African Violet

AFRICAN VIOLET

OH LAND OF AETHIOPIA
OH LAND OF ABYSSINIA
OH LAND OF SHEBA
OH LAND OF ABESHA 
Honor thy glory,thou hast braved servants.
Grace hath thy patriot,ye pride oh thee
Glory ye excellence,prime mover oh thee.
Let thee alma mater flourish
Thou hast union,not diminish.
Hoy!  One Country
Equipped with love and bravery.
Shine as one,thy works of ye weaver
Light up freedom,always and forever.
Let ye glory conquer and gleam thy illusion
Exalt thy Aethiops liberty,save us from confusion.
       Hoy!   Thy kingdom
       Hoy!   Thy Queendom
       Hoy!   Thy Cradle
Thy freedom within martyrdom
Thy glory within liondom.
Laureate liberty,laureate light
Thou shalt be ye merit ,insight within insight.
Freedom Alpha liberty Omega
Liberty Alpha freedom Omega
Love Alpha, love Omega.
Liberty in freedom,freedom in liberty
Unity in alma,mater in unity.
YE MILLENIUM ALMA!
YE MILLENIUM MATER!
YE MILLENIUM ALMA!
YE MILLENIUM MATER!
YE MILLENIUM AFRICA!

Lambs of Freedom

Lambs of Freedom

Love, faith and unity
Ye three millenia,
Green, yellow and red
Coronate Aethiopia.
Gamma colors ye freedom
Thou hast burning candles,
Memory of the lambs
Thou hath ye cradles.
Green, yellow and red
Tricolors ye freedom,
Green, yellow and red
Ye honors thy honordom.
Let them reveal ye happiness
Glory be thy holiness.
Aethiopia Hoy!, Blessed and free
Freedom ye mater dolorosa.

Exodus Africa

The wave of poverty
  The wave of ye illness,
  Them try to stop thyself
  To limit your highness.
  QUEEN  AFRICA!
  Queen of Selassie
  Womb of Mandela.	
  Throw your core anchor,
  Bring thyself,ye hefty vigor.
  Poverty trying to make you sail backward,
  To retard your growth
  Make your children awkward.
  Wave of death trying
  To steal your blessing,
  O AFRICA!, throw your core anchor
  And stop that aggressing.
  EXODUS AFRICA!
  Ye children unite to make you so strong
  Ye children unite to make you proud,
  Them sing ye liberty,very loud and aloud.

Millenium Grand Millenium

MILLENIUM  GRAND  MILLENIUM
                                            
Alpha hast thy beginning
Thou end hath omega
O lambs of freedom
Praise thy millennium.
Aethiopia Hoy!, Ye honeymoon
God’s blessings and promise.
Non-life hast thy power
To change thy course of love.
Nonself hast thy strength
To change thy stream of life.
Millenium Aethiopia!
Millenium Africa!
Millenium Grand Millenium!

Adei Aethiopia

Adei Aethiopia

O thy glory,tell to the highest
Thou hast secrets of thee testament
Glory glory to the highest
Thou hast blessings and yellow harvest.
Once in the yellow moon

Yellow carpets rise, Maskal birds singing.
Glory to thee yellow carpet
Yellow flowers hath yellow planet.
Praise thy yellowness,sing along glory
Bless thy yellow sun Merry! Merry! Merry!
Aethiopia O Adei
Adei O Aethiopia
Millenium Africa!!
