Eritrea: Welcome 2016 the Jubilee

Jubilating; ululating Elilye…Elilye…

With open hearts open arms

Running happy on the streets

Prancing-dancing on the streets

Jumping with joy banging Kebero-Drums

Sing for me

Play for me

Hop in joy for me

Celebrate me…

For I have walked a long journey

Hard arduous Journey

Price-full and prize-full Journey

Traveling distances

Facing many challenges

Facing death, sacrifices…

For, I am worth the sacrifices

Worthy of it all

For I am the light

The bright star and shining light

Your inner beauty and inner might

Your breath and future that is bright

I am Eritrea standing tall

Anchored in you my people

Seeded with my sacrifices

Fertilized in blood

So, say, Happy New Year

Happy 2016 for me Eritrea
