Intro: A# Eb F

Whoa oh oh oh aye 
I and I so strong 
I ah Ethiopian, Ethiopian 
This comin' from ah distance 

[CHORUS:]              A#
Take these words of divine 
                     Eb  F
to the princess right away
               A#
Tell her to be fine
                     Eb  F 
I don't want her to stray 
          A#
Words of divine,
                     Eb  F 
to the empress right away 
              A#
Tell her to be mine
                    Eb  F 
I don't want her to stray 

(A# Eb F)
Knowin your portion, who knows your motion 
Joyful will I be in your eyes 
Put-a put away pollution, sabbatical strong 
Royalty belongs to my side, 
let us care for the younger ones 
the children our tongue 
Nature grows and prove you're qualified 
to know and overstand no segregation 
That is not the works of the wise 

[CHORUS:]
Words of divine 
to the princess right away 
Tell her to be fine 
Never go astray 
Words of divine, 
to all the woman right away 
Put Selassie pun uno mind 
Never go astray 

(A# Eb F)
Hey 
Confuse not your heart with the termoils in live 
Oh oh, Oh woman of the isles in strife, 
that's what I behold in my sight 
You no fi stop hail King Selassie I 
Oh what family you fright 
Bless her down with faith, take this to her gate, 
with love before the falling of the night 

[CHORUS:]
These words of divine 
to the empress right away 
Tell her to be fine 
And never go astray 
Words of divine, 
to my princess right away 
Tell her to be fine 
I'll be there on the day, hey hey 

(A# Eb F)
I see round and about, 
I hear the sounds from the mouth 
Defiling all the stock upon the shelf 
I've been the least, yet me trod fi east 
I can only give approve of myself 
Me me me see say nuff woman weak 
mankind uno no see it 
No hurt, if yuh come here come help 
The whole of uno come from the heap 
rise with the wheat 
The _ of the blackman wealth 

[CHORUS:]
Take these words of divine 
to the empress right away 
Tell her to be fine 
I don't want her to stray 
Words of divine, 
to the woman right away 
Tell her to be mine 
Never go astray 

(A# Eb F)
Knowin your motion, I knows your portion 
Joyful will you be in my eyes 
Put-a put away pollution, sabbatical strong 
Royalty belongs to her side, 
let us care for the younger ones 
the children our tongue 
Nature grows and prove you're qualified 
to know yet overstand no segregation 
That is not the work of the wise 

[CHORUS:]
Words of divine 
to the empress right away 
to all the woman them right away 
Put Selassie pun your mind...
