Arabic lyrics

إريتريا ،إريتريا ،إريتريا،
قد دحرت بغيظهم أعداءها ،
وتوجت بالنصر تضحياتها.

على الأهداف عضت من عهود ،
غدا اسمها معجزة الصمود ،
فخر المكافحين إريتريا ،
قد برهنت أن العلا لها.

إريتريا ، إريتريا ،
تبوأت مكانها بين الأمم.

بإصرارنا الذي جنى التحرير ،
سننجز البناء والتعمير ،
لتزدهر وتلبس الوقار ،
تعهدنا أن تسمو إريتريا.

إريتريا ، إريتريا ،
تبوأت مكانها بين الأمم.

Italian translation

𝄆 Eritrea, Eritrea, Eritrea,
La sua nemesi distrutta mentre piange,
i suoi sacrifici confermati dalla libertà. 𝄇

Per sempre ferma nei suoi principi,
il suo nome è diventato sinonimo di tenacia,
Eritrea, l'orgoglio degli oppressi,
è un testamento che la verità prevale.

Eritrea, Eritrea,
ha preso il suo posto legittimo nel mondo.

[In modo che] La dedizione suprema che ci ha portato la libertà,
servirà a ricostruirla e svilupparla,
La onoreremo con il progresso,
È la nostra eredità incoronarla.

𝄆 Eritrea, Eritrea,
ha preso il suo posto legittimo nel mondo. 𝄇

English translation

Eritrea, Eritrea, Eritrea,
Her Nemesis destroyed while wailing,
her sacrifices vindicated by freedom.

Forever firm in her principles,
her name became a synonym of tenacity,
Eritrea, the pride of the oppressed,
is a testament that truth prevails.

Eritrea, Eritrea,
Has taken her rightful place in the world.

The supreme dedication that brought us freedom,
will serve to rebuild her and develop her,
We shall honor her with progress,
It is our legacy to crown her.

Eritrea, Eritrea,
Has taken her rightful place in the world.
