In Gambia's lands, where rivers glide,
Life unfolds with gentle pride.
From Banjul's streets to mangrove's peace,
Gambia's charm will never cease.
Small in size, grand in heart,
Gambia is a work of art.
Along the banks of the great river,
Gambia's song makes hearts shiver.
From sunrise glow to sunset's gleam,
Gambia's dream is ever seen.
A haven where traditions blend,
And every path, a faithful friend.
