Love Poem: SHINE, OH UGANDA, SHINE

SHINE, OH UGANDA, SHINE

Oh Uganda—
The crane with wings
Spread them wide and fly
Let the wind sing.

Let that shield and spear shine
For you dwell in a land so divine.
With love you all are bound
Let your light be fine.

Shine, oh Uganda, shine
For now is the time
To polish your spear
And get your shield to shine.

From the bustling streets of Kampala
To the far ends of the savannah
Let your rich culture light the way
Shine, oh Uganda, shine.
