THE CONTINENT OF CONTINENTS
A wind-blow on the silent dune,
the freshness of the Nile,
the stateliness of animals.
The happiness of children playing football,
the difficulty of a colorful flower born from a barren soil,
the condition of hurt people who hope and believe in peace.
A special place where history and legends are interwoven.
AFRICA
We should all be brothers
of this suffering land;
We should all be custodians
of these primitive landscapes;
We should all be poets
of these deep feelings;
We should all be lovers of Africa.
SHADES
Africa the nobody knows
Pure land, oneness so rare
I can feel the sunshine
burning inside me
Far paradise, you remind me
a pleasure that makes me glad.
THE EARTH BEAT
Its spirit wanders free
beyond the immense sea
so calm and so wild, side by side
Africa, the place where our own
hearts should reside.
HORIZONS
The rising sun casts its rays upon
the sparkling sand
The waves are the beating heart of time
The wind, the flowery breath of the continent,
Africa, mother of all
WE THE PEOPLE
Farming is our source of income
Usually hit a lot of sun
Camels are our transportation
Kilimandjaro is the most gorgeous one
ON FIRE
Lions are roaring
Mangos are growing
This is our Southern culture
Africa is on fire
HOME
Everyone knows
River Nile flows
Sunshine glows
Such a good place
Egypt
