Sesotho lyrics	IPA transcription	English translation
I Lesotho fatše la bo-ntat'a rona; Har'a mafatše le letle ke lona; Ke moo re hlahileng, Ke moo re holileng, Rea le rata. II Molimo ak'u boloke Lesotho, U felise lintoa le matšoenyeho; Oho fatše lena; La bo-ntat'a rona; Le be le khotso.	1 [lɪ.sʊ.tʰʊ fɑ.t͡sʰɪ lɑ bɔn.tʼɑ.tʼɑ ʀʊ.nɑ] [hɑ.ʀɑ mɑ.fɑ.t͡sʰɪ lɛ lɪ.t͡ɬʼɛ kʼɪ lɔ.nɑ] [kʼɪ mɔ ʀɪ ɬɑ.ɦi.lɛŋ] [kʼɪ mɔ ʀɪ ɦʊ.di.lɛŋ] [ʀɪ.ɑ lɪ ʀɑ.tʼɑ] 2 [mʊ.di.mʊ ɑ.kʼɔ bʊ.lʊ.kʼɛ lɪ.sʊ.tʰʊ] [ʊ fɛ.di.sɛ din.tʼʊ̯ɑ lɪ mɑ.t͡sʰʊ̯ɛ.ɲɛ.ɦɔ] [ɔ.ɦɔ fɑ.t͡sʰɪ lɛ.nɑ] [lɑ bɔn.tʼɑ.tʼɑ ʀʊ.nɑ] [lɪ bɛ lɪ kʰɔ.t͡sʼɔ]	I Lesotho, land of our Fathers, Among the lands she is the most beautiful. She is where we were born, She is where we grew up, We love her. II God, please protect Lesotho. Spare it conflict and tribulation, Oh, this land, Land of our Fathers, May it have peace.
