Lyrics
Chorus
Some said you were never gonna make it
you bring us hope
You light the way
And said to the world yes we can
you bring us hope
Oo wiyeete ko barack obama
You bring us hope
Baabum ummirii ko Kenya
You bring us hope
1st verse
I had a dream about a man who became a president
A colorless view of a visionary man
Now He is the man
With courage from his mother
And the strength from his father
Hes leading the way (x 2 )
We all have a chance you know!
Chorus
2nd verse
Its all about giving hope to the people
Erasing the roots of evil
Its all about going to the man on the street
And tell him, we need him to make it
Its all about giving hope to the children
And tell them, theres only one world
Its all about opening your mind to a new era
A time when peace can unfold
Obama baaba wii ma
Hoto woppu diine ma Obama
Oo wii ma ko a neddo tan
Ma njagga ndiimaagu maa ko tiidi
Chorus
Bridge
Obama baaba wii ma
( Obama , your father told you )
Hoto woppu diine ma Obama
( to keep your faith strong )
Oo wii ma ko a neddo tan
( he told you : as a human )
Ma njagga ndiimaagu maa ko tiidi
( you have to live with dignity )
Ko mbawda fof , ko lenyol haalii wii Ina yidi laamoda
(whatever you can do , it is the people that decided to make you a president )
Do tolniida ko Allah hoddirii ha danya ko njidnooda
( whatever you can achieve , god is upon your success )
