youssou ndour Demb

[abcd16757]

cette chanson reflète toujours de l'actualité l'esclavage continue passivement

[mdmohawk09]

A person without a culture is like a tree with no roots,, take that from me

[biba003]

L'Afrique a souffert quelque fois fois complice de la vente de ses frères, quelque fois de sa naiveté...

L'Afrique souffre d'institutions internationales, d'une image chaotique conséquence d'une conspiration médiatique,politique à l'échelle internationale...

L'Afrique souffrira de sa renaissance, elle a pardonné mais n'oubliera jamais...posons nous tous autant que nous sommes les vrais questions.. l'heure n'est plus au larmes, ni aux armes...Thanks for make your think up!!

The tears I cried for Africa.

But if there is still hope, there is still time for truth.

I kept crying as Africa is one.

Africa is one, oh the tears I shed.

Africa is one, I cry, I cry, I cry for Africa to be one, united....

[kkanealvine]

thank you for the translation

[ajah21]

No, I am the one who owes you thanks for putting this up. This song touches me so deeply I cannot even begin to explain, lol. Thank you for this.

[ajah21]

Now, the black man tried, tried so hard to get back what he lost: his culture/tradition

Don't ever choose anything else over your culture/tradition

The reason for the wars in Africa is that the black man loves power. but what we need right now is unity because THAT is our power.

There are some who've immigrated to the west, they left long ago.

Today, they have nothing and will never see their relatives again.

Yes Ndella Wade (?) you are a great person give me some of your slaves (?)

[ajah21]

Translation:

Demb/Yesterday

Yesterday is gone

but it won't stop me from reminiscing.

Our Ancestors suffered

So, if we are where we are today, it is because of them/ their sacrifices.

I can't stop remembering

Yes, it is now past but it won't stop me from remembering if we are where we are today, it is because of them/ their sacrifice.

In the past, they used to find you in the midst of your children, chain you up and take you away.

Your wealth, your children never to be seen again.
