Hail Selassie - Sizzla Kalonji

Congo just hear da tune

Rise inna the palace

Inna Ethiopia you there, you know

Well I say woe onto those

Who are wise in there own eyes

And yet they prudent in them own sight

Remember say you got

Wolf there inna sheep clothes

Yet things will be alright, oh culture

Living in Rome my people how safe you are

Away from your home I say you’re oh so far

He has been crowned for fighting so many wars

Black belongs to the throne Melchizedek read the stars

Red gold and green honors the earth, fill my heart with joy

You unfold, prince and princess makes your convoy

The land of love filled with righteousness for I and I

Keep I safe in your arms Emperor Selassie I

Hail King Selassie, Ethiopia’s own devine majesty

Emanuel, holy, holy

Take us home Marcus Garvey

First ancient King of creation

From the western hemisphere askin for repatriation

Cunning words no source of inspiration

Causing hurt devising trap on the nation

In there own self will they kill to make it high

Open your eyes, yo

Hail King Selassie, Ethiopia’s own devine majesty

Fruitful bowl Empress?

Let them know we must go to mount Zion, and ah full time

Babylon set the captives free, do you tell Emanuel have the key

So long and so many years you inna Babylon and cry wasted tears

Hail King Selassie, Ethiopia’s own devine majesty
