Member of the Zagwe Dynastaya
Ruled Ethiopia in those dayas
King of Kings known as Roha yea
Swarm of bees surround his head ah
And his mother knew he would be greater
He took a trod to I-rusalem
And returned with the angels again

Over by River Jordan
Was the capital of I-tiopia
Lebna Dengel was watching over
When the Portuguese came with dem obeah
According to Futuh al Habasa
Ahmad Gragn burned down one out ya
But I and I we don’t really feel so
Ten miles out the city they were led to
