Verse 1
From
the
Copperbelt
down
to
Southern
plains,
The
voice
of
the
nation
has
broken
the
chains.
A
mandate
renewed,
the
people
have
spoken,
A
promise
of
progress
that
won't
be
broken.
The
ballot
was
cast,
the
future
is
bright,
Zambia
shining
in
morning
light.
Verse 2
Through
challenges
faced
and
mountains
climbed
high,
The
eagle
is
soaring
right
up
in
the
sky.
Ba
Hakainde,
the
leader
so
steady,
To
finish
the
work,
the
country
is
ready.
From
Lusaka
town
to
the
village
square,
There
is
peace
and
unity
everywhere.

Flowing
like

smooth
like
water!)
Education
for
all,
the
youth
stand
tall,
No
child
is
left
behind
by
this
wall.
The
economy
rising,
the
markets
awake,
Look
at
the
steps
that
we
get
to
take.
With

and

he
leads
the

Guiding
the
nation
from
day
to
day.

From
North-Western
horizons
to
Eastern
gold,
The
story
of
triumph
is
proudly
told.
Kumeso
hefu,
we
look
to
the
front,
No
room
for
division,
no
negative
stunt.
With
grace
and
hard
work,
the
vision
is
clear,
Bringing
prosperity
year
after
year.
Verse 5
So
beat
the
drums
loud
and
raise
up
the
flag,
Zambia's
pride
is
a
prize
none
can
drag.
Congratulations,
Mr.
President,
true
and
tried,
With
the
power
of
peace
and
the
nation
beside.
The
journey
continues,
the
future
is
won,
Under
the
warmth
of
our
Zambian
sun!
