Oh Students of Mazowe,

Come and join this hymn of praise,

Now raise your voices in joyful songs,

For the blessings of this day,

Let us carry the flame of liberty,

To light the darkened way,

With patience and with dignity,

Let us lead to a better day.

Mazowe, Mazowe,

We will hold your banner high

As we live to honour your memory

May your glory never die."
