Ayy! Ba teacher!
Natotela for the lessons learned
Every grade that we have earned
Mayo! The sacrifice you make
For our children's sake
Ba teacher bantu, you are heroes
Teaching ifwe from ground to zero
Chalkboard warriors every day
Shaping Zambia's better way
Ba teacher bantu, we salute you
Nothing we achieve without you
From the copper belt to V-Falls pride
Ba teacher always by our side
Classrooms full but pay so small
Still you answer to the call
Bemba, Nyanja, English too
Knowledge flowing straight from you
Mukwai, the work you do
Makes our nation strong and true
Yoh! We see you standing tall
Giving everything, your all
Ba teacher bantu, you are heroes
Teaching ifwe from ground to zero
Chalkboard warriors every day
Shaping Zambia's better way
Ba teacher bantu, we salute you
Nothing we achieve without you
From the copper belt to V-Falls pride
Ba teacher always by our side
Natotela ba teacher!
Mwaiseni!
Zambia rising!
