​The Flag of Kenya and National Anthem.
​The flag of Kenya truly exemplifies the national unity and reflects the historical events that shaped our nation.
The Kenya flag consists of three equal-sized horizontal stripes of black, red and green, each holding a symbolic significance for the Kenya. The stripes are separated by two thinner white stripes and a large warrior's shield covered with crossed spears is superimposed over the flag's centre.
​The history and meaning of the flag of Kenya - The national flag of Kenya was adopted on Independence Day, December 12, 1963. It was based on the flag of KANU (Kenya African National Union), the political party that led Kenya to independence. The white stripes, the traditional Maasai shield, and the two crossed spears were added to the Kenyan flag after Kenya attained independence.

The colors symbolize:
  • Black - The indigenous Kenyan people
  • Red - The blood that was shed in the fight for independence
  • Green - Kenya's rich agricultural land and natural resources
​The color white symbolizes peace while the shield and spears signify that all Kenyans are always ready to defend the independence they fought so hard for.

​​The National Anthem of Kenya

The Kenya national anthem is a beautifully composed song with an authentic African melody. The anthem evokes a deep sense of patriotism among Kenyans. It is commonly played during international events, particularly during athletic events when Kenyan athletes excel.
​Swahili
English
Ee Mungu nguvu yetu
Ilete baraka kwetu
Haki iwe ngao na mlinzi
Natukae na undugu
Amani na uhuru
Raha tupate na ustawi.

Amkeni ndugu zetu
Tufanye sote bidii
Nasi tujitoe kwa nguvu
Nchi yetu ya Kenya
Tunayoipenda
Tuwe tayari kuilinda

Natujenge taifa letu
Ee, ndio wajibu wetu
Kenya istahili heshima
Tuungane mikono
Pamoja kazini
Kila siku tuwe na shukrani
O God of all creation
Bless this our land and nation
Justice be our shield and defender
May we dwell in unity
Peace and liberty
Plenty be found within our borders. 

Let one and all arise
With hearts both strong and true
Service be our earnest endeavor
And our homeland of Kenya
Heritage of splendor
Firm may we stand to defend.

Let all with one accord
In common bond united
Build this our nation together
And the glory of Kenya
The fruit of our labor
Fill every heart with thanksgiving.
While under British colonial rule, Kenya's official anthem was the British anthem "God Save the Queen" and "Kenya Land of the Lion" was the national song sung at sporting and other similar events.
Kenya! Land of the lion
Land of adventure and sun
Land where friendship and laughter
Wait for those who come after.
Onward! Grey skies or blue
We'll march steadfast and true.
Kenyans, staunch and united
We'll march on.

Kenya!Land of enchantment
We'll hold your banner on high.
Clear our voices are ringing
Youth and hope in our singing.
What of glory and fame?
We'll just stick to the game.
Kenyans, staunch and united
We'll march on.
