Sarreeye calanka sudhan Bilay dhulkiisaa,
Hanbalyo suuban kugu salaannee
Geesiyaashii naftooda u sadqeeyay
Xuskooda dhowrsan kugu salaannee
Guulside xanbaarsan
Kalsooniduu mutaystayee dastuurka
Midnimo walaalnimo Goobanimo
Islaanimo kugu salaanee samow samidiyo
Samo ku waar samo ku waar Soomaaliland
And admiration
We greet you with joy,
The heroes who sacrificed their lives
We greet you with the memory
And the return of success bearer
For the Symbol of Rebirth
We greet you with unity, Brotherhood
Sovereignty and Muslimhood
Long life with peace, long life with peace Somaliland
