Lyrics
(Verse 1)
In the heart of Africa, where the sun is high,
Lies Uganda, oh Uganda, beneath the endless sky,
Pearl of Africa, land of beauty and grace,
Tropical rhythms, seasons' gentle embrace.
(Chorus)
Uganda, oh Uganda, land of joy and pride,
Where the mountains touch the heavens, rivers wind so wide,
From Rwenzori’s snowy peaks to Victoria’s shore,
In the heart of Africa, beauty we adore.
(Verse 2)
Two seasons bless this land, a dance of sun and rain,
Life springs anew with each, a melody's refrain,
Kibale's forest whispers, chimpanzees call,
Queen Elizabeth’s savannah, where the wild enthralls.
(Chorus)
Uganda, oh Uganda, land of joy and pride,
Where the mountains touch the heavens, rivers wind so wide,
From Rwenzori’s snowy peaks to Victoria’s shore,
In the heart of Africa, beauty we adore.
(Bridge)
Chimpanzees in Budongo, singing wild and free,
Bwindi’s impenetrable, a lush, green canopy,
Lake Victoria’s waters, Nile's eternal source,
Flowing through the ages, on its sacred course.
(Verse 3)
The Nile, the longest river, whispers ancient tales,
From Victoria’s cradle, through valleys and dales,
Murchison Falls thunders, birds in Mabamba Bay,
Kasyoha-Kitomi's echoes, where nature holds sway.
(Chorus)
Uganda, oh Uganda, land of joy and pride,
Where the mountains touch the heavens, rivers wind so wide,
From Rwenzori’s snowy peaks to Victoria’s shore,
In the heart of Africa, beauty we adore.
(Outro)
In the pearl of Africa, where nature’s gifts abound,
Every corner holds a story, every sight, a sound,
Uganda, oh Uganda, your beauty shines so bright,
In the heart of Africa, you are our guiding light.
