Original lyrics
ENLala salama
To the masai mara
And asante sana
To kichwa tembo
I'm going oloololo
Back to the world where I'm from
Soon I'll be flying solo
On a heading that follows the sun
Oloololo, oloololo, 'loololo
'cause I've been down from nairobi
Southeast of kisumu
To the waiting savanna
Like a place that I once knew
And the river was flowing
While the crocodile baked in the sun
With the elephant knowing
That a change had already begun
Oloololo, oloololo, 'loololo
Oloololo, oloololo
(lala salama) oloololo (to the masai mara)
(and asante sana) oloololo (to kichwa tembo)
