[Verse 1]
Oh, Jah, can't you see your people are not free?
Now a weh we a go do if the time is so serious?
It's been a long-long time
Since we've been taken from our homeland
And scattered all over in babylon bondage
And though I'm praying night an' day to see my people unite
Oh, god, I'm praying they will stop fuss an' fight
They will love one another, like sisters an' brothers (Lord!)
Show us some mercy an' protect us
That follow your footsteps (Oh, Jah)

[Chorus]
Oh, Jah Jah; have mercy on us, Jah Jah
Oh, Jah Jah; have mercy on us, have mercy on us (Oh, yeah)

[Verse 2]
Can't you see? Your people, they are not free
On that day of repatriation
When every sheep must find their fold
You're gonna see the wickeds running towards our fold
Well, that's the day Jah children are gonna turn their back on you
So, don't be no fool, be wise and fight for your rights dis day, I pray
Love one another, like sisters an' brothers (Lord!)
Show us some mercy an' protect us
That follow your footsteps (Oh, Jah)
[Chorus]
Oh, Jah Jah; have mercy on us, have mercy on us (Oh, yes!)

[Outro]
Can't you see your people, they are not free (Wo-ho, yeah-yeah)
I wanna be free, yeah
