Unofficial English translation

Raise (Grow)

The blood of my people The resources of my land The sweat of my ancestors The wealth of my new generation The power of my sight The power of my hearing The history of our tradition The energy of my soul The might of our youth The heritage of our orphanage Your various colors translate One is pure blood The sacrifice of patriotism One is pure blue From our Somali side One is pure green For our land's prosperity You are born by the power of God You stand in his grace You will stay in his grace He shall forever reign! Amen! Amen! He shall never fall! Amen! Amen! The pillar of Islam Completed with the holy Quran The records of history The struggle passed from generation to generation The unfinished defense The power of the hero The way of independence The wealth of my life The eyes of our memories The healer of our wounds Your various colors translate One is pure blood The sacrifice of patriotism One is pure blue From our Somali side One is pure green For our land's prosperity You are born by the power of God You stand in his grace You will stay in his grace He shall forever reign! Amen! Amen! He shall never fall! Amen! Amen! A piece of my liver The guardian of my lungs A part of my heart My hands and my movement My back and my chest The renewer of my intellect My circulation system My entire body My diagnosing doctor Who healed my illness Your various colors translate One is pure blood The sacrifice of patriotism One is pure blue From our Somali side One is pure green For our land's prosperity You are born by the power of God You stand in his grace You will stay in his grace He shall forever reign! Amen! Amen! He shall never fall! Amen! Amen!
