Soli Deo Gloria is one of the Five Solas of the Reformation. It is expressed in the Latin language, and simply means, to God ALONE be all the glory. The others are:

Sola Scriptura! - The Bible ALONE is the word of God!
Solus Christus! - Jesus Christ ALONE is the saviour of His people
Sola Fide! - Faith ALONE is the means by which we are saved.
Sola Gratia! - By God's grace ALONE we are saved!

Soli Deo Gloria was written on South African currency. Here is a link to a picture so that you can see what it looked like.

When you get to that link, simply click on the coin and you will get a very large picture of it, on which you can clearly see those precious words, "Soli Deo Gloria" - To God ALONE be the glory.

From what I can make out on Google, Afrikaans lyrics are hard to come by, so I had to rely on my good ears in order to pull these lyrics off this video. I have also translated them into English. Here is the English translation:

Soli Deo Gloria, Soli Deo Gloria,
Soli Deo Gloria,
Everything that lives must praise the Lord

Soli Deo, Soli Deo

From the deepest sea to the highest cliff
Through the leafy grass to where the ribbuck dances
From the craters in our foundation
To the far reaches of our farthest moon
Everything that lives, everything that lives
Everything that lives must praise the Lord

Gloria

Soli Deo Gloria, Soli Deo Gloria Soli Deo Gloria
Everything that lives must praise the Lord

Soli Deo, Soli Deo

Raise your hands, let creation bow
Let the waterfall in the rivers rejoice
Through the plains to the horizon
Across the wide world we must sing

Everything that lives, everything that lives,
Everything that lives must praise the Lord

Gloria

Soli Deo Gloria, Soli Deo Gloria, Soli Deo Gloria
Everything that lives must praise the Lord

Soli Deo -- Gloria
Soli Deo -- Gloria
Soli Deo -- Gloria
Everything that lives must praise the Lord
Everything that lives must praise the Lord
