Ibambeni njalo bakithi [Hold on tight my people]
Ninga dinwa [Don't get weary]
Ninga phelelwa nga mandla [Don't lose your strength]

Siya ba bona [We can see]
Bebe fun' ukusi qeda [They wanted to hold us back]

One by one
Ngeke ba lunge [They will not succeed]
One by one
Sizo nqoba [We will win]
One by one
Ngeke ba lunge [They will not succeed]
One by one

Ibambeni njalo bakithi [Hold on tight my people]
Ninga dinwa [Don't get weary]
Ninga phelelwa nga mandla [Don't lose your strength]

Siya ba bona [We can see]
Babe fun' ukusi qeda [They wanted to hold us back]

One by one
Ngeke ba lunge [They will not succeed]
One by one
Sizo nqoba [We will win]
(Repeat)

Ngoba thina [Because]
Siya zazi [We know who we are]
(Repeat)

Ibala lami [The color of my skin]
Elimnyama [That is dark]
Ndiya zidla [I'm proud]
Ngalo [Of it]
Ibala lami [The color of my skin]
Elimnyama [That is dark]
Ndiza kufa [I will die]
Nalo [With it]
(Repeat to fade)
