Ya zol! Hear the voice of the streets oh!
No more hiding, no more silent tears!
Ah, we see everything!
Look at Juba, look at the Nile so wide
But the hunger and pain, you cannot hide
You take the oil, you take the gold from the ground
While the common citizen has nothing to be found
You fly to foreign lands to spend the country's wealth
While our children cry for food, education, and health
But the sun is rising, and the truth will speak
We are standing strong, we are no longer weak
Stop the looting, hear the people's cry!
Under the warm South Sudan sky!
Our resources belong to everyone
A new dawn for our land has just begun!
Stop the looting, let the people breathe
We want peace, we want to believe!
In the offices, you sit on your high chair
Signing deals, acting like you do not care
But the shabab are watching, the mothers are awake
There is only so much pain a nation can take
From Malakal to Wau, we demand what is right
No more division, we are joining the fight
For the future of the soil, for the land we love
We pray for justice from the Heavens above
Stop the looting, hear the people's cry!
Under the warm South Sudan sky!
Our resources belong to everyone
A new dawn for our land has just begun!
Stop the looting, let the people breathe
We want peace, we want to believe!
Ya zol, it is time!
For the people!
No more corruption!
One nation, one people, let us rise!
