"Mwaki Ũtangĩhoreka (The Inextinguishable Fire) is a prison diary secretly written in Gĩkũyũ language when the author was in prison in Kenya between 1982 and 1988 for a crime of thought. It is a devastating expose of Kenya's neocolonial politics during Moi's reign of terror."

"Rũrũ nĩ rũgano rwa kĩrĩu
Rũrũ nĩ rũgano rwa magegania
Rũrũ nĩ rũgano rwĩ na gĩkeno
Rũrũ rũgano rwĩ na ngunyĩrĩrĩ

Nĩ rũgano rwa Abirika itũ

Rũgano rwa mũndũ mũirũ
Rũgano rwa gwĩkũwa na gwĩkũngũĩra
Rũgano rũgũtũma twĩhũge na twĩhũgũre
Rũgano rũratũria twĩtiire na twĩtĩye na citũ

Rekei tũmbũke na Mfuachuma
Rekei atũtware ng'endoinĩ cia kwĩyonera
Rekei twĩmenyere maingĩ marĩa tũtoe
Rekei atũhithũrĩrie hitho iria itũire i hithe

Hitho iria igũtũma twĩrore rĩngĩ twĩmenye wega
Hitho iria igũtũma twĩtiire na twĩtĩye na bũrũri witũ
Hitho iria igũtũma tũgarũrĩre mĩthiĩre na mĩkĩnyũkĩrie itũ

Ũtonga wa Abirika ũtongie Abirika
Ũtonga wa thiomi citũ ũtũme ithomithie Abirika
Ũtonga wa meciria maitũ ũtũme macarie Abirika itũ

Mĩikarĩre itũ tũmĩkũrie ĩnoore na ĩnorie mĩoyo itũ
Njiarwa na njiarwa, tene na tene!

Rĩu nĩ tũmbũke rĩerainĩ na Mfuachuma
Na tũkĩũmbũka nake, na ithuĩ twĩyugĩre:

Nyoni nyonia nyone!"

"Ũtukũ ũmwe Ngũgĩ nĩ ahahũkire toro
Akĩigua ta ahingũka maitho ma ngoro
Ta arĩ ũhoro araguũrĩrio
Agĩthiĩ methainĩ akĩoya karamu
Akĩandĩka rũrũ rwa Gĩkũyũ na Mũmbi
Na rwa Kenda wa mũiyũru
Kwa ũguo rũũrũ ti hithitũrĩ nĩ kĩguũrĩrio;

Kĩguũrĩrio kĩa Wendo
Kĩguũrĩrio kĩa mwĩhoko
Kĩguũrĩrio kĩa ũmĩrĩru
Kĩguũrĩrio kĩa ũcamba
Kĩguũrĩrio kĩa ũmenyo

Rĩu gĩtoboke ibuku-inĩ rĩrĩ
Wĩmenyere cia Gĩkũyũ na Mũmbi
Na cia kenda wao mũiyũru
Wĩiguĩre cia ũthaka wa Kenda ũyũ
Na ũgima wao wa mwĩrĩ, ngoro na kĩongo."
