Lyrics to the Uganda Women National Anthem;

#Mentoringwalk #MentoringwalkUG #IWD #IWD2014 #Uganda

When I was requested to lead the ladies in singing the Uganda Women's Anthem at the Vital Voices Women's Mentoring Walk, ofcourse I ran to google for the Lyrics!

Guese what? Google only had videos and no Lyrics.

Ultimately I ran to my mum, who had always been my pot of wisdom before google and to my delight she knew all the Lyrics to the song.

So today I would like to share with you the Lyrics to this great song that my mum Mrs Fausia Namugga Konde Gava so generously passed on to me as a women's day gift for 2014!

Anthem Lyrics go;

Mothers, Daughters, All Women Every where wake up and Embrace your role today. * 2

Stanza 1

We are the proud mothers of the nation,
The backbone without which, it can never stand,
We, Wake up, Wake up,
We wake up at the crack of dawn,
And feed the nations with our breasts,
With love and joy We care for our baby Uganda

Stanza 2

Step by Step with tender care, We guide and mold her,
We Nurse her with morals, At home and in School
Leading, Leading,
Spearheading her identity, Production and development,
In all walks of life, To develop Uganda
