- Blessed be this noble land,
- Gift to us from God's strong hand,
- Heritage our fathers left to us.
- May it always be at peace.
- Chorus:
- Awake, awake, O men, awake!
- And women close beside them stand,
- Together we'll work and serve
- This land, this happy land!
- Word of beauty and of fame,
- The name Botswana to us came.
- Through our unity and harmony,
- We'll remain at peace as one.
