Paroles et traduction Bebe Cool - Mandela

Mandela

Hea
Tururururu
Hea
Tururururu
Ooo oooh oooh oooh

In the years of the world a baby boy was born
In the humble town Soweto where he grew up to a man
And not just a man but a natural philosopher of mankind yeah
He believed that you and I could love another
Regardless of skin color it don't matter
But we live in denial
In the eyes of the father
Oh lord have mercy on us the white man's domination
A trouble for his nation
And fighting this motion
Could take a life to prison
A reason for formation of the black man's equation
Coz only resistance gave away to liberation

We give thanks to president Mandela
We give thanks to emperor Selassie
We give thanks to Martin Luther king
And all the great kings of Africa
We give thanks to president Mandela
We give thanks to Kwame Nkuruma
We give thanks to Julius Nyerere
And all the great leaders of Africa
Hey

Every man in this world needs equality
Remember black or white
We all humanity
Animalia the group one identity
Where you hail from is just a geography
God created Africa
And gave us this beautiful land
So that we think of agriculture yeah
Just to feed the hunger pain
So don't let a brother shed a tear
Don't let your sister liv in fear
We need great leaders like Madiba yeah
Who can initiate democracy

We give thanks to president Mandela
We give thanks to emperor Selassie
We give thanks to Martin Luther king
And all the great kings of Africa
We give thanks to president Mandela
We give thanks to Kwame Nkuruma
We give thanks to Julius Nyerere
And all the great leaders of Africa
Hey

Just to feed the hunger pain
