We looked up as blades of orange
cut through the dull grey sky
Though the day had not even begun
this would be our only view of the sun
So we went down into coal black darkness
like we had done a thousand times before
and descended deep down and hacked away
at the inside of the earth once more
But in the deepest black of darkness
we hit upon trunks all filled with gold
that shone like the rays of the morning sun
Could it be our day had finally come?
Alas, we were no more than fools
tricked by a worthless glow
and so, the most fabulous of riches
slipped right through our fingers
But as they wiped off the dust of millions of years
and discovered the wildest of creatures
the roar of those magnificent beasts
rang forever in our miserable ears

Original (Amharic)
ከራብ ከድህነት መታገል ሳያንሰን
አይበጀን ያልነው ውስጥ ገባን ተመልሰን
በዳይ ተበዳዩም ይቅርታን እምቢ ያለ
አስታራቂም ሸሸ እየተማረረ
ሆድ ነው የሰው እዳው
እምነት የሚያስከዳው
የሚባለው ድሮ - - - አሄ
መች ቀረ ዘንድሮስ
ተረት ብቻ አይደለም
ሲሆን እያየነው
በቃሉ የሚኖር
ጠፍቶዋል
ሆዱ እያታለለው
ቅዱሱን ቃሉን ሰባኪው
ትልቅ ሰው ያልነው አዋቂ
መሪ ያልነው ዘውድ ያስጨበጥነው
ለስልጣን መግደል ሲቀለው
እያየነው
አወዬው ምነው የኛስ ነገር
ጉድ ብቻ ሆኖ እንዲያው ሲቀር
ሆድ ባሰኝ አኔስ በማየው ሁሉ
መላ ቢስ ሆኖ ሲቀር ነገሩ
ሆድ ነው የሰው እዳው
እምነት የሚያስከዳው
የሚባለው ድሮ - - - አሄ
መች ቀረ ዘንድሮ
Translation (English)
With poverty and famine to our name
The new road took us the way we came
With no sides willing to take the blame
And nobody willing to kill the flame
Greed is the downfall of man
Sell his morals if he can
They used to say
It still applies today
We see it everyday
It's not just a story
No matter what he says
Greed is his only worry
The holy men on the hill
And the kings we appointed
find it easier to kill
Than to be defeated
With poverty and famine to our name
The new road took us the way we came
With no sides willing to take the blame
And nobody willing to kill the flame
I don't know what hope we have any longer
Stories are the only thing keeping us together
I'm sick and tired of this endless fight
When there's no solution to all this in sight
Greed is the downfall of man
Sell his morals if he can
They used to say
It still applies today
