At last, Eritrea is free
Oh, yes, Lord, Amen!
Freedom can be easy to gain
But hard to maintain
As our rightful Will
Let us be in a vigil
in this hostile world
Full of revenge and aggression
Akin to human ambition
To control a fellowman
Whom your beloved son
Once shed his precious blood.
How they dared thee, God
In the absence of thy wrath
moving to humiliate
Whom you created after your image
But without thy noble temper.
For man kills man
Not for his food
But for his pride!
What a fool!
What a wild!
So in the world gone mad
We lean to thee
Yes, to thee
Our God..........
