Africa mãe, trás de volta meus zigais
Mãe Africa, cale estes meus ais
Africa mãe, meu sangue Africa
Devolvo teu sangue sugado por estas bocas
Africa mãe, trás de volta meu ideais
Minha voz perdida trás Africa

Minha pele negra, sangue ferve igual
Minhas lágrimas negras, minha fé pouca
Meu sangue ferve, minha mão se cava
A boca calada, lágrima
Meu amor da Africa, trás de volta a fé

Lament for Africa/Rictus

I have been waiting for so long
Yearning for you
I have been waiting for so long
Yearning for you

Mama, mama, oh
Mama, mama, oh
You have broken my heart
My mother's pain
You have broken my heart
My mother's pain

Mama, mama, oh
Mama, mama, oh

I have been waiting for so long
Yearning for you
I have been waiting for so long
Yearning for you

Mama, mama, oh
Mama, mama, oh

You have broken my heart
My mother's pain
You have broken my heart
My mother's pain

Mama, mama, oh
Mama, mama, oh

Africa mother, bring back my children
Mother Africa, silence these cries
Africa mother, my blood, Africa
I return your blood, sucked by these mouths
Africa mother, bring back my ideals
Africa brings back my lost voice

My black skin, blood still boils
My black tears, my little faith
My blood boils, my hand digs
The mouth silent, tears
My love for Africa, bring back the faith
