[Intro:]

[Drum beats]
Go and wake the town,here comes the sound
To give the people freedom and put away yuh frown
Babylon,yuh get no turn
The 'Binghi Youth see yuh plantation getting burn
Yay-yay-I!!!

[Chorus:]
Lovely morning filled with the beauty of goodness life cyah done
Lovely morning--give thanks for life,strive with the rising sun
Lovely morning filled with the beauty of goodness life cyah done
Nyabinghi chanting--give thanks for life,I strive with the rising sun

[Verse 1:]
Hail de ghetto youths dem pon de River Nile bank
All is but just,de Rasta better give thanks
Black people give thanks for the giving of thanks
Nuff ah unno Babylon did wah fi vank
