beautiful anthem to sing , especially when drunk, it's just beautiful

[FatHoElderlyCenter]

They sounded better in the African parts. The Afrikaans didnt sound too well.

[makokun9]

Whites singing passionately in Xhosa and Zulu, and blacks singing passionately in Afrikaans... a truly inspiring picture.

[InVlaanderensVelden]

No, a depressive making picture...

[makokun9]

In the mind of racist idiots, perhaps.

[InVlaanderensVelden]

No, in minds of people who are not blind for problems of that surrealistic state called RSA!

Blacks and whites are here togehter doing if nothing is happening/happened in their country, now and in the past!

[makokun9]

Realistic or utterly pessimistic?

Fortunately, not everyone feels the you do about SA, in spite of all its problems which, eventually, will be overcome.

No theres nothing about our troubled past. Its all positive and uplifting. Here's the translation: Lord, bless Africa May her spirit rise high up Hear thou our prayers Lord bless us. Lord, bless Africa Banish wars and strife Lord, bless our nation Of South Africa. Ringing out from our blue heavens From our deep seas breaking round Over everlasting mountains Where the echoing crags resound ...

Nkosi+Die Stem (our SA national anthem) is the most lyrical and moving of all anthems!!! Always brings tears to my eyes. God, it's me! Please, please and please bless the rainbow nation.

.. and btw. God, thank you for being such a good mate and letting the Springsboks winning the RWC hehe

[09BowornratP]

yes, i hope all blacks win next time though, but no one can deny the boks played really well

[bripat22]

I don't know if adding Die Stem to Nkosi was a good idea musically though I understand the reasoning.

[soulposishun]

I disagree.. I think the way it comes together makes our anthem much more interesting than most.. as most have little to no changes, incredibly boring.

Hi, i discovered the anthem of south africa watching the RWC 07, and I must say that it is truly beautiful. Compliments.

This Video is awesome. Thanks to Fuzigish8 for putting it on. I am not South African but I wish my Country had an Anthem that was as rousing as this. Every time I play this Video is send shivers. This Anthem ranks with Old Soviet Union, American and French Anthems as one of the best. I love the way the Crowd raise their arms like a football crowd! Wish I had been there...not in Paris...but in Temple Walkabout.... Magic!

[thscott]

one of the best anthems there is... very powerful, and four languages! great video!
