As a South African I am happy to see other countries and nationalities respecting and loving our songs

Number of colleges in New Zealand sing this song as a mark of respect and love to our South African Brothers and sisters.

We live in Johannesburg and this is the best rendition we have heard since leaving in 1986

Im not even South African but i cried so heard so hard over this. I feel African now.

As a South African myself i say thank you for presenting the song as it should with the passion and soul of Africa

Sports can carry us through. Nothing unites like sports. Awake Madiba awake! 🔥🇳🇿🇿🇦

@@samleboeuf6993 no one expected South Africa to be even where it is today. In 1986, almost everyone was quite despondent. Where there is hope, shoots of optimism can grown. But I suspect this is all wasted on you.

Many years ago I lived in Botswana. This song then and now brings a tringle to my spine. I may not be able to spell it but NKOSI SEKILI AFRICA

ES IST in meinen Augen die beste Version auf KZread I LOVE IT WEITER SO

From wikipedia accessed 3/08/19 According to cultural researchers Booth and Nauright, Zulu workers later took up the song to generate rhythm during group tasks and to alleviate boredom and stress.[2] The song was sung by working miners in time with the rhythm of swinging their axes to dig. It was usually sung under hardship in call and response style (one man singing a solo line and the rest of the group responding by copying him).[1] It was also sung by prisoners in call and response style using alto and soprano parts divided by row. The late former South African President Nelson Mandela described how he sang Shosholoza as he worked during his imprisonment on Robben Island. He described it as "a song that compares the apartheid struggle to the motion of an oncoming train" and went on to explain that "the singing made the work lighter".[3] The song was usually sung to express the hardship of working in the mines. It expresses heartache over the hard work performed in the mines. The word Shosholoza or "tshotsholoza!" means go forward or make way for the next man, in Ndebele.[5] It is used as a term of encouragement and hope for the workers as a sign of solidarity The sound "sho sho" uses onomatopoeia and reminiscent of the sound made by the steam train (stimela).[1] Stimela is an Nguni word for steam train. "Kulezo ntaba!" means (At those far away mountains), "Stimela Siphume eZimbabwe" (the train come from Zimbabwe), "Wen' uya baleka" (Because you're running away/hurrying).[1] In contemporary times, its meaning is to show support for any struggle.[6] before I used wikipedia I struggled towards that meaning as shown below original version of this OP Can anyone telll me if I'm on or off target here poetic interpretation overall it might resemble "we shall overcome" I like to think of it as Nelson Mandela described it as a working song for hard labor prisoners, a song of quiet, confident faith that this injustice will not stand because the revolution, though distant moves strongly to our aid, like an old steam train going up a hard gradient, working hard, doing maybe 10-15mph, but powerful, unstoppable chuff chuff, chufff chuff /chuff chuff, chufff chuff /chuff chuff, chufff chuff /chuff chuff, chufff chuff feel that rhythm, become like the steam train in your struggle, coming to the aid of the people, how will injustce persist if we all have a steam train's endurance, persistence, calm fortitude. How can apartheid stand against a quiet tide of human steam trains? It can't, so by emulating the steam train we bring the revolution. By singing the song, we become iron, steel, fire, steam. By singing the song, we become the *change we advocate. All over the world, together. That at least is the possibiliy. Though we are often let down and often disappoint ourselves, still, somehow, we keep the hope alive.

Am singing this on my school

Where can i got this arrangement? Gooodjob btw👏🏻

Nora sent me here

I do this song at demos

Can you tell me where I can find the sheet music for this song and who arranged this version? Thank you!

The song is great but what happened with a background screaming women?

Can anybody help me to find the music sheets?

I 3 altos

Anthrm.of all oppressed people regardless of color, sex, gender, ability, economic/social "ability"

А вас не смущает, что почти гимн чёрного континента исполняют белые колонизаторы? Это как бы ок?

Can the title say Ndebele song from Zimbabwe and South Africa. No offense kodwa Africa is Huge. It's more respectful to say where it is from. It matters a lot kithi. Great job tho bantu.

Hmm... not sure about the dashikis. I think that’s a bridge too far.

so many beautiful girls... in my choir the average is probably around 3,4/10

This is dress his in the tanudlz.

Why ask?

Ngifisa wena bantu bonke okuhle, futhi ufuna ukuzwa okuningi kusuka kuwe! And yes - I am white, Afrikaans speaking....
