Dido Ft. Youssou N'Dour - Seven Seconds Away Live 2005 at Jesters Lyrics

Videoclip of the song "Seven Seconds" from Youssou Ndour, the original song was featuring Neneh Cherry

Here The Lyrics:
Boul ma sene, boul ma guiss madi re nga fokni mane
Khamouma li neka thi sama souf ak thi guinaw
Beugouma kouma khol oaldine yaw li neka si yaw
mo ne si man, li ne si mane moye dilene diapale

Roughneck and rudeness,
We should be using, on the ones who practice wicked charms
For the sword and the stone
Bad to the bone
Battle is not over
Even when it's won
And when a child is born into this world
It has no concept
Of the tone the skin is living in

CHORUS
It's not a second
Seven seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting
It's not a second
Seven seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting (x3)

J'assume les raisons qui nous poussent de changer tout,
J'aimerais qu'on oublie leur couleur pour qu'ils esperent
Beaucoup de sentiments de race qui font qu'ils desesperent
Je veux les portes grandements ouvertes,
Des amis pour parler de leur peine, de leur joie
Pour qu'ils leur filent des infos qui ne divisent pas
Changer

CHORUS

And when a child is born into this world
It has no concept
Of the tone of the skin he's living in
And there's a million voices
And there's a million voices
To tell you what she should be thinking
So you better sober up for just a second

CHORUS

@donogleone das nennt man auch charakter etwas das du anscheinend nicht wahrnehmen kannst. Du hörst warscheinlich lieber die Atzen oder andere Clowns und denkst dass wäre richtige musik.

This is so nice, it's good to know that artists organize such events to collect money for African people, not everything is lost.... :) besides i love Dido's voice, she's gorgeous... nevertheless i like Neneh's. both versions are awesome...Hope Youssou wins Senegal presidence, he seems to be an honest, humble and caring man, he may do many things to help his people, you can see in his face all the things that he surely was through like Neneh Cherry, Seal or Sade all of them very talented african
