  SADC, SADC dawn of our certainty
  SADC, SADC dawn of a better future
  And hope for regional and universal integration
  Towards our peoples unity and harmony

  Cradle of our ancestors
  Let us praise with joy, the realization of our hopes
  And raise the banner of solidarity
  SADC, SADC SADC, SADC dawn of our certainty
