Blessed be the Land of Zimbabwe
- O lift high the banner, the flag of Zimbabwe
- The symbol of freedom proclaiming victory;
- We praise our heros' sacrifice,
- And vow to keep our land from foes;
- And may the Almighty protect and bless our land.
- O lovely Zimbabwe, so wondrously adorned
- With mountians, and rivers cascading, flowing free;
- May rain abound, and fertile fields;
- May we be fed, our labour blessed;
- And may the Almighty protect and bless our land.
- O God, we beseech Thee to bless our native land;
- The land of our fathers bestowed upon us all;
- From Zambezi to Limpopo
- May leaders be exemplary;
- And may the Almighty protect and bless our land.
