Tanzanian National Anthem - Wimbo wa Taifa Afrika

Verse 1. Mungu ibariki Afrika.
              Wabariki viongozi wake.
              Hekima, umoja, na amani
              Hizi ni ngao zetu,
              Afrika na watu wake.

              Ibariki A-frika
              Ibariki A-frika
              Tubariki watoto wa Afrika.

Verse 2. Mungu ibariki Tanzania.
              Dumisha, uhuru, na umoja,
              Wake kwa waume na watoto.
              Mungu ibariki,
              Tanzania na watu wake.

              Ibariki Tanzania
              Ibariki Tanzania
              Tubariki watoto wa Afrika.


Note:  Today is our last day in Africa for this year.  We don't know the future, but we told our new African friends that if God wills, we will meet again.  It has been a great experience, far surpassing anything we had expected.  On our last Sunday in Tanzania at St. Nicholas Cathedral in Mwanza, our family got up front and sang the Tanzanian National Anthem.  Everyone stood up and joined us in this song.  We place the African church in God's hands.  The chorus says "God bless Africa, Africa and her people. God bless Tanzania, Tanzania and her people."
