ላፋርስ ፋርሶታት ዋድቃ ፡ እብ ኣማን ኣክራራ

ርሳስ ሰጆታት ኣስክ ዮም፡ ዲብ ጎሮቡ ላጾራ
እት ምግብ ሕፍን እሳት፡ ርድኡኒ ላኢበላ

Tsega & Aklilu: Thanks for your nice words, and I appreciated you guys for taking your time in encouraging me and acknowledging my efforts in expressing my feeling about our fallen brother thru poem it’s the least I can say or write of the hero Tesfazion Hibtes
Thank you Yassino for this great poem about our great uncle Tesfachoen! Like all Eritrean freedom fighters Tesfachon has contributed his part heroically to the independence and constructive peace of our country Eritrea. A man of great moral fortitude has left the world. And in a few but well written words you have informed us about his lasting legacy. You have such a gift for using the language—each line feels so deliberate and meaningful.
Thanks again Yasino!
Thank you Yassin huye for using your talent to describe the heroism of our late brother Tesfazion.
Indeed, he is another example of determination, courage and a symbol of ultimate sacrifice for freedom. We are immensely grateful for him and all our fallen heroes. May his legacy shine forever.
