Lyrics

Mazgu gha ChiTumbuka[7][8] Mazgu gha ChiNgerezi[9][10][11]

I
Chiuta mtumbike Malaŵi,
Mumupe mtende.
Thereskani ŵalwani wose,
Njara, nthenda sanje,
Gumanyani mitima yithu,
Khumbi tiŵavyeso.
Mtumbike Mrongozgi na tose,
Na mama Malaŵi.

II
Malaŵi ni caru cakutowa comene.
Kuŵa wakufwatuka,
Nyanja na mphepo za mu mapiri,
Nakuti ndimo viliri nadi.
Viliŵa, mapiri, malo, vinthu,
Ni vyawanangwa.
Nkhorongo, malo ghawemi ghakuliskako viŵeto.
Malawi ni malo ghawemi comene.

III
O wanangwa tiye tiwunganenge,
Kukwezga Malaŵi.
Mwa kutemwa, kulimbikira, kupulikira,
Muteŵeterani.
Mu nyengo ya nkhondo na mtende wuwo,
Pali cilato cimoza.
Amama, adada, tiyeni tijipeleke,
Kuwuska Malaŵi.

I
O God bless our land of Malawi,
Keep it a land of peace.
Put down each and every enemy,
Hunger, disease, envy.
Join together all our hearts as one,
That we be free from fear.
Bless our leader, each and every one,
And Mother Malawi.

II
Our own Malawi, this land so fair,
Fertile and brave and free.
With its lakes, refreshing mountain air,
How greatly blest are we.
Hills and valleys, soil so rich and rare
Give us a bounty free.
Wood and forest, plains so broad and fair,
All - beauteous Malawi.

III
Freedom ever, let us all unite
To build up Malawi.
With our love, our zeal and loyalty,
Bringing our best to her.
In time of war, or in time of peace,
One purpose and one goal.
Men and women serving selflessly
In building Malawi.
