BUJU BANTON

BUJU BANTON - Negus Nagast lyrics

rate me

Hail Ishmael Wadada

From the Root of David, he's Amlak

Hail Ishmael Amlak

From the Root of the great man Solomon, he's Rasta

IGZIABEHER!

(King of kings) NEGUS NAGAST!

(Lord of lords) Jah!

IGZIABEHER!

(King of kings) NEGUS NAGAST!

(Lord of lords) Jah!

When I saw more than twenty thousand chariots

And their leader, yes, he was the great Tekla Haimanot

And they were going, Lord

Singing such a sweet song

I could not overstand

But I heard the voice of the clergy man

When he said

IGZIABEHER!

(King of kings) NEGUS NAGAST!

(Lord of lords) Jah!

IGZIABEHER!

(King of kings) NEGUS NAGAST!

(Lord of lords) Yeah!

But it was written in the faith and he goes

Telling the bear and eagles

False unto man and man

And such and such and such

Saying We should live upright

Oh, should not fight and fuss

Deliveror must be clean

And thus and thus and thus

O Buju Banton, lip of brass

Then I saw the man with the golden cross

As he went down into the water

Behold the sands he trod

I could not repeat afterwards

He said

IGZIABEHER!

(King of kings) NEGUS NAGAST!

(Lord of lords) Ja!

IGZIABEHER! Yah!

(King of kings) NEGUS NAGAST!

(Lord of lords) Yeah!

Well, they're all dressed in white

Woman and man on every side

Children all were there

Feeling joy in side

And then the champions reign

They prayed, I sang

In their mouths they tipped a little wine and dread

And they remember

Every word the Great One said

From priest to prophet

Abraham right down to Zed

All my people, you should be there to behold

The sight I have seen

Oh it's gonna run could never to-o-o-o

Well, why, why, wo-o-o-o-o

IGZIABEHER!

(King of kings) NEGUS NAGAST!

(Lord of lords) Jah!

IGZIABEHER!

(King of kings) NEGUS NAGAST!

(Lord of lords) Jah!

In dreams I saw

More than twenty thousand chariots

And their leader, yeah, was the great Tekla Haimanot

Trod they were going

Chanting such a sweet song

I could not overstand

But I heard the voice of the clergy man

When he said

IGZIABEHER!

Behold, He is the beginning and the end

The Alpha and Omega

(King of kings) NEGUS NAGAST!

Behold, He come into life in brimstone and fire

(Lord of lords) Jah!

Igziabeher!...
