The son has been born
Let us shout with joy so our hearts delight
The Son has been born and freed us with might
The heavens opened His mystery in sight
Elil elilil des yibelen
Weld teweldo netsa wetan
Semay tekefto mistir ayen
Through the dark veil of sin His brilliance wasn’t shown
The one above the clouds who sits upon the throne
The wall had fell apart as the mystery unveiled
When the Virgin brought forth the savior of the world
Let us shout with joy so our hearts delight
The Son has been born and freed us with might
The heavens opened His mystery in sight
He partook from our blood and took flesh from our flesh
He strengthened our bond So that we won’t perish
Tewahedo became true in the womb of Mary
Fulfilled was the hope of Adam who was weary
Let us shout with joy so our hearts delight
The Son has been born and freed us with might
The heavens opened His mystery in sight
When the messiah came Our Lord Christ Jesus
The garden of Eden was then returned to us
The angels together sang on earth with mankind
Giving up His glory with us He reconciled
Let us shout with joy so our hearts delight
The Son has been born and freed us with might
The heavens opened His mystery in sight
Elil elilil des yibelen
Weld teweldo netsa wetan
Semay tekefto mistir ayen
