"'''Stand and Sing of Zambia, Proud and Free'''" is the national anthem of [[Zambia]]. The tune is taken from the hymn ''Nkosi Sikelel' iAfrika'' (God Bless Africa), which was composed by a South African, Enoch Sontonga, in 1897. The lyrics were composed after Zambian independence to specifically reflect Zambia, as opposed to Sontonga's lyrics which refer to Africa as a whole. | "'''Stand and Sing of Zambia, Proud and Free'''" is the national anthem of [[Zambia]].
