On Independence Day
We are all from Botswana today
And we all stand so tall
And so proud celebrating
Our special day and we'll
Remember our loved
Ones who have sadly
Passed away fighting for
Our Independence and there
Inside our hearts every day
We'll never forget them and
United we stand our voices clear
And strong and proud we
Are all from Botswana

And the fireworks are lighting
Up the sky tonight
And we will all rejoice
In unity and we stand tall and proud
And we will sing the
Anthem of our nation
For justice and equality

And our little children will wave
The Botswana flags high in the air
And we all feel a sense of pride and joy
For the freedom we all get to share

And a new generation has begun and
Together we embrace each other with a
Smile on our faces and holding
Each other in our warm brotherly embrace
United as one loving country Botswana
For our nation's future is bright and clear
And Botswana is peaceful and beautiful

So on this day of freedom
As we stand together without fear

And our country Botswana we hold
Deep inside our hearts
And we'll sing and dance
Having some romance
And we'll stop and pray for
Everyone on our special day so
God bless you all and
Happy independence day to
Everyone who's from our beloved
Botswana today.
