Come ethiopians come, run come,
(I say) We have a messege for you (R)
Zion gates are open wide (R2)
Come ethiopians come.
When your walking,
when your talking remember Fari,
Rastafari is waching you wherever you go.
(2)
Dear Lord you know,
I have no friend like thee,
For if Zion is not my home,
Dear Lord what could I do,
Seh, for the angel beckon me,
From Zion open door,
And I can´t feel at home
In this world anymore.
(3)
Fire!, Fire!, Fire!, Fire fall pon them,
(Fari seh) Fire!, Fire!, Fire!, Fire fall pon them,
On the day of Pentecost, fire fall pon them. (R)
(4)
How great is our god,
How graet is his name,
He´s the greatest one,
For ever the same.
He drove back the water
of the maghty red sea,
He say I´ll lead you,
Wont´t you trust in me?
(5)
I have a mansion, just over the hilltop,
In that bright land (R)
Seh We never grow old (R)
And some day yonder,
I´ll never more wonder,
But walk the street of shining gold,
Shining gold.
(6)
Leave Babylon, Ethiopirians,
Leave babylon,
Leave Babylon and come, run come (Fari seh)
Don´t mind your friends,
For they will laugh you to scorn,
When Christ was here before
They have done him the very same,
Look in ya life, Ethiopians,
See how you live, (Fari seh)
Leave Babylon and come.
(7)
Love is the key, the golden key,
The key to open Zion door,
Mount Zion door,
And whosoever enters in,
Ever living life shall have.
(8)
Negus, He is a way maker, (R2)
One day Jah made the way in glory,
When I was lost in sin,
Negus came and took us in,
One day Jah made a wy for us.

Over Hills and vallys (Fari seh),
Over rocks and mountains (Fari seh),
Over hills and valleys (InI),
Chanting to King Rastafari, (Fari seh)
Rise and shine, (Black ethiopians)
Rise and shine, (Higher adonia seh)
Rise and shine, (Black ethiopians)
Rise and shine.

Sailing on, Bobo life boat (R)
For with Christ in the vessel,
We will smile at the storm,
For the life boat sailing on.
(11)
Rocka My Soul in the bosom of Abraham (R2)
Oh! Rocka my soul! (Adonai I say)
Jah´s so high that you can´t get over HIM,
Jah´s so low that you can´t get under HIM
Jah´s so wide that you can´t get around HIM,
Oh ! Roka my soul
(12)
Tell me who,
Who make the angels sing,
Tell me who,
Who make the joy bells ring,
Tell me who,
Who is the Kings of Kings,
No one but Fari.
Yes, he made the sky,
made the sea and land,
Fastened it togher with his maighty hand,
Under his command the King Controls,
No one like Fari.
(13)
We are going home (R5)
We are going home for ever,
If you tarry till you better,
You will never come at all (R2)
We are going home for ever.
(14)
When we reach Mount Zion,
We will hould hand together
and walk all over mount Zion,
Holy Mount Zion. (R)
