Lyrics:

This song, my brock, come I-Jah, the Mabay
Unquench every fire
There is a land, far, far away
It's called Addis Ababa
There is a land, far, far away
It's called Addis Ababa
The ruler of that land, which is far away
His name is King Selassie
King of Kings and Lord of Lords
The ruler of that land, which is in the east
His name is King Selassie
We may now say, yeah
There is a land, far, far away
It's called Addis Ababa
There is a land, far, far away
It's called Addis Ababa (jah!)

Babylon them, they want to take away
The Ark of the Covenant from ya
Ark of the Covenant
Cannot be taken away
From Addis Ababa (respect)
There is a land, far, far away
It's called Addis Ababa
(Hear me when I say)
There is a land, far, far away
It's called Addis Ababa
King of Kings and Lord of Lords, ruler of creation
His name is King Selassie
Mussolini tried to invade Ethiopia but they conqueror
His name is King Selassie
Rule and respect
There is a land, far, far away
It's called Addis Ababa
(Chant with I and say)
There is a land, far, far away
It's called Addis Ababa
Wonders of the world
The great River Nile
Is found there in Africa
The great treasure of Axum
Axum of Zion
It's found there in Africa
