EEDN
Torn apart like a rug
Like a soft tissue paper
Alone with lonliness
Like a pond imprisoned in a field
An immigrant in a refuge
Until I found my rescuer
Clinging safe on a cliff
My Home away from Home
EEDN........
The outcome of my bitterness
The wiper of my tears and sweat
My inner voice public outcry
The rebirth of abilities:
I fight for democracy
Human right's equality
The gift of my limbs
EEDN
The outcome of my prayers
There where I read
There where I write
Learn and in learn
In love of the permanent dawn
For that unconquerable
Peace grace Ethiopians bridge
My private space my root my culture my religion
Tomorro today
To swim in the infinite vision
The gate of knowledge
My profit - immigrants' delight
There here world - EEDN
Each is human
Each respected soverign member
My code my arts of alphabets
My lunch my seasons' avalanch
Where the learnersat are at ease
My single unique dream
Long live EEDN.
