Original text (Somali)

Hinjinne u sara kaca
Calankaan harraad iyo
Haydaar u mudateen.

Hir cagaarku qariyayiyo
Habkay samadu tahayoo
Xiddig dhi igleh hoorshoo
Caddaan lagu hadheeyaay.

Maxaa haybad kugu yaal!

translation

Stand up with power, because we have hoisted our flag,
the flag
that has cost us a lot in thirst and pain.

Our flag, whose flags are the eternal green of the earth,
the blue of the sky, the white, the color of peace
and in the middle the red star of blood.

Oh our flag, what a glorious sight!
