Nkosi Sikelel'Afrika (South African National Anthem)

Nkosi sikelel′ iAfrika
Maluphakanyisw' uphondo lwayo,
AYizwa imithandazo yethu,
Nkosi sikelela, thina lusapho lwayo.
(Xhosa e zulu)

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.
(Sesotho)

Uit die blou van onse hemel,
Uit die diepte van ons see,
Oor ons ewige gebergtes,
Waar die kranse antwoord gee,
(Africâner)

Sounds the call to come together,
And united we shall stand,
Let us live and strive for freedom,
In South Africa our land.

Nkosi Sikelel'Afrika (South African National Anthem)

Lord bless Africa
May her horn be lifted up,
Hear Thou our prayers,
Lord bless us, Thy children.
(Xhosa and Zulu)

God save our nation,
End all our wars and tribulations,
Sustain our nation,
The nation of South Africa - South Africa.
(Sesotho)

From the blue of our sky,
From the depths of our seas,
Over our everlasting mountains,
Where the echoing crags resound,
(Africâner)

Sounds the call to come together,
And united we shall stand,
Let us live and strive for freedom,
In South Africa our land.
