Lions of Men

 

When the Northern clans ducked their heads

and when the western clans (Oggadeenss) stood by us

 

Oh lions of men

When the abbyssians held us by our necks

because of our own folly

because of our own rotten deeds

 

When the camels cried because of what they saw

When the blue skies of somalia turned grey

and when the blue ocean of Somalia turned red

red in the blood of those that were slain

 

Oh men of men

When we told you that the odds were against us

When the world stood against us

and called us terrorist

 

We swear that you stood as men on the plains of Ras kambooni

As US vultures hoovered above our heads

ducking their beads from time to time

 

Nay, Allah has not abandoned us

because he has blessed amongst us Lions of men.

Lions that stand as men
