YOUNG GODS OF THE EARTH

I children...i children...
young gods of the earth
the sunrise
the new moon
ancient yet newborn
tenderly rising

the dawn of creation 
when as the sun
the son and daughter of JAH Rastafari
I and I brought them forth
To replenish the earth
to give the world a new birth

I children...
I youths...
Irated in ilaness
the sucklings
out of whose mouths must forth strength
TO LEAD THE ANCIENT AND WISE

I children 
BORN FREE
ZION knowing
tenderness rising
pointing I home.
