Chorus

Makerere, Makerere, We build for the future, The Great Makerere
Great, Great and Mighty, The walls around thee
Great, Great and Mighty, 
The gates beside thee X4

(1)

From East and West, From North and South

All voices singing, Arise Makerere
Rise up and rise, High up and high
All voices singing
Arise Makerere

(2)

Do not forget, Through all the years

Those who have gone through the gates of Makerere
Give them the pride, Give them the joy
Oh! To remember, The gates of Makerere

(3)

Those who here be, Seek ye the truth

Build for the future, The great Makerere
Those here have been, Those here will be
Build for the future, 
The Great Makerere
