Edmore Kudakwashe Chaipa

We thank you every day the Almighty,

We thank you for blessing your Comrades,

We thank you for the fauna and flora,

We thank you for the plateau between the Zambezi and Limpopo.

The land that has invited cunning forces,

Coming all the way from beyond,

We thank you for all the riches, culture and personality.

All enshrined in the womb of our Motherland,

We thank you for giving us time to honour our heroes,

Our Independence and own Sons and daughters

of Zimbabwe.

Their sacrifices remained a Midas touch.

Great salutation gallant fighters,

You fought for your land,

Your fight was for our well being,

Your choice was above special,

You left us with endless tears,

But your blood wiped them dry,

Today liberation is a song, a song for many.

With neo-colonialism a satanic hymn,

Sons and daughters of Zimbabwe,

We salute you.

That land is in the hands of many black Zimbabweans,

It should be given financial and technical support,

To fulfil the desire of your spirits;

The spirits of Nehanda Nyakasikana and Sekuru Kaguvi,

To embrace total empowerment,

Our Independence, our sovereignty,

Land, land, land is our national heritage.

Our land means our sovereignty,

Our resources means our integrity,

A great honour to our People,

Oh Fighters of our Independence!!!

We salute you.
