For the fallen soldiers
From the commanders
To the sharpshooters
And esteemed paratroopers
Among you were fathers
With you were brothers
Beloved brothers and sisters
Sons, uncles and aunties
Members of the Amisom
You fought in unison
A great force of reason
Serving in great liaison
For years you have served
Honour and respect you deserved
In bounty or when starved
Your loyalty you preserved
You braved cold nights
Stood strong to fight
Till the enemy took the flight
Far beyond our borders sight
For so long you endured
All the bullet storms you sheltered
Wit grenades you were paltered
You maintained ground, unaltered
With the setting sun yesterday
Fate spelt doom on your day
The enemy crossed your way
There was no time for mayday
With the bullet your life wasted
62 of you brutally murdered
62 dreams alike totally shattered
The worst memory to be remembered
Even in death you remain heroes
Your victory will never be zeros
Against the enemy tide you rose
To protect our countries from foes
In our hearts you will forever live
In our memories you will remain alive
To remind us of the price
You paid with your lives in service
To our sovereign nation KENYA
