Lambadina

Ayinoche ayayu, birhan yelachew
Belijinete, diro atichachew
Liben tesemaw, engida neger
Mirkuz yije new, yemiyawkegn hager
Alem tayechign, be’anchi wist hona
Befikir kuraz, be’lambadina
Ahun aye ayine, ahun aye ayine
Ahun aye ayine, ahun aye ayine
 
(Lamba-dina, lamba…)
 
Meshito ayine be’lijinete
Merikagn sitimot enatee
Welell welel alelign
Be’fikir bira endalechign
Anchi lay wesida talechign
(lambadina)
Ye’emiye semiro timbitua
Wedaj agegnehu ke’anjetua
(welel welel aleligne)
Kuraze lik ende’maye
Anchi nesh lambadinaye
(lambadina)
 
Lambadina, lambadina
Lambadina, lambadina
lambadina honshilet
le’ayine, le’ayine mebrat
(Lamba-dina, lamba…)
 
Endatikorabet ayinihin
Fikir yalnekaw libihin
(welel welel alelign)
Bemayet silematibelitegn
Na menetsiren lewitegn
(Lambadina)
Fikir yelelew ayinama
Weitotal ena chelema
(welel, welel aleligne)
Sew wedo sew yalwededew
Mikruzen meto yiwsedew
(Lambadina)
 
Lambadina, lambadina
Lambadina, lambadina
lambadina honshilet
le’ayine, le’ayine mebrat
 
ye’ayine mekresu badonew
mayet lebichaw mindinew
sayay yamene siteraw
ey fikir meto siyaberaw
 
Ahun aye ayine, ahun aye ayine
Ahun aye ayine, ahun

Lambadina/Light

My eyes don't see, they have no vision
I lost them when I was a child
My heart feels something strange
Carrying a walking stick, that's how people know me
I can see the world through you
With love's furnace with a light
Now my eyes can see, now my eyes can see
Now my eyes can see, now my eyes can see
 
Like night my eyes when I was a child
My mother blessed me and died
Easy, easy it became for me
With love she told me
She took me and left me on you
(Light)
Mama's vision came true
Found someone who loves me in her heart
Easy, easy it became for me
My furnace as if I can see
You are my light
(Light)
 
Light, light
Light, light
Light you became
For my eyes, for my eyes illumination
 
Don't be too proud of your eyes
Love hasn't touched your heart
Easy, easy it became for me
By seeing you are not above me
So switch me glasses
(Light)
He who doesn't have love but can see
For darkness has swallowed him
Easy, easy it became for me
He who's loved but not been loved
Can come and take my walking stick
(Light)
 
Light, light
Light, light
Light you became
For my eyes, illumination
 
My eye sockets are empty
What good is it to just see?
He who believes without seeing will call on it
Watch as love comes and lights it up
 
Now my eyes can see, now my eyes can see
Now my eyes can see, now
