Imagine if every child born today, tomorrow and the next day and the next....
had enough love, enough food,
enough safety and brain power.

Ngokubambisana, sizoshintsha ikusasa lethu

Sikunye, siza kulitshintsha ikamva lethu

Saam sal ons ons toekoms verander

Together, we will change our future

Re ka fetola bokamoso ba rona hammoho

Mmogo, re tla fetoša bokamoso bja rena

mmogo, re tla fetola isago ya rona

Hi ri swin’we, hi ta cinca vumundzuku bya hina

Sibambene, sitawugucula
likusasa letfu

Nga u farisana, ri ḓo shandukisa
vhumatshelo hashu

Namhlanjesi, sizakutjhugulula
ikusasa lethu
