(Chorus)
If you make your way to the horn of Africa / you'll want to stop and stay in Ethiopia (2x)
With a population of over 102 million people, Ethiopia is the most populous landlocked country in the world.
Addis Ababa is the capital city, and also the largest city, in Ethiopia.
The Simian Mountains / Yangudi-Rassa National Park
The Bahir Dar Blue Nile River Millenium Park
The Abijata Lakes / Oh how I enjoy the taste
Of mango, papaya, pineapple, avocado and grape
(Chorus)
The official language of Ethiopia is Amharic. Other languages spoken include Afar, Harari, Oromo, and Somali.
Ethiopia utilizes the Ge'ez script, one of the oldest alphabets in the world
Pyracontha jasmine / pointsettia and calla lillies
Acacia, warka, olive, and the false banana tree
Cheetah, civets, and lions / the African bush elephant
Bushpig, gazelles, turacos, blue winged goose and waddled ibis
(Chorus)
The national flower of Ethopia is the calla lily, and the national animal is the lion.
Key Ethiopian cultural icons include filmmaker Haile Gerima, author Haddis Alemayehu, and poet and playwright Tsegaye Gabre-Medhin. The official unit of currency is the birr.
