[Verse]
Streetlights flicker they whisper slow
Matatus honk like trumpets blow
A boda zooms past a rooster's crow
The air is thick with stories untold
[Prechorus]
Smells of chai and mandazi rise
Under a kaleidoscope of skies
[Chorus]
Oh Nairobi you dance you hum
With every heartbeat of the drum
City of rhythm city of sun
You’re never still you’re never done
[Verse 2]
Hawkers call out with voices bold
Selling treasures
New and old
A child skips rope on cracked concrete
Her laughter tangles with the beat
[Prechorus]
Dusty roads and vibrant hues
Every turn brings something new
[Chorus]
Oh Nairobi you dance you hum
With every heartbeat of the drum
City of rhythm city of sun
You’re never still you’re never done
