[Intro]
Ah! Nyeri! Baptisti! (Sikika!)
Mt. Kenya inatushuhudia — tunainuka!
(punch ad-libs: ah, woo, ayo)
[Verse 1] (8 bars)
Nilifika gate, uniformu safi, kitabu mkononi — ndoto sio ndoto tu,
Mt. Kenya uke juu, tunasoma, tunacheza, tunaweka funda juu.
Chapel ya asubuhi, mashairi ya roho, notes chini ya taa mpaka late, no sleep,
Lab za kemi, mikono kwenye test tube — tunazalisha next deep beat.
Uwanja wa footi, magoli kwa rally, tunapiga sherehe kila weekend,
Prefects wanatoa mwanga, teachers wanatoa plan — kila mwanafunzi ana trend.
Library ni makazi ya siri, tunavuna mawazo, tunavua hofu,
Nyeri Baptist spirit — umoja, kazi, imani; tuko mbele, sio nyuma, tuko juu.
[Chorus / Hook] (4 bars — call & response)
Kiongozi: Nyeri Baptist High, tunainuka juu! (Wote: Tunainuka!)
Kiongozi: Nyeri Baptist High, moyo imara, hakuna kuuza! (Wote: Hakuna kuuza!)
Kiongozi: Nyeri Baptist High — tumejengea utu, tumejengea nguvu! (Wote: Tumejengea!)
Tagline ad-lib: Ayo — Nyeri, Nyeri, Nyeri!
[Verse 2] (10 bars)
Mbele ya chalkboard, teacher anatoa punchline, internal rhyme, class in sync,
Tukiangalia Mt. Kenya, tunaona mustaqbali — vision is the link.
Sprint za morning drills, assembly ya passion, tunaswali, tunaimba,
Kauli mbiu ya campus — heshima, kazi, uhakika; tuko pamoja, hakuna kuwa mbali.
Kuandika exam, lakini pia kuandika historia — tunastamp naamani,
Kiwango cha mara moja, kila mwana na dream, kila dereva anakimbia na maana.
Sheng mix kwenye corridor: ‘Sasa iko, we push, tuende high,’
Wimbo wa darasa, choir ya chapel — sauti zinamwaga hope to the sky.
Punchline: kutoka gate hadi globe, tutaenda — Nyeri ni base, dreams ni code,
Outro line verse 2 ad-lib: Sisi ni watoto wa Nyeri — tuliweka kiwango, tumeweka mode.
[Bridge] (6 bars — slower, emotional)
Asubuhi ya fog, jua linachomoza upande wa mlima — tunaamka kwa matumaini,
Memory ya first day, handshake ya teacher, mapenzi ya shule — bado iko ndani.
Hapo tulipata rafiki, hapo tulipata kanisa, lab, pitch — kila corner ina hadithi,
Sauti za zamani, zinasikika — tunarudia ahadi: tutakumbuka, tutaendelea, hatutabidhi.
Call-response soft: (Kiongozi: Kwa vizazi vingi — Wote: Nyeri itaimarika)
Ad-lib: Ah, tutaendelea, tutaendelea — tunajenga legacy.
[Chorus / Hook] (repeat, 4 bars)
Kiongozi: Nyeri Baptist High, tunainuka juu! (Wote: Tunainuka!)
Kiongozi: Nyeri Baptist High, moyo imara, hakuna kuuza! (Wote: Hakuna kuuza!)
Kiongozi: Nyeri Baptist High — tumejengea utu, tumejengea nguvu! (Wote: Tumejengea!)
Ad-lib tag: Nyeri! Baptisti! Up! Up!
[Outro / Rally Tag] (4 bars)
Sisi ni Walimu, Sisi ni Wanafunzi, sisi ni familia — tunasimama pamoja,
Mt. Kenya iko juu — tunainuka juu, tunainuka bila kuacha, bila kuchelewa.
Crowd chant final: Nyeri Baptist High! (Tunainuka!) — Nyeri Baptist High! (Tunainuka!)
Last ad-lib: Ayo — 94 BPM, thump the 808, bongo clap — Nyeri for life!
