    Hosi Katekisa Afrika (Nkosi Sikelel’ iAfrika) was sung and translated into Xitsonga in 1899 by Reverend Mboweni.

    The following lyrics are in a Xitsonga dialect known as Xirhonga (Eastern);

    HOSI KATEKISA AFRIKA

    Tana moya,

    Tana moya tana, tana moya

    Tana moya tana, tana moya

    Tana moya wa ku xwenga

    Hosi katekisa, hine vana vaku.

     

    Hosi katekisa Afrika

    A dri drumisiwe vitu draku

    Yingela minkhongoto yeru

    Hosi katekisa, hine vana vaku.

     

    Tana moya,

    Tana moya tana, tana moya

    Tana moya tana, tana moya

    Tana moya wa ku xwenga

    Hosi katekisa, hine vana vaku.
