- Calankaagu waa hibo, sharaf kugu hagoogane,
- Ciidaadu waa hodan, aad ku haqab beeshee,
- Waa haleelo dihin oo, horweyn kuu irmaanoo, aad ku hiranaysee,
- Haybad waxaad ku leedahay, dhulkaaga hooyo,
- Waana lama huraanee, hagar li'i wax ugu qabo,
- Hantiyey macaan, waa midaan hoy lagaa odhaneey helleyoow,
- Hanfi iyo kulayliyo, baraf ma leh dhulkeenuye,
- Innagaa halaynee, Soomaaliyey hoy,
- Hoodaale weeyaan, deegaankeena hodanka ah, loo wada hamuumane,
- Haybad waxaad ku leedahay, dhulkaaga hooyo,
- Waana lama huraanee, hagar li'i wax ugu qabo.
- Hantiyey macaan, waa midaan hoy lagaa odhaneey helleyoow,

- Bestowel your flag is, envelopes you in honour,
- Prosperous, your soil is, kerbs your urgencies,
- Yours is a fertile terrain, udderful horweyn[1] to where you seek refuge,
- Dignity, one adorns by virtue of one's motherly soil,
- Indispensable it becomes, sacrifice for its duty,
- O' its succulent affluence, one dares not muffle its citizen.
- Hanfi[2], sweltering, and snow, ours has none,
- Desecrated, we have O' progeny of Somal,
- Auspicious, prosperous, and coveted, ours is,
- Dignity one adorns by virtue of one's motherly soil,
- Indispensable it becomes, sacrifice for its duty,
- O' its succulent affluence, one dares not muffle its citizen.
