    Uyimaz’ebhonxileUyimaz’ebhonxileo
    Uyindlezane nakwabo bakubukulayo
    Ungumncedi ngemin’ezinzima
    Ubomi abuphelelanga ngaphandle kwakho
    Imfund’ayiphelelanga ngaphandle kolwazi lwakho
    Zonk’izizwe zibonela kuwe
    Kufundisw’iintsana ngawe
    Kodwa wena ubumbedlengerha
    Kuba bonk’uburhalarhume bolathwa kuwe
    Noko nje ingazange ibe nguwe
    Igolid’isilivere ne oli ikuwe
    Ntonje ilungiswa kumazw’ongawaziyo
    Gxeb’ongawacelanga
    Koko bakuhathile bekuxhokonkxa
    Bezama konke abakho baxhokonxane.

    Lusuku lokubhiyozela wena Afrika!
    Wen’othwel’izizwe zehlabathi
    Obantu bambala ufana nomhlaba
    Ntw’ezibumnyama bukhanyayo
    Apho kuphumla amawethu akowethu
    Izizw’ezikude zikulindile ziyakulangazelela
    Jerusalemandini yelizw’elaziwayo
    Ezo zitalato zibutyebi nguwe

    Sivul’amehlo thina bakho bomgquba
    Sikukhankany’ukubaluleka kwakho
    Wen’oxway’umhlaba wonke
    Ngenduli neentaba zakho ezinomtsalane
    Nezidenge mazize zithethe
    Izithulu neemfama zitsho kulunge
    Sithi camagu mhlekazi Afrika ngolu suku
    Enkosi ngokwenzelela lula zonk’izizwe zehlabathi
    Umsindleko nesithsaba zikufanele!.
