South Africa National Anthem (1938-1997; Instrumental Midi) Die Stem van Suid-Afrika
"The Voice of South Africa" (Afrikaans: "Die Stem van Suid-Afrika"), also known as "The Call of South Africa" or simply "Die Stem" is a former national anthem of South Africa. There are two versions of the song, one in English and the other in Afrikaans, which were in use early on in the British-governed Union of South Africa alongside God Save the Queen and as the sole anthem after South Africa declared its independence. It was the sole national anthem from 1957 to 1994, and shared co-national anthem status with "God Save the King/Queen" from 1938 to 1957. After the end of apartheid in the early 1990s, it was retained as a co-national anthem along with "Nkosi Sikelel' iAfrika" from 1994 to 1997, when a new hybrid song incorporating elements of both songs was adopted as the country's new national anthem.
(English Lyrics)
Ringing out from our blue heavens,
From our deep seas breaking round;
Over everlasting mountains,
Where the echoing crags resound;
From our plains where creaking wagons
Cut their trails into the earth,
Calls the spirit of our country,
Of the land that gave us birth.
At thy call we shall not falter,
Firm and steadfast we shall stand,
At thy will to live or perish,
O South Africa, dear land.
(Afrikaans Lyrics / Afrikaanse Lirieke)
Uit die blou van onse hemel,
Uit die diepte van ons see,
Oor ons ewige gebergtes
Waar die kranse antwoord gee.
Deur ons vêr-verlate vlaktes
Met die kreun van ossewa –
Ruis die stem van ons geliefde,
Van ons land Suid-Afrika.
Ons sal antwoord op jou roepstem,
Ons sal offer wat jy vra:
Ons sal lewe, ons sal sterwe –
Ons vir jou, Suid-Afrika.
