LYRICS Nkosi sikelel' iAfrika Maluphakanyisw' uphondo lwayo, Yizwa imithandazo yethu, Nkosi sikelela, thina lusapho lwayo. Morena boloka setjhaba sa heso, O fedise dintwa le matshwenyeho, O se boloke, O se boloke setjhaba sa heso, Setjhaba sa South Afrika - South Afrika. Uit die blou van onse hemel, Uit die diepte van ons see, Oor ons ewige gebergtes, Waar die kranse antwoord gee, Sounds the call to come together, And united we shall stand, Let us live and strive for freedom, In South Africa our land. [Paragraph 1 Xhosa Paragraph 2 Sesotho Paragraph 3 Afrikaans Paragraph 4 English] |
ENGLISH TRANSLATION God bless Africa, Lift her horn on high, Hear our prayers. God bless us Who are Your people. God save our nation, End wars and strife. South Africa. Ringing out from our blue heavens, from our deep seas breaking round; Over everlasting mountains Where the echoing crags resound |
