War In Africa
Aleksander Mežek · Svetle Kaplje
Black hands beaten
For their hungry souls
There's a struggle for survival
Raging day by day
There is a war in Africa
V plamenih vojne Afrika,
suhe solze mičijo peščena tla.
Za klasom bede raste klas gorja,
v plamenih vojne Afrika.
Fume lava rambiva
Fume lava rambiva
Fume lava rambiva
Akufamba matilveni
There is a war in Africa
Where the minds are still bound
By slavery chains
And the hearts are left bleeding
In the alleyways
There is a war in Africa
There is a war in Africa
Where a killer virus
Counts the nameless dead
And dignity cannot afford
A hospital bed
There is a war in Africa
Fume lava rambiva
Fume lava rambiva
Fume lava rambiva
Akufamba matilveni
Kako se lahko obrneš proč,
odkloniš prošnjr za pomoč
tem dušam, rayoranim od pekla?
There is a war in Africa
Black hands beaten
For their hungry souls
There's a struggle for survival
Raging day by day
There is a war in Africa
Fume lava rambiva
Fume lava rambiva
Fume lava rambiva
Akufamba matilveni
