Chorus Yes Jah, be I strong, whenever they rise against us |
They want to do us wrong, the powers of Selassie protect us |

Verse 1 Oh, let us have a great day, ohh |
Go, no gold for yon |

Neither buy yuh pearl nor yuh gem |
Oh, ah see dem praise themself, I agree, everyone needs help |
But if ah never, as well as whenever yuh rage |
Den yuh know something else, woh, oh! |
Chorus Yes Jah, be I strong, whenever they rise against us |
They want to do me wrong, the powers of Selassie protect us |
Whenever, be I strong, whenever they rise against us |
They want to do I wrong, Ay!, the powers of Jah, yow |
Verse 2 Dey wouldn’t mind if dey could kill our youth |
And every time dey tell ah lie that we loot |
Come down in ah mi village and dem know dat dat dem toop |

Verse 3 Stand firm, Rastafari live forever more |
I and I know King Selassie shall come in the dark |
The likes of the poor want more |
Remember House of Parliament, did fi bun |
To do good, dey all ignore, ay! |
Ghetto youth--watch it dey mi go lick down satan |
We need some food, some clothes, all good education, repatriation right now |
Ow!, no harm shall come upon our children, Pharaoh |
Remember not even the disasterous pestilence |
No harm shall come upon thy children, oh yeah |
Not even the disasterous pestilence, well |
Bun Prime Minister, bun down de soap |
Me gon' bun police in ah him brutal soup |
No call me no dan, fire pon dope |
Me ah de living rastaman from King Solomon root |
Ohh! |
