An incredibly heartwarming video captured a powerful moment of national pride from a little boy, just minutes before a rugby match.
The cute clip, shared on TikTok by @jayn_eee, was met with immense praise and emotion from social media users.
The clip started at the very beginning of the anthem, capturing the boy's full performance while standing between his dad's legs. The toddler, who is not a native speaker of some of the languages in the anthem, managed to perfectly ace both the Zulu and Sotho parts.

When it came to the Afrikaans part, 'Uit die blom,' he struggled a bit, but he quickly regained his rhythm and finished the song flawlessly, together with the lead singer and the Boks players. The boy's raw emotion was evident in his performance; he closed his eyes and used various facial gestures, clearly feeling the anthem as he sang along.
