Select language to translate this lyric
You shine like the sun wrapped in beauty
Welcome to Africa, agonizing Africa
Under the watchful eye of the predator
Stolen and distributed, naked and stripped
Welcome to à Africa, agonizing Africa
condemned to misery and marginalization
Uh uh uh uh
Famine and desolation
uh uh uh uh
Like a curse, I know them Lords of Usury
Welcome to Africa, agonizing Africa
they maintain imbalance and dispossession
A thousand times plundered, raped and dismembered
Welcome to Africa, agony Africa
Your children under the yoke of a new slavery
Uh uh uh uh
Your weakness is your downfall
uh uh uh uh
The lion's throat has not stopped roaring
when you see your children die
in the harshest exclusion of a commercial world
there is no place for you
I raise my voice, Africa calls for emancipation
from centuries of colonization
Insubmission to the foreign debt to the corporation
to the satrap who betrayed them
Uh uh uh uh
Tur iqueza es tu perdition
uh uh uh uh
The lion's throat has not stopped roaring
when you see your children die
in the harshest exclusion of a commercial world
there is no place for you
You shine like the sun wrapped in misery
Welcome to Africa, agonizing Africa
