Lyrics and translation Lucky Dube - Ding Ding

Ding Ding

Seems it only happened yesterday
Now that I think about it
Tears cannot bring you joy
But joy can bring you tears
Even though I cry today
I will not hide it
Tears for a different reason
JOY
That is why I shouted out
For the world to hear
I say hello!
(HELLO!)
Hello!
(HELLO!)
Happiness
Oh Jah!
(Oh Jah!)
Thank you
(Thank you)
For another day
I say
Ding ding
A looka looka bong
Ding ding
A looka looke bong
(Ding ding, a looka lika looka bong)
(Ding ding A looka lika looka bong)
I say
A ding ding A looka likelika bong
Ding ding
A looka lika bong
(Ding ding a lika likelike bong)
(Ding ding a lika likelike bong)
(Ding ding a lika likelike bong)
Another cheater falls
But I don't really care
I took her own turning life before
But I think I didn't see
Old Jacks in the rearview mirror
They are there
Closer than they are
Put your thumbs up
(Thumbs up)
If you want to believe
Now a lesson learnt
On a Saturday night in Gai
And hello!
(HELLO!)
Hello
Happiness
Oh Jah!
(Oh Jah!)
Thank you
(Thank you)
For another chance(another chance)
I say
Ding ding
A looka looka bong
Ding ding
A looka looke bong
(Ding ding, a looka lika looka bong)
(Ding ding A looka lika looka bong)
I say
A ding ding A looka likelika bong
Ding ding
A looka lika bong
(Ding ding a lika likelike bong)
(Ding ding a lika likelike bong)
(Ding ding a lika likelike bong)
Ay gringo, come and dance with me
Come and dance, come and dance
(End)

Ding Ding

Il me semble que c'était hier
Maintenant que j'y pense
Les larmes ne peuvent pas t'apporter de la joie
Mais la joie peut t'apporter des larmes
Même si je pleure aujourd'hui
Je ne le cacherai pas
Des larmes pour une raison différente
LA JOIE
C'est pourquoi j'ai crié
Pour que le monde entende
Je dis bonjour !
(BONJOUR !)
Bonjour !
(BONJOUR !)
Le bonheur
Oh Jah !
(Oh Jah !)
Merci
(Merci)
Pour une autre journée
Je dis
Ding ding
Un looka looka bong
Ding ding
Un looka looka bong
(Ding ding, un looka lika looka bong)
(Ding ding Un looka lika looka bong)
Je dis
Un ding ding Un looka likelika bong
Ding ding
Un looka lika bong
(Ding ding un lika likelike bong)
(Ding ding un lika likelike bong)
(Ding ding un lika likelike bong)
Un autre tricheur tombe
Mais je m'en fiche vraiment
J'ai pris sa propre vie qui tourne avant
Mais je pense que je n'ai pas vu
Les vieux Jacks dans le rétroviseur
Ils sont là
Plus près qu'ils ne le sont
Lève le pouce
(Pouce en l'air)
Si tu veux croire
Maintenant une leçon apprise
Un samedi soir à Gai
Et bonjour !
(BONJOUR !)
Bonjour
Le bonheur
Oh Jah !
(Oh Jah !)
Merci
(Merci)
Pour une autre chance (une autre chance)
Je dis
Ding ding
Un looka looka bong
Ding ding
Un looka looka bong
(Ding ding, un looka lika looka bong)
(Ding ding Un looka lika looka bong)
Je dis
Un ding ding Un looka likelika bong
Ding ding
Un looka lika bong
(Ding ding un lika likelike bong)
(Ding ding un lika likelike bong)
(Ding ding un lika likelike bong)
Hé gringo, viens danser avec moi
Viens danser, viens danser
(Fin)
