Oh, Uganda! I see in your eyes
That you've suffered so long
I feel it in skies, Uganda
I hear it in your song
And oh, Uganda! I know from your smile
That we'll always be friends
Everybody knows, Uganda
A smile wins in the end

With a smile that would warm the coldest soul
In a way the morning sunlight failed to
With a story that could hit the hardest heart
And break that beating heart in two
With a pride that is all your very own
With a hunger that's so so real
With a longing to finally reach your home
With a hope you can touch and feel

Oh, Uganda! I see in your eyes
That you've suffered so long
I feel it in skies, Uganda
I hear it in your song
And oh, Uganda! I know from your smile
That we'll always be friends
Everybody knows, Uganda
A smile wins in the end
The laughter of your children carries on the breezes
Blowing into beautiful places
And the wonder of it all is that they laugh at all
Given all the troubles they're faced with
With a pride that is all their very own
And a hunger that's so so real
With a longing to finally reach their homes
With a hope you can touch and feel

Oh, Uganda! I see in your eyes
That you've suffered so long
I feel it in skies, Uganda
I hear it in your song
And oh, Uganda! I know from your smile
That we'll always be friends
Everybody knows, Uganda
A smile wins in the end

Oh, Uganda!
Oh, Uganda!
Oh, Uganda!
Oh, Uganda!
