German translation
Ethiopia, be happy
thanks to God's power and your ruler.
Your brave citizens are united;
Your freedom will never be touched,
for your mountains are defiant
and your country children fear no enemies.
Long live our victorious ruler
To the glory of our land.
For your mountains are defiant
and your country children fear no enemies.
Long live our victorious ruler
To the glory of our land.
