CHORUS:
Qolobaa calankeedu, waa ceynoo,
Qolobaa calankeedu, waa ceynoo,
Innaga keenu waa, cirkoo kale e,
Oon caadna lahayn, ee caashaqaye.
1. Xidigyey cadi waad na ciidamisee
Carrada kaligaa adow curadee
Cadceedda sideeda caan noqo
Chorus
2. Cishadad dhalataad calooshayadii
Cishadad dhalataad calooshayadii
Sidii culaygii cidaad marisee
Allow ha ku celin cawoy dhaha
Chorus

CHORUS:
Every nation has its own flag.
Every nation has its own flag.
Ours is like the sky without any signs of clouds
All of which we have come to love.
1. Oh you White Star, at your service we are
Oh you White Star, at your service we are
Superior you are, in any part of our land
Be famous oh Star, like the sun
Chorus
2. On the day you arose, our hearts you have
On the day you arose, our hearts you have
Purified with pureness
O Allah, do not dim the flag, pray we in this night
Chorus
