      The current National Anthem of South Africa is a hybrid national anthem mixing "Nkosi sikelel iAfrika" and "Die Stem van Suid Afrika" since 1997

      @TheRenaissanceman65 it does not form part of Nkosi Sikelel'i Afrika, it forms part of the national anthem of south africa, but Nkosi Sikelel'i Afrika and die stem are seperate songs too

    • @FD-vj6hd
      @FD-vj6hd 4 роки тому +5

      @TheRenaissanceman65 I mean, it's just not, it's the opposite. You said "Part of it now forms the end of Nkosi Sikelel'i Afrika" and I said, "it does not form part of Nkosi Sikelel'i Afrika". Nkosi Sikelel'i Afrika and the South African National Anthem are not the same thing. Nkosi and Die Stem are two separate songs, both of which are part of the national anthem, but Die Stem isn't the end part of Nkosi, it's the end part of the anthem, just like Nkosi isn't the beginning of Die Stem, it's the beginning of the anthem. It really shouldn't be this difficult, and given that it is, it seems you're not much of a renaissance map

    Lyrics for spanish speakers.
    Aquí te dejo la letra del Himno traducida
    Esta canción es cantada en varias lenguas: xhosa, zulú, sesotho, afrikáans e inglés.
    "Nkosi sikelel' iAfrika" significa "Dios bendiga a África"
    Xhosa
    Nkosi sikelel' iAfrika
    Maluphakanyisw' uphondo lwayo,
    Dios bendiga a África
    Que alce su gloria
    Zulú
    Yizwa imithandazo yethu,
    Nkosi sikelela, thina lusapho lwayo.
    Escúchanos, Señor
    bendícenos, a nosotros, tus hijos.
    Sesotho
    Morena boloka setjhaba sa heso,
    O fedise dintwa le matshwenyeho,
    O se boloke, o se boloke sechaba sa heso,
    Setjhaba sa, South Afrika, South Afrika!
    Señor, te rogamos que protejas nuestra nación,
    Intervén y cesa todos los conflictos
    Protégenos, Protege nuestra nación,
    Protege a Sudáfrica, Sudáfrica!
    Afrikáans
    Del azul de nuestro cielo,
    De lo más profundo de nuestro mar,
    Sobre nuestros montes eternos,
    donde resuenan los ecos por las peñas,
    Inglés
    Sounds the call to come together,
    And united we shall stand,
    Let us live and strive for freedom,
    In South Africa our land.
    Suena el llamado a venir juntos,
    y unidos permaneceremos en pie,
    Vivamos y luchemos por la libertad
    en Sudáfrica, nuestra tierra.

He did all he can to prevent Apartheid, but he grew old with age and couldn't do it all alone. Before that, he was a General in the Commandos of the Transvaal. From which the Royal Marines were born. A nation once his enemy became pur closest ally at the time Jan Smuts was gone from this world.
