I'm still listening to this in 2023. Lana, you blew this out the water! I'm not even from SA, but this song and your rendition gave me hope for a better world.
I am a Kenyan who went to flight school in South Africa. The first time I went to South Africa I was mugged at gun point in Jozi CBD but I love South Africa . I am obsessed with Springboks rugby team, curry cup, super rugby, I even support South Africa sevens when playing against my own country.I have this anthem memorized. My perfect vacation is singing this anthem at a Springbok game. I wish the few xenophobic SouthAfricans knew how good of a country you have and that us fellow Africans have nothing but love for ya’ll.
Omg yes! So many South Africans take their beautiful country for granted. I can safely say I'm envious of the life there lol. Just look at the strong economy man, just 16R to 1 usd?🤯 Love from Tz🇹🇿♥️🇿🇦
South africans who dont know their history are the biggest stumbling blocks for progress. I have two uncles who had to flee the country during apartheid because they were seen as enemies of the state because of their resistance to apartheid. One was received by Zambia and the other by Kenya. They ended up being welcomed and made families in both countries. Our people dont know Africans were a refuge when the apartheid government was hanging freedom fighters in Pretoria. I love my Zambian and Kenyan family and it's a shame you were treated harshly on what is all our motherland. I dream of a day when we can all embrace each other, fellow africans including white africa. We are all on this earth together. It's sad that can be divided by borders and skin color so easily.
@@danielsummerton2259 But is the country now better? I understand that no civil rights and racism are dumb and not understandable things, but economically and under safety aspects the life for the average black man isn't better today! A peaceful transition, to a ruling Boer government, but without racism would have been far better. Look at Johannesburg today, look at Johannesburg 40 years ago....
c'est l'hymne de lafrique qui signifie dieux benisse l'afrique il l'on fusionné avec die stem qui signifie l'appel c'est lancien hymne afrikaner pour donner nkosi sikelel' i afrika. dautre pays africain ont le même hymne. malawi ,tanzanie aussi et d'autre encore
very good national anthem, an inclusive one - that they included the language of their oppressors is a testament to their forgiveness. This is a nation for the future, built not on revenge nor on hate, but on respect.
It is Indeed an inclusive anthem. I don't see that spirit of inclusion in the rhetoric of Julius malema, the chant 'kill the Boer,' or the ethnic cleansing of white farmers.
Its magic. I get the same feeling I hear it everytime. We were just there. We went to Robben Island and saw Mandellas cell. It was totally humiliating. Empty but for a rug and little else and hot. That he could transcend under these circumstances and not show utter hatred to his captors shows how the spirit can rise above all else. My greatest respect to him. I just did not realize what he went through.
I hope that he is getting better. There is always hope with the advancement of medicine. I heard that they have just discovered a new medication last week.
Amazing National Anthem, that bring different races together as one in difficult time.... The New Zealanders have the "Haka"...but the South Africans have the "National Anthem"!

Wow-gave me goosebumps. Those are people who have genuine pride in their country. Not like in the United States. I stopped watching professional sports over a year ago because of the kneeling during the National Anthem. I am a Vietnam vet (Navy). My father was a Korean War vet (Marines). My grandfather was a WWI vet (Army) and my great-grandfather was a Spanish-American War vet (Army). I am more than a little sensitive over this. However, if I saw these U.S. athletes singing our National Anthem with the same pride exhibited by the South African athletes and the people in the stands, I would gladly start watching professional sports again. Sadly, I don’t believe this will happen. By the way, I do miss watching these sports. Breaks my heart.
Woow so many white europeans representing south africa...i never liked rugby ,seems colonisers sports...but that anthem gives goosebumps..the apartheid and colonisation the natives south africans experienced and how forgiving they are. ..i thank God im not from SA ,i wouldnt forgive that easily those who stole my land n killed my people.
Proud South African,, love are country coming together 🇿🇦🇿🇦
Lovely anthem, lovely Country. Greetings from the Netherlands
That was the day Ireland won on South African soil for the first time. Proud to be irish 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
Proud of what? Disfunctional and failed state.
Thanks to Nelson Mandela. All kind of people singing together. No matter of the color of skin.
If Willem de Klerk wasn't, Nelson Mandela would've died in that prison, so thanks for de Klerk *and* Mandela, right?

seems like some people forget that de Klerk played a big role in ending apartheid in South Africa
That’s it just there you have said it all! Best comment ever
It is not just a song, but Our Cry and a Prayer to the unseen Creator. I am a South African.👏🏿
goosebumps all over! amazing rendition. much love from nigeria
Listen to the rendition from the Stellenbosch University Choir its also sooo good
Wow, this lady sure knows how to sing. Beautiful voice.

I dont know why i am obsessed with RSA. ...even down to the National Anthem🥺

Um dos mais belos hinos que já ouvi ! 🇿🇦🇧🇷
Também achei, depois que ouvi a primeira vez, não paro de escutar, já até aprendi a letra
I love how Lana sang the national anthem
Not only did she sang the national anthem beautifully but she does it with passion
I love how she seems a little bit shy at the begin, but then she blew out such an amazing powerful voice
Congratulations for your national holiday on 27th April Sout Africa from your friends in Germany
Beautiful
I thought I could sing.....gosh dah voice is everything....like everything Lana
That little blond boy is my grandson Edward Jones, He has cystic fibrosis
I hope that he is getting better. There is always hope with the advancement of medicine. I heard that they have just discovered a new medication last week.
Amazing national anthem from an amazing place.

Que hermoso himno de Sudáfrica compuesto por parte de todas las razas que habitan en Sudáfrica

This is the first one that I learned by heart. My favorite part is the transition to Afrikaans
Respect South Africa 🇿🇦
So beautiful!
Love love love Africa, and this song is Her spirit! ❤❤❤
She sang well and diction was good.
Amazing National Anthem, that bring different races together as one in difficult time.... The New Zealanders have the "Haka"...but the South Africans have the "National Anthem"!

People leave South Africa.
And i am here trying to move to South Africa ♥️
Our prayer
So proud of South Africa for taking that monstres regime to the ICJ
Just remember this unity is what the EFF party hate
If the EFF ever somehow wins then Mandela’s legacy will have been in vain.

While I respect your service you fought for a person’s freedom to do such things. Keep that in mind. Patriotism does not mean blind obedience.
