South Africa
Embracing Freedom: Linda Kekana's Anthem to a Vibrant South Africa
Lyrics
I wake up this morning in a land I can call home
I wake up today feeling like I am in a place I can consider my home.
I wake up this morning in a land of the free
I wake up today in a country that values freedom.
I wake up this morning in a land of the sunshine
I wake up today in a land characterized by abundant sunshine.
That is South Africa
All these elements collectively represent South Africa.
Finally I'm free to be what I wanna be
Finally, I feel liberated to pursue my desires and aspirations.
Finally I'm free to live where I wanna live
Now I have the freedom to live where I choose.
Finally I'm free to say what I wanna say
I am now able to express myself freely.
That is a great land for me
South Africa is a wonderful place for me.
I wake up this morning to a brand new day
Each day presents a fresh start.
I wake up this morning to a clear blue sky
The day starts with a beautiful, unobstructed sky.
I wake up this morning and reached for my dreams
I wake up motivated to pursue my dreams.
That is victory to me
Achieving my dreams signifies victory to me.
Gone are the clouds that cloud over me
Obstacles that previously hindered me are now gone.
And gone are the obstacles that that stood in my way
All the barriers that blocked my path are removed.
And gone are the tears that clouded my eyes
The sadness or difficulties I faced have disappeared.
All things are possible for me
I feel that anything is achievable for me now.
We've come a long way to achieve this freedom
We've made significant progress to attain this freedom.
We all is free as we believe
Freedom is as real as we believe it to be.
United we stood to achieve this freedom
We stood together in unity to achieve this freedom.
Together we shall overcome
By staying united, we will conquer all challenges.
