Saddex buu ka yahay qaadaddii aradka Soomaale
Surwaalkii ma dhigin iyo dharkii sawjarnimadiiye
Sar intuu abuurtay uma bixin soohdin laydh badane
Socdaal uguma kicin Yurub intuu saydhey maal badane
Suhuun kuma leh baanka iyo shirkado soorta iibsade e
Sokeeyaan lahaa iyo ma odhan seeddiyay xiga e
Saqda dhexe intuu liida tegey looma sacabbeyne
Sidii uu dad kale yeeli jiray wuu ka saahidaye
Soo jeed habeen iyo feker baa solay naftiisiiye
Sabab iyo taqadum lagu gaadho buu ku hurdo seegaaye
Sidaasay dadweynuhuna kalsoonida dhab ugu siiyeene
Saciim buu Afriiqiya u yahay saadiq aaminahe
Sida qamarka oogada socda bay sare u eegaane
Sawdkuu la yeedhiyo codkaa loo sid tiriyaaye
Seeftii nasriga iyo wuxu sitaa suuratul ikhlaase
Sagal hooray buu noo yahay iyo seermaweydada e
Sidii lagu tilmaamaba runtii uga sinaad roone
Sidaasay dadweynuhuna kalsoonida dhab ugu siiyeene
Translation:
He is the supreme leader of the Somalis
He continues to wear his battle dress
He does not build breezy mansions for himself
He doesn't go gallivanting to Europe and luxurious locales
He doesn't own wealth in banks and big Corporations
He doesn't practice nepotism nor promote his in-laws
He doesn't go debauching at the beachside bars late at night
He's is not the way of his corrupt and depraved predecessors
A wakeful vigil and worry has exhausted and depleted him
For the cause of Somali progress he loses sleep
And that is the reason he retains the confidence of his people
Most magisterial of all Africans, he is a generous and trusted leader
All Africa looks up to him like the moon in the night-sky
As they hold fast to his every word and pronouncement
He wields an evenging sword and Allah's Words.
To us, he is like a cooling breeze and refreshing rains
Words fail to describe the glory of our leader
And that is the reason he retains the confidence of his people
