I guess I'll just take the same Amharic song that I posted in the songs thread once ("Yene Habesha," because I don't know any other Amharic songs besides that and "Kante Aybeltim," which Elaine posted once in the FSC) and post it here as well! I love this song. Actually, I love a lot of Ethiopian music I've heard:

I should look for more Amharic songs!

EDIT: Oh, and here's the lyric video. I forgot that I'd found this earlier, too. The video itself has the lyrics in Ge'ez script, and the video description has a Romanized version of them:

And I just discovered some more Amharic songs, some of them also with lyric videos (well, one of them is a lyric video) (or the lyrics) :P

Lyrics:

ፍቅሬን ችላ ብለሽ ጣል አርገሽ መውደዴን
ስታስከፊኝ ርቀሽ ቅር ቢለው ሆዴን
አይወጣኝም ክፉ ትዝብት ነው ትርፋ
(ፍቅሬን...)
.
አምናና ካቻምና ምን ብለሽኝ ነበር
ቃልሽ እንደ ወረት ወድቆ ባይሰበር
ቃልሽ እንደ ዘበት ወሰቆ ባይሰበር
.
ለቃል ኪዳን አድረሽ ካልታመንሽ እንደኔ
ለፍቅርም ጡር አለው ለፅድቅም ኩነኔ (2)
(ፍቅሬን...)
.
ክፋ አይውጣው እንጂ ሰው ያዝናል ሲከፋ
ብዙ ቢችል አንጀት ሆድ ካገር ቢሰፋ (2)
.
የፍቅርን ገበታ ሰው አብሮ ሰንቆ
ተሸሽጎ ላይችል ምን አስበላው ሰርቆ (2)
(ፍቅሬን...)
.
ምን አንጀት ቢከፋም ጭንቅ እያተረፈ
መለየት ይከብዳል አብሮ ካሳለፈ (2)
.
መራቅ አያሳሳ ለብቻ መልመዱ
ካንጀት የወደደን መች ይቆርጣል ሆዱ (2)
(ፍቅሬን...) x2
አይወጣኝም ክፉ ትዝብት ነው ትርፋ

This is a song from last year called "Tek'ebel" (ተቀበል) by Getish Mamo (ጌትሽ ማሞ):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0BdzfKYo7Z8
This is the official lyric video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A2Q3y908ajM
And then this year, possibly just a few months ago, Getish Mamo came out with another song called "Enkebaber" (እንከባበር), apparently a sequel to "Tek'ebel":
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kb0nAeufC3o
And below is the lyric video for that song:

This is a video of a live performance of a song by Teddy Afro (ቴዲ አፍሮ, whose real name is Tewodros Kassahun ቴዎድሮስ ካሳሁን) called "Ethiopia" (or ኢትዮጵያ. Earlier, I had posted a lyric video of another one of his songs, "Fikren Chila Belesh," but YouTube took it down :():
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fk4yHdJuKQU
And here's the lyric video for the same song:

Two more lyric videos for two pop songs in Amharic, one for "(Anchin Bilo), Lene Kalesh" by Abinet Agonafir:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zYPt_ZeG4Og
And the other for "Sew Yale Sew" by Tsegaye Eshetu:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vkLiQvf4YEs
I just hope that the lyric videos I posted actually stay up! YouTube seems to like deleting the lyric videos for most of these songs for some reason. :? Maybe I should consider trying to copy out the lyrics or finding the lyrics written out online.
