Eritrean Flag

 

Eritrean National Emblem

English Translation

Eritrea, Eritrea, Eritrea,
Her enemy decimated
and her sacrifices vindicated by liberation.
 

Steadfast in her goal,
symbolizing endurance,
Eritrea, the pride of her oppressed people,
proved that the truth prevails.
 

CHORUS
Eritrea, Eritrea
holds her rightful place in the world.
 

Dedication that led to liberation
Will buildup and make her green
We shall honour her with progress
We have a word to her to embellish
