[Verse 1]

Nolosha waa safar dheer,

Life is a long journey,

Riyooyin baa iga buuxaan.

I am full of dreams.

Maanta waa bilow cusub,

Today is a new beginning,

Farxad baa igu dhalatay.

Joy has been born in me.

[Chorus]

Umu, adigu waa nuur,

Umu, you are light,

Qalbigaaga waa dahab.

Your heart is gold.

Dadkaagu ku jecel yihiin,

Your people love you,

Riyadaada ha rumowdo.

May your dreams come true.

[Verse 2]

Dhoolacadayntaada quruxda badan,

Your beautiful smile,

Waxay iftiimisaa wadadeyda.

It illuminates my path.

Dadka igu kalsoon,

The people who trust me,

Iimaankooda waa xoog.

Their faith is strength.

[Chorus]

Umu, adigu waa nuur,

Umu, you are light,

Qalbigaaga waa dahab.

Your heart is gold.

Dadkaagu ku jecel yihiin,

Your people love you,

Riyadaada ha rumowdo.

May your dreams come true.

[Bridge]

Horay u soco, ha joogsan,

Go forward, don't stop,

Hadafkaaga gaar.

Reach your goal.

Maalin walba wax baro.

Learn something new every day.

[Chorus]

Umu, adigu waa nuur,

Umu, you are light,

Qalbigaaga waa dahab.

Your heart is gold.

Dadkaagu ku jecel yihiin,

Your people love you,

Riyadaada ha rumowdo.

May your dreams come true.
