Her Nemesis destroyed while wailing, her sacrifices vindicated by freedom. 𝄇

Forever firm in her principles, her name became a synonym of tenacity, Eritrea, the pride of the oppressed, is a testament that truth prevails.

Eritrea, Eritrea, has taken her rightful place in the world.

[So that] The supreme dedication that brought us freedom, will serve to rebuild her and develop her, We shall honor her with progress, It is our legacy to crown her.

𝄆 Eritrea, Eritrea, has taken her rightful place in the world. 𝄇</poem>

A festival of her shed blood, We devote our lives to her, her children. 𝄇

To avoid becoming a foreign exploit The future of her destiny will not wither. The people's will of centuries Tomorrow tastes its liberty.

Eritrea, Eritrea, In the world, her due glory will be given to her (all written in the future)

Amen, we did not bow down Thus we did not bring her to an end. For her majestic splendour to prosper, We are now entrusted to decorate the treasure.

𝄆 Eritrea, Eritrea, In the world, her due glory will be given to her. 𝄇</poem>
