Uganda, I’m staying true
My mother guides me, in the dawn’s first light
It’s me and my homeland, soaring through the night
[Chorus]
My Uganda, my voice, my shining fate
From west to east, I rise, I won't hesitate
You are the mirror where I find my truth
My mother, my sun, the strength of my youth
[Verse 2]
Onyumo... okulabako, I hear the heartbeat call
256 dreams in my pocket, standing tall
No more masks, no more fear to share
I step into the sunlight, love everywhere
[Chorus]
My Uganda, my voice, my shining fate
From west to east, I rise, I won't hesitate
You are the mirror where I find my truth
My mother, my sun, the strength of my youth
[Bridge]
Every street a memory, every smile a sign
Carved in the soil of this motherland of mine
[Chorus]
My Uganda, my voice, my shining fate
From west to east, I rise, I won't hesitate
You are the mirror where I find my truth
My mother, my sun, the strength of my youth
[Outro]
Oh Uganda, oh my sun, carry me through
Zero west, 256—forever true
