Erika House Song

Mo pelong ra ikgantša Ka legae le la rona

Re thabetse hoba mona legono Ma basadi ba golang,

ka lerato le bophelo Le di thuto tša bona di e pontšang

In this place we found a home,for our hopes and expectations.
Here we live and learn to rise above the world.
With a brilliance that will burn, even after we grow older -
It is here our hearts forever will return!

CHOIR

Dan se ons Erika, ons bly altyd aan jou getrou
Jy is ons trots, ons vreug, ons sal jou onthou
En as ons dan eendag, terugdink aan studente tyd
Dan klink daar altyd in ons hart ‘n lied vir jou. ERIKA

Full English Translation:

In our hearts burns the pride/

For our home on campus/

It’s an honour for us to be here today!/

Here where girls can dream together/

About life and love,/

High marks rewarding their hard work/

In this place we found a home, / For our hopes and expectations/

Here we live and learn to rise above the world/

With a brilliance that will burn,/

Even after we grow older,/

It is here our hearts forever will return !

Then we say: Erika / We will always be loyal to you./

You are our pride, our joy/

We will remember you./

And when we one day/

Reminisce about our student days/

There will forever remain a song in our hearts/For you ERIKA
