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 forefathers; Among all others, most beautiful; It is where we were born, It is where we have grown, We love it dearly. II God, please preserve Lesotho, End all the conflicts and suffering; Oh, this very land; Of our forefathers; May it have peace.
