LYRICS:

isiZulu text:
Nkosi sikelela iAfrika.
Maluphakanyisw’u phondo lwayo.
Yizwa imithandazo yethu
sibe moya munye.
Noma sekunzima emhlabeni.
Sihlukunyezwa kabuhlungu.
Nkosi siph’amandla okunqoba
silwe nosathane.

English Translation:
God bless Africa.
Raise high her glory.
Hear our prayers
to be united in one spirit.
Even through hard times in this world.
When we are painfully abused.
Lord, give us strength for victory
to fight the devil.
