Текст песни: Black Dignity + перевод

Lagidamawi rasfetari, medhani alem

Tenayistilgn, Igziabhier amlak

Qedamawi tekoro, medhani alem

Negus nagast, izi Itiopia

Lift up thine head, o ye black dignity

And be ye lifted up, ye ever-loving black dignity

And let the King of kings enter thine heart

For in a little while and the wicked shall not be

They shall be cut off like the grass

And wither like the green herb

So trust in the Lord and do good

And wait patiently for Him

And verily thou shalt prevail, Selah

I branches shall not wither

And whatsoever I do shall prosper

I shall be like a tree, planted by the rivers

That bringeth forth fruit in season, Selah

So lift up thine head, o ye black people

And be ye lifted up, ye ever-loving black people

And the King of kings shall come in, Selah

Wake up thine slumbering mentality

Come closer to reality

Recognize thy dignity, thy integrity, thy quality

Fret not because of one who prospereth in his way

For in a little while

The evil-doers shall be killed crum paralyzed

Love Him and live, hate Him and die

Lift up thine head, ye ever-loving black people

And be ye lifted up, ye ever-living black people

And the Lord, God shall come into thine heart

Seek Him and ye shall find Him 'cause He can be found

Wake up thine slumbering mentality and live up to reality

Live black, love black, think black

Our God is black

Qedamawi ras fetari, medhani alem

Igziabhier amlak, tenayistilgn

Tokoro chilola, neguse nagast, Itiopia
