One rainbow nation
A rising sun
An African Sunset

Granny can live where she wants
Granny can walk without a pass
Freely, she casts her vote
Freely, she can have a voice

Ears of wheat
The tusk of the elephant
The Khoi and Sun
The first ancestors of our land

We Recognise the injustices of the past
But we Unite in our diversity
We heal the divisions of our past
As we free each one’s potential
Democracy
The national flag
Black, gold, green, white, red and blue
Reflecting the history, traditions
Diverse cultures and languages

The children’s charter
Given a name and nationality as soon as I am born
Protected from child labour
And any other economic exploitation
