Ohhh yeah
Drums in the night
Fire in the sky
Yanga rise
Yanga rise
From the cane field, from the chain sound
From the hot sun burning on the ground
He heard freedom calling through the pain
Said we no go live and die in chains
To the highlands, to the mountain side
With the runaway souls he chose to ride
Cimarrón spirit, never bow
If not today, then na now
Hear the drum, ọmọ mi
Freedom song across the sea
A hụrụ m anyị n'anya
We were born to still be free
Yanga rise, make the whole world know
From Veracruz to the mountains go
Mo wa pẹlu ina, fire in my soul
No chain fit hold us, no man control
Yanga rise, let the story run
Through the night until the morning sun
Nkem, stand tall, never fall again
We turned our pain into a homeland
They built a town where the free hearts stay
San Lorenzo lighted up the way
Thirty years and more they held their ground
While the empire marched with iron sound
But the hills knew every secret road
And the brave ones bore a heavier load
When the soldiers came, they did not break
They fought for life, for their children's sake
Hear the cry, ọmọ ilẹ
No more fear, we find our way
Ase, ase, let it ring
Freedom first in everything
Yanga rise, make the whole world know
From Veracruz to the mountains go
Mo wa pẹlu ina, fire in my soul
No chain fit hold us, no man control
Yanga rise, let the story run
Through the night until the morning sun
Nkem, stand tall, never fall again
We turned our pain into a homeland
Not just a man, but a flame in the dark
Not just a name, but a freedom mark
They came with power, he came with will
And the echo of that victory lives still
From the palenque to history's page
