First stanza
Yɛn ara asaase ni;
Ɛyɛ abɔ den den de ma yεn,

Mogya a nananom hwie gu
Nya de to hɔ ma yɛn,
Aduru me ne wo nso so,
Sε yɛbɛyɛ bi atoa so. Nimdeɛ ntraso, nkoto-kranne;
Ne pɛsɛmenkomenya,

Adi yɛn bra mu dεm, ama yɛn asaase hɔ dɔ atomu sɛ.
This is our own native land;

What a priceless heritage,
Acquired with the blood
our ancestors shed for us;
It is now our turn
to continue what our ancestors started
Bragging of educational achievements; Or useless greed for material things,

And bad lifestyles are destroying our nation, and disgracing it.
Chorus

(Chorus 2x):
Ɔman no, sɛ ɛbɛyɛ yie o
Ɔman no, sɛ ɛrenyɛ yie o;
Ɛyɛ nsɛnnahɔ sɛ, Ɔmanfo bra na ɛkyerɛ.

Ɔman no, sɛ ɛbɛ yɛ yie o!
Ɔman no, sɛ ɛrenyɛ yie o!;

Ɛyɛ nsɛ nahɔ sɛ, Ɔmanfo bra na ɛkyerɛ.

(Chorus 2x):
Whether or not this nation prospers!
Whether or not this nation prospers!;
Clearly depends on the character of the citizens of the nation.

Whether or not this nation prospers!
Whether or not this nation prospers!;

Clearly depends on the character of the citizens of the nation.
Second stanza
Nhoma nimdeɛ huhugyan, ngyan ana ade anyara kwa;

Ne ɔbrakyew de ɛsɛe, ɔman na ɛbɔ no ahohora;
Asoɔmerɛ ne obupa yɔnko yiyɛ di pɛ daa,
Ahofama ntetekwaam ma nnipa biara yiyɛ de;
Ɛno mmom na ɛde asomdwee ne nkɔsoɔ pa brɛ ɔman.

Ɔman no, sɛ ɛbɛyɛ yie o!
Ɔman no, sɛ ɛrenyɛ yie o!;

Ɛyɛ nsɛnnahɔ sɛ, Ɔmanfo bra na ɛkyerɛ.
Obedience and respect;

Caring for the welfare of one another everyday,
Selflessness in the traditional way;
Ensures each person’s welfare,
That is what will bring peace and prosperity to our nation.

Whether or not this nation prospers!
Whether or not this nation prospers!;

Clearly depends on the character of the citizens of the nation.

  2. ↑ Who is a Ghanaian, and who is not?. GhanaWeb (11 February 2009). “I have always felt that the lyrics of the E?e original of Amu’s tune express a greater nationalist ethos than the more popular Twi translation. Mia denyigba lolo la (This, our beloved homeland), dear reader, is rendered in Twi merely as: Yen ara asaase ni (This is our own land).”
