The Universal Ethiopian Anthem (Poem by Burrel and Ford)

I Ethiopia, thou land of our fathers, Thou land where the gods loved to be, As storm cloud at night suddenly gathers Our armies come rushing to thee. We must in the fight be victorious When swords are thrust outward to gleam; For us will the vict'ry be glorious When led by the Red, Black and Green.
​​​​​​​​​​CHORUS -- Advance, advance to victory, Let Africa be free; Advance to meet the foe With the might Of the Red, the Black and the Green.

II Ethiopia, the tyrant's falling, Who smote thee upon thy knees, And thy children are lustily calling From over the distant seas. Jehovah, the Great One has heard us, Has noted our sighs and our tears, With His spirit of Love he has stirred us To be One through the coming years.
CHORUS -- Advance, advance, etc.

III O Jehovah, thou God of the ages Grant unto our sons that lead The wisdom Thou gave to Thy sages When Israel was sore in need. Thy voice thro' the dim past has spoken, Ethiopia shall stretch forth her hand, By Thee shall all fetters be broken, And Heav'n bless our dear fatherland.
CHORUS -- Advance, advance, etc.
