Amosi!

Amosi in my language means 'I greet you'
My name is Sunshine and I'm happy to meet you
This is my sister, she's not quite so bright
Oh she's plenty smart, but her name means 'Night'


We're from a small village in a country called Kenya
Would you like to visit, or should I ask, 'Can ya?'

You can! That's great, then hop on a jet
We'll give you a tour you'll never forget


First, you'll see our capitol, Nairobi, when you land
It's a modern city, so the traffic might be jammed

But it won't take you long to reach the countryside
And the trip to our village is a wonderful ride

You'll pass high land and dry land and the Great Rift

And grassland where dwell the grand and the swift
Just don't be alarmed when your pace is slowed
By the mild and the wild crossing the road
