Lord, protect our nation,Morena boloka setjhaba sa heso,
End the wars and troubles,O fedise dintwa le matshwenyeho,
Keep us safe, keep us safe, our nation,O se boloke, O se boloke setjhaba sa heso,
The nation of South Africa - South Africa.Setjhaba sa South Afrika - South Afrika.
(Sotho)(sesotho)

From the blue of our sky,Uit die blou van onse hemel,
From the depths of our sea,Uit die diepte van ons see,
Over our eternal mountains,Oor ons ewige gebergtes,
Where the cliffs respond,Waar die kranse antwoord gee,
(Afrikaans)(africâner)

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