South Africa, unite
Verse 1
I don’t live on an island. Together we must stand
I’m not living just for me but the empowerment of our country.
What we do today affects tomorrow so let’s hold hands
And build a better tomorrow for our children and you and me.
Don’t give up despite this high tide. I’ll stay here right by your side
We can only conquer this together and take back our power
Chorus
We all dream of a safe and prosperous South Africa
Unite, all of us, and fight this – we owe it to her.
She is a beautiful land enriched with history and culture
Bearing food and natural shelter and breathtaking nature.
If we truly love South Africa, let’s stand up for her.
Verse 2
He taunts, he is scary and dark. His cruelty has left a painful mark.
But I refuse to let it consume me and I choose to lose the hate.
I free myself of this beast and I’m not afraid of his bark.
Crime and poverty is beatable. There is hope, it’s not too late
Don’t give up despite this high tide. I’ll stay here right by your side
We can only conquer this together and take back our power
Chorus
We all dream of a safe and prosperous South Africa
Unite, all of us, and fight this – we owe it to her.
She is a beautiful land enriched with history and culture
Bearing food and natural shelter and breathtaking nature.
If we truly love South Africa, let’s stand up for her.
Verse 3
It’s something that affects each and every one of us.
These criminals are not role models; they’ve even lost selfrespect.
Education empowers nations and uplifts all of us.
Our South Africa, stand up for her, she’s too long in neglect.
Don’t give up despite this high tide. I’ll stay here right by your side
We can only conquer this together and take back our power
Chorus
We all dream of a safe and prosperous South Africa
Unite, all of us, and fight this – we owe it to her.
She is a beautiful land enriched with history and culture
Bearing food and natural shelter and breathtaking nature.
If we truly love South Africa, let’s stand up for her.
Verse 4
South Africans, the waters are deep but please keep faith
South Africans, united we shall cope, just live in hope
Believe our prayers are heard above and spread the love
Don’t give up despite this high tide. I’ll stay here right by your side
We can only conquer this together and take back our power
Chorus
We all dream of a safe and prosperous South Africa
Unite, all of us, and fight this – we owe it to her.
She is a beautiful land enriched with history and culture
Bearing food and natural shelter and breathtaking nature.
If we truly love South Africa, let’s stand up for her.
