Lesōthō fatše la bontat'a rōna;

Ha ra mafatše le letle ke lona;

Ke moo re hlahileng,

ke moo re hōlileng,

Rea le rata,

Mōlimō ak'u bōlōke Lesōthō;

U felise lintoa le matšoenyeho;

Oho fatše lena;

La bontata rōna;

Le be le khotso.

Lesotho, land of our Fathers,

Among the lands it is the most beautiful.

It is where we were born,

It is where we grew up--

We love it.

God, please protect Lesotho.

Spare it conflict, and tribulation--

Oh, this land,

Land of our Fathers,

May it have peace.

Peace.

Rain.

Prosperity.
