Lyrics:
Toe die wêreld hier nog jong was en die horison wyd en oop
Was dit groen hier in die halfrond, suid van die ewenaar
En in die skemer as die son sak en die beeste huis toe loop
Klink die roepstem van die vrouwe oor die heuvels van die land:
Halala, ewig is ons Afrika.
Tula tula mtanami, tula tula sanaboni, tula tula mtanami,
Ubab uzobuya sihlale naye, ubab uzobuya sihlale sonke, Hmmm-Hmmm
Toe kom die skepe uit die weste, wit seile oor die see
Om te vra vir kos en water en te bly vir so veel meer.
En die land wat een tyd oop was, die land het ons verruil
Vir die ghetto's van die stede is ons koperdraad gegee.
Halala, ewig is ons Afrika
Halala, sasiphila, kamnandi, halala, mayibuye Afrika
Tula tula mtanami, tula tula sanaboni, tula tula mtanami,
Ubab uzobuya sihlale naye, ubab uzobuya sihlale sonke, Hmmm-Hmmm
Daar was rykdom in die maag van ons moeder Afrika
Diamante en ook steenkool, goud, edel metaal
En die mense word die slawe hier want die mense word betaal
Om te tonnel in die aarde elke greintjie uit te haal
En die groot en oop grasvlaktes span dit toe met doringdraad
En van die olifant tot die gemsbok al die diere moes kom buig
Voor die mag van die grootwildjagter voor die mag van sy groot geweer
Totdat net die stilte oorbly, totdat net die stilte heers.
Halala, ewig is ons Afrika.
Halala, sasiphila, kamnandi, halala, mayibuye Afrika
Sasidjapolutjoloythina
Halala, sasiphila, kamnandi, halala, mayibuye Afrika

[@karensteenkamp6875]

I remember Barney Simon playing this on 5fm the night they announced Johannes passed away; it will always stay with me. Pragtige lied.

[@emileventer]

The english must lie about that. They have lied about poor afrikaners from day 1. We will trash white englishmen in africa once more. We will be known as the Boers. Otherwise trashed as the boer settlers by blacks whom they hated from the start..

[@grahamcawood5556]

Our South Africa is beautiful. Everyone just needs to respect eachothers cultures and traditions . Still allot of hope

Absolutely beautiful song

[@johnknottenbelt2727]

An absolute anthem for South Africa. May God guide our people put vote those in who WILL change our Country for the Better. This could be 'the New Dawn' we were praying for, not the one falsely one we were promised, by tongues that know how to lie without conscience or remorse ❤
