Leenca Ijja Barbadaa

A
Alamudin Mamad
male vocals Majestic Ethio-orchestral groove with male vocals mid-tempo. Krar masenqo and washint weave around a deep steady rhythm; bass and kick lock in for a proud march. Verses start almost spoken close to the mic; chorus blooms with gang vocals ululations and wide harmonies. Subtle strings and organ lift the back half ending on a strong held unison note.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Faariis faarisoo
Ummama xiyyeete
Goota gootee
Ija barbadaa

Nuuf jiraadhu
Si jaallan hundinu
Biyyasaatiif jiraatte
Kan biyyasaatiif isaatiif du’u

[Chorus]
Leenca ijja barbadaa
Siin waamna
Siin yaamna
Faarsii imaama goota koo
Waggaa kuma nuu jiraa

Leenca ijja barbadaa
Siin dhaabbanna
Hin jilbeenfannu
Faarsii imaama goota koo
Waggaa kuma ifa nu ta’i

[Verse 2]
ፋርስ የፋርስን አይን ይዞ
ጀግና እንድትፈጥር ያለመህ
ለእኛ ኑር ጓዶች ነህ
ለሀገሩ የኖረ አንበሳ

ያለቀሰ የባርቤዶሽ ስደት
በልብ ታሪክ ተቀመጠ
ኢማም የኔ ጀግና
ሺህ አመት ኑር ተባርከ

[Chorus]
Leenca ijja barbadaa
Siin waamna
Siin yaamna
Faarsii imaama goota koo
Waggaa kuma nuu jiraa

Leenca ijja barbadaa
Siin dhaabbanna
Hin jilbeenfannu
Faarsii imaama goota koo
Waggaa kuma ifa nu ta’i
