Samuel Daniel Shafiishuna Nujoma

the black struggle in Namibia,

a brave anti-colonial freedom fighter.

Who touched the hearts,

and minds of millions across Africa

 and the world with his powerful objectives.

Led his country into peace,

national reconciliation and economic rise.

Establishing harmony among the

conflicting religions and political elements.

His footprints are still blueprint for us to follow.

 

A legend, warrior and symbol of freedom,

cherished the ideal of a democratic

 and free society in which all persons live together

 in harmony and with equal opportunities.

He lived to give us

a better platform to speak

about our oppression

as well as our victories.

 

Who resistance against racism,

helped Namibians to realise their dream.

willing to fight against injustice

 and racism whereever he met it.

Refuse to bow to pressure to accept injustice

 to keep himself out of prison.

Put the cause of justice

 and freedom from oppression before his own safety.

 

His ability to put away revenge for the good of all people in Namibia,

We therefore build upon your legacy

 to bring about a new Namibian future.
