Paroles et traduction Mayra Andrade - Dimokansa

Dimokansa

Kantádu ma dimokrasiâ
Ma stába sukundidu
Ma tudu dja sai na kláru
I nós tudu dja bira sabidu
Kada um ku si maniâ
Fla rodóndu bira kuadrádu
Kada um ku si tioriâ
Poi razom pendi di si ládu
Ti manel bira mambiâ
Ti lobu bira xibinhu
Ti flánu ta faze majiâ
Ta poi grógu ta bira vinhu
Mintira pom di kada dia
Verdádi ka s'ta kontádu
Nós tudu bira só finjidu
Ku kombérsu di dimagojiâ
Vida bira simplismenti
Konsedju bira ka ta obidu
Tudu é agu na balai frádu
É rialidádi di oxindiâ
Maioriâ sta tudu kontenti
Ku avontádi na dimokrasiâ
Fládu fla ka tem simenti
Dipós di sábi móre é ka náda
Inglés bem toma si tchom
Sam-fransisku bira más sábi
M-kré odja róstu-nhu djom
Ta ri ku si kumpadri
Dja skesedu di pepé lópi
Bá rabuskádu nhu diogu gómi
Rasusitádu nhu kraveru lópi
Ka ta konxedu inásia gómi
Ali bem témpu ditádu-nhu náxu
Ta bira sima juís di mininu
Gentis djunta grita abáxu
É kabésa ki dja perde tinu

Dimocracy

I sing of democracy
My people stood together
They finally understood
And we all became wise
Each one with his own voice
Round circles became square
Each one with his own theory
Then together they fell apart
The good man became evil
The wolf became a lamb
This one practices magic
And then rum becomes wine
Lies are told every day
Truth is not spoken
We have all become pretenders
With demagogic conversations
Life has become simple
Advice is no longer obeyed
Everything is in ruins
This is a shocking reality
Most people are content
With a desire for democracy
They don't realize the danger
Ignorance is bliss
English is well respected
San Francisco has become wiser
I see you with your cronies
You've forgotten about your people
You've wasted a lot of time
Go scavenge, you lazy bum
You're a cunning thief
You're not a respected leader
You've spent too much time in exile
You've become like a child's toy
People gather below
He's lost his mind
