- ወይ አዲስ አበባ ወይ አራዳ ሆይ
ሐገርም እንደ ስው ይናፍቃል ወይ
Most Ethiopians Remember Gibreab Teferi by this lyrics (en)
- አልጠላሽም ከቶ
ጊዜ ቢያሳየኝም ጥፋትሽን አጉልቶ
እኔ እንዳንቺ አልሆንም አልጠላሽም ከቶ
ፍቅራችን ይቀመጥ ድሮ እንደነበረ
ጠላሁሽ ሳልልሽ ገሸሽ አትበይ አረ
መሮሽም እንደሆን የፍቅራችን ኮሽም
እንዳሻሽ አድርጊኝ ፈጽሞ አልጠላሽም
ያን ሁሉ ጥፈትሽን እለዋለሁ ይቅር
አልታደልኩምና ምንጊዜም ለፍቅር
በፍቅርሽ መንምኖ ያ ሁሉ ዘመኔ
አሁን ብትጠይኝ አልጠላሽም እኔ
ጥፋት ሳላጠፋ እንዲያው ከምትሸሺ
ያለፈውን ፍቅር እባክሽ አስታውሺ
ስታደርጊ እያየሁ ፍቅራችንን ውድም
ባንቺ ላይ ነው እንጂ በጊዜው አልፈርድም
ሺህ ጊዜ በድይኝ ምንም ነገር ልሁን
ኑሮ ካልለወጠኝ አልጠላሽም አሁን (en)
- "አራዳ ለ አራዳ ሲነፋ መለከት
ትንቡክ አርጎ ስሞ ዐይን ዐይንዋን መመልከት
ክራር አመታለሁ በየሁሉ ደጅ
እንደ አራዳ ቅኝት አላገኝም አንጂ" (en)
