Lishe Bora

Jumaa Maro Buya 1988 (Tana River)



Ya nuni naskia,mnavu nanukia,
Wari mboga nabugia,heko shangwe meridhia
umbo zuri kuvutia,pia mwili hukua,
Tulinde yetu afya,kwa kupata  lishe bora,.

Tulinde yetu afya,Ndizi nyama na matoke,
mseto wehu au funda,boboro,muswa tuweke,
nguvu kazi huleta,taifa Kenya Makeke,
Tulinde yetu afya,kwa kupata  lishe bora

mngazija tapata kimanga,izu tapata kinolo,
gwere,tsafe na mutsunga,tamu Sana lo!loo!
lishe bora tutaunga,ngozi nawiri na pilao,
Tulinde yetu afya,kwa kupata  lishe bora.
Asanteni
