“Golden Jubilee” - Awate: the man some
Strive to discredit… but they fail
On this day, we remember our noble martyrs, women
and men
Who fought bravely although knowing death was
certain!
Today, we remember their supreme sacrifices that
created our entity
Their struggle and martyrdom for our independence
and identity
They wrote with their blood Eritrean history with
magnanimity
To be free and build a nation based on rule of
law and equality
Traitors threw themselves at the emperor’s feet
for servility
Kissed his shoes & sold Eritrea to mum Ethiopia
with humility
We fought for thirty years because of their
egoism & imbecility
Still we are suffering from the inheritors of
chauvinism & falsity
Awate, the brave man who declared the path to our
liberty
Chose to challenge oppression, fight for freedom
and dignity
The martyr was a great man, reflected in his
indomitability
The hero was brave, his heroism manifested in his
audacity
The father of Eritrean revolution & armed
struggle in our history
Embarked into the road of freedom to lead Eritrea
to final victory
He was a simple man…his strength demonstrated in
his simplicity
He was tactful and wise respected by all because
of his intrepidity
Walked his talk and led the battles to victory
without ambiguity
He struggled to create Eritrean Independence and
sovereignty
He was a leader who led by example with courage
and ingenuity
It’s incontrovertible to admire our icon with
such noble personality
Trying to discredit and ignore Awate sacrifices
are false & vanity
He was visionary who saw “Eritrean Independence”
as a certainty
He was charismatic and loved by all, without much
ado with sincerity
Truth will prevail when Eritrea will be freed
from disgrace & banditry
Awate loved Eritrea and Eritrea loves this
patriot forever for posterity
They are two in one, in unison synchronized and
linked for eternity
Striving for the majority rule that fully
protects the rights of minority
Justice, equality & rule
of law as cornerstone of our national authority
Our spirit of Awatism, Eritreanism and
Nationalism will not us fail
United we stand and succeed …divided we fall and
live in despair
Let us celebrate our “Golden Jubilee” and free
Eritrea without fanfare
Follow the path of Awate to struggle, so our
pride & freedom we obtain
No matter how long the night of tyranny, dawn is
sure to come again
Let us fight united now, to eradicate oppression
without any bargain
Awate is our man who led us to pride, freedom,
dignity and liberation
It is unjust to be discredited by the inheritors
of stigmatic submission
He is our hero and national symbol and as such in
history will remain
Traitors & chauvinists will disappear and Eritrea
soon its freedom will regain
