讓我們共同團結，一起慶祝

讓我們共同團結，一起慶祝（；、；；；；）是埃塞俄比亞詩人的詩，肯尼亞合唱作曲家Arthur Mudogo Kemoli後來為其編曲。其頌歌在1986年被非洲統一組織採用，在2002年被新成立的非洲聯盟採用。

 歷史 

The anthem was written as a poem titled "Proud to be African" by Ethiopian poet Tsegaye Gabre-Medhin. Kenyan choral composer Arthur Mudogo Kemoli composed the anthem's music in Dakar, Senegal in 1986, and it was selected as the anthem of the AU's predecessor, the Organisation of African Unity (OAU), as part of a contest. The same year, the OAU honoured Tsegaye with the OAU African Unity Anthem Prize for writing the anthem.

After the AU's formation in 2002, it organised a contest to establish official symbols of the Union, including a flag, emblem and anthem. The competition's brief for the anthem included that its short form for official ceremonies (first stanzas or two verses and chorus) should not exceed one minute in length and that each entry should include lyrics, sheet music, a good recording and an explanatory note and be submitted in one of the working languages of the AU. The brief stated that the symbols should draw inspiration from a number of values including struggle, independence, labour, unity, justice and hope. The competition was to last until 25 April 2003, and the three best entries were to be presented and the symbols chosen at a session of the AU Assembly in Maputo, Mozambique, in July 2003, with the first-, second- and third-place winners receiving US$7,000, US$5,000 and US$3,000 cash prizes, respectively.

The competition did not attract many participants, and eventually the competition was abandoned and symbols adopted and/or formalised irrespective of it, including the OAU anthem, which was retained as the anthem of the new AU.
