[Verse 1]
In Cardiff’s chill, the crowd held its breath,
Golden hopes and green hearts met the test.
Cobus strode out, fifty caps on his back —
Solo footsteps echoed faith, no turning back.
Then one by one, in green and gold they came,
Our heroes walking in, ready for the game.
We didn’t know what end would meet the start,
But every fan was holding fast, heart to heart.
[Chorus]
Springboks, oh Springboks, we raised our voice aloud,
Proud in green and gold — strong, unbowed.
All 80 minutes, we felt your fire and soul,
Springboks, we love you — you bore our hopes and goals.
[Verse 2]
Through every tackle, every surge, every line,
You showed the world — resolve by design.
On foreign ground, with flags of Cape Town skies,
You carried dreams and tears in every try.
The whistle blew — but win or lose we stand,
Together with you, united in this land.
For every moment under Cardiff’s grey,
Your hearts were ours — come the dawn of day.
[Chorus]
Springboks, oh Springboks, we raised our voice aloud,
Proud in green and gold — standing proud.
All 80 minutes, you showed your power and might,
Springboks, we love you — for glory or the fight.
[Bridge]

Across the seas, from Cape Town’s golden light,
To Cardiff’s roar, you carried fierce and bright.
Through sweat and shards of thunder on that ground,
You stood as one — our heroes, safe and sound.
[Chorus
Springboks, oh Springboks, you made our hearts swell loud,
Green and gold forever — heads held proud.
Eighty minutes of spirit, grit, and soul,
Springboks, we love you — you made us whole.
[Outro]
Springboks, oh Springboks, our banners fly so high,
Under stormy Cardiff skies, we saw you aim the sky.
Win or lose, you carried us in every strive,
Nation proud, hearts loud — Springboks, you’re alive.
