My child
My child, life is a test
I have experienced life's trials
They have overcome many hardships
Life throws its blows
My heart aches for the young facing these challenges
But hold on tight
I have faced many trials myself
My path was filled with hardship, oh yes
My child
Life is a journey
I have walked this path
I have experienced many trials
They have overcome many hardships
Life throws its blows
My child, I understand your struggle
My path was filled with hardship, oh yes
This world
You must do what is right, even when it's difficult, and avoid what is wrong
I try, I try, I try, I try
I try, I try, I try, I try

Woman
If you understand what I'm saying
Understand that everything changes
If you have wealth, don't be arrogant
If you lack it, don't be discouraged
Know that this too shall pass
Everything changes, good times and bad
The sun rises and sets
Babacar Kane, Mbaye Lo
Aladji Bada Lo, I admire you
Settal, Youssou Ndour, they call me
The griot of all griots
Settal, the star, they praise me
In the world of music, Youssou has a unique voice
Those who stray, I guide them
Those who are lost, I find them
Those who are confused, I enlighten them
