Whoa oh oh oh aye

I and I so strong

I ah Ethiopian, Ethiopian

This comin' from ah distance


CHORUS

Take these words of divine

to the princess right away

Tell her to be fine

I don't want her to stray

Words of divine,

to the empress right away

Tell her to be mine

I don't want her to stray


Knowin your portion, who knows your motion

Joyful will I be in your eyes

Put-a put away pollution, sabbatical strong

Royalty belongs to my side,

let us care for the younger ones

the children our tongue

Nature grows and prove you're qualified

to know and overstand no segregation

That is not the works of the wise


CHORUS

Words of divine

to the princess right away

Tell her to be fine

Never go astray

Words of divine,

to all the woman right away

Put Selassie pun uno mind

Never go astray


Hey

Confuse not your heart with the termoils in live

Oh oh, Oh woman of the isles in strife,

that's what I behold in my sight

You no fi stop hail King Selassie I

Oh what family you fright 

Bless her down with faith, take this to her gate,

with love before the falling of the night


CHORUS

These words of divine

to the empress right away

Tell her to be fine

And never go astray

Words of divine,

to my princess right away

Tell her to be fine

I'll be there on the day, hey hey


I see round and about,

I hear the sounds from the mouth

Defiling all the stock upon the shelf

I've been the least, yet me trod fi east

I can only give approve of myself

Me me me see say nuff woman weak

mankind uno no see it

No hurt, if yuh come here come help

The whole of uno come from the heap

rise with the wheat

The ___ of the blackman wealth


CHORUS

Take these words of divine

to the empress right away

Tell her to be fine

I don't want her to stray

Words of divine,

to the woman right away

Tell her to be mine

Never go astray


Knowin your motion, I knows your portion

Joyful will you be in my eyes

Put-a put away pollution, sabbatical strong

Royalty belongs to her side,

let us care for the younger ones

the children our tongue

Nature grows and prove you're qualified

to know yet overstand no segregation

That is not the work of the wise


CHORUS

Words of divine

to the empress right away

to all the woman them right away

Put Selassie pun your mind...
