[Verse 1: Ilyas]
Waking up, I can smell the shaah brewing
So you know I'm heading straight to the kitchen
Caano, heel and don't forget the qarfo
The taste on my tongue, it reminds me of the halwo
The best feeling that I had ever known
Ten siblings gathered in single home
Ain't nobody hold it down like hooyo
You never made it seem like it was difficult
Always had a smile on your face
The trails of your tears, you ain't never left a trace
Those bitter situations you didn't want us to taste
So growing up was sweet like the Sun in Somalia
Lately I've been restless, missing ya
But I can't even go back home
Aabo getting on me, rocking that macwiis
Miswaak up in his teeth, is what I miss the most
We gotta come together like bariis and moss
Why we gotta fight? Cuz really we're just one tribe
Now let's just unite like our families at dinner time
Let's cherish all our elders, and listen to their stories
Take care of all our young ones, and show 'em that we all one
Somalia, where we come from (x3)
[Chorus: Ilyas] (x2)
Soomaliyeey toosoo
Toosoo isku tiirsada eey
Hadba kiina taag daraneey
Taageera weligiineey
[Verse 2: Saabik]
Hooyo, Aabo, Abti, Adeer
Maalin habeen
Jannat ul-Firdaws
Calanka
[Chorus: Ilyas] (x2)
Soomaliyeey toosoo
Toosoo isku tiirsada eey
Hadba kiina taag daraneey
Taageera weligiineey
