In your lands, spirit survives.

Uganda, with spirit pure,
In your essence, we endure.

Uganda's Essence:
Uganda, where the gorillas play,
And waters flow in grand array.
From Kampala's rhythm to Bwindi's grace,
Uganda holds a gentle pace.
In every forest, in every stream,
Uganda lives its vibrant dream.
The drumbeat's call in evening's glow,
Uganda's spirit, pure and slow.
The laughter of the children's song,
Uganda's heart, forever strong.
A land of beauty, wild and free,
Uganda, a true symphony.
