Lyrics

Chorus

Abo abambadde engoye enjeru bava wa?
Bava wa? Bava wa?
Beebo abayita mu kubonaabona okunene,
ne booza engoye zaabwe ne zaamuka mu musaayi gwa Kaliga.
Kye bava babeera mu maaso ga Namulondo
ne baweereza Ddunda mu kiggwa kye emisana n'ekiro.

1

Nnalaba ebbiina eritabalika,
nga bavudde mu nsi yonna ne mu mawanga
mu buli kika mu nnimi zonna tebabalika muwendo.
Nga bayimiridde mu maaso ga Nnamulondo mu maaso ga Kaliga.
Ho! bambadde ezinekaneka,
bambadde zitukula ezitemagana.
N'ensansa ez'obuwanguzi, n'ensansa ez'obuwanguzi
bazikutte mu ngalo;
ne balekaana n'eddoboozi eddene:
Katonda waffe awangamye ku Nnamulondo,
wamu n'Akaliga be bannanyini kulokola.

2

Bamalayika nabo ne bassa okwo;
beetoloodde Nnamulondo y'Omukama.
Abakadde n'ebiramu ebina ne bassa okwo,
ne beeyala okusinza Nnanyini ggulu nga bayimba nti:
(Amiina) Katonda abeere n'ettendo.
(Amiina) Katonda abeere n'amaanyi.
(Amiina) Katonda abe n'amagezi emirembe gyonna.
Yeebazibwe agulumizibwenga;
abeere n'amaanyi n'obuzira emirembe gyonna, emirembe gyonna.
Amiina, Amiina, Amiina.
