Righteous King, Haile I, Haile I!

Flaming fire minister to HIM
Enthroned between the cherubim
Proclaim like Isaiah I sing
And up to Messiah a hymn
He who was unseen
Ever reveal the golden mean
Of heavenly manner living
The children of chokhma rise from within
Of heavenly manna resin
Resembling the King of Kings
I and I assemble in the Righteous King

Whether rain or come shine
Jah Ras Tafari light
For He's the same, every time, He arrives
At Zion's height, there is no night
Haile Selassie is light
Up lion's head there is no death
Jah Ras Tafari is life
Seen in the light

Jah Ras Tafari is life
Seen in the light

Who comes out like a bridegroom leaving his chamber
Like a strong man whose running his course with joy
His rising is from the end of the heavens
And His circuit unto the end of them

Shine forth,
Before Ephraim
Manneseh ve Benjamin
You who lead
Joseph like a flock through Egyptian terrain
Still remain
Stay the same
Though the garment you exchange

Though the garment you exchange
You forever stay the same
Though the garment you exchange
You're forever!

Whether rain or come shine
Jah Ras Tafari light
For He's the same, everytime, He arrives
At Zion's height
There is no night
Up lion's head, there is no death
Jah Ras Tafari is life
Seen in the light

Haile Selassie
Jah Ras Tafari

Flaming fire minister to HIM
Enthroned between the cherubim

Of heavenly manna resin
Resembling the King of Kings
I and I assemble in the Righteous King

Whether rain or come shine
Jah Ras Tafari light
For He's the same every time He arrives
At Zion's height, there is no night
Haile Selassie is light
Up lion's head there is no death
Jah Ras Tafari is life
Seen in the light

Flaming fire minister to HIM
Enthroned between the cherubim
Proclaim like Isaiah I sing
And up to Messiah a hymn
He who was unseen
Ever reveal the golden mean
Of heavenly manner
