In your temple o lord

In your temple O' Lord you have raised me 

For my tongue, you have taught me melody 

My God since birth it's You I desire

From pains of this world I have tired 

በቤተ መቅደስህ ያሳደከኝ፤

ለአፌ ጥበብን ያስተማርከኝ፤

የልጅነቴ አምላክ ወዴት አለህ፤

በዚህ ዓለም ሀሳብ ክንዴ ዛለ፤

My home is a poorly made creation

Quivering it is the foundation 

From the strength of my foes I'm exhausted

Alone I'm no longer supported

In your temple O' Lord you have raised me 

For my tongue, you have taught me melody 

My God since birth it's You I desire

From pains of this world I have tired 

Wasteful I have become rebellious

My sins against You are numerous

Clashing spiritually my path was blurred

Who can reunite me with your Word

In your temple O' Lord you have raised me 

For my tongue, you have taught me melody 

My God since birth it's You I desire

From pains of this world I have tired 

You're the peace that I long for all my years

I've written you in my heart with tears

The temptations of this world have chained me

Restore me O Lord and hear my plea

In your temple O' Lord you have raised me 

For my tongue, you have taught me melody 

My God since birth it's You I desire

From pains of this world I have tired 

Rebels enter Your home though unworthy

Touched by your love they receive mercy

From them your kind embrace did not depart

Your warm compassion melted their heart 

In your temple O' Lord you have raised me 

For my tongue, you have taught me melody 

My God since birth it's You I desire

From pains of this world I have tired 

በቤተ መቅደስህ ያሳደከኝ፤

ለአፌ ጥበብን ያስተማርከኝ፤

የልጅነቴ አምላክ ወዴት አለህ፤

በዚህ ዓለም ሀሳብ ክንዴ ዛለ፤
