O God, thou has let me pass the night in peace,
Let me pass the day in peace.
Wherever I may go
Upon my way which thou hast made peaceable for me,
O God, lead my steps.
When I have spoken,
Keep off calumny from me.
When I am hungry,
Keep me from murmuring.
When I am satisfied,
Keep me from pride.
Calling upon thee, I pass the day,
O God who hast no God.
-Boran from Kenya
