(Ouh ouh ouh ouh) (ouh ah ah)
Land of our ancestors you are loving (loving) and welcoming
Africa I love visiting you (visiting you) and living with you
Oh Mother Earth your borders open my arms (your borders open my arms)
Your heat warms my heart oh mother earth (your heat warms my heart)
Oh Mother Earth your colors make me happy
Africa you have freedom (you have freedom)
The wind chases the time away from our thoughts
The days lose their names (the days lose their names)
Nothing seems to disturb this playing field
Where children have fun and dance to the night (where children have fun)
Africa is a new world (a new world)
Where the birds of its countries sing
Africa is a new world (a new world)
Where the birds of its countries sing
I feel a strong divine presence like nowhere else (like nowhere else)
I see your solidarity the witness of your humanity
Everything I need is there before my eyes (before my eyes)
My heart is light and full of life
Africa (hmm aah) red gold and green
I hear (hmm aah) your rhythmic silence
And I perceive (ououououh) the deep singing of your lost villages (your lost villages)
Africa red gold and green
Your breath and your voice go through me (hmm aah)
And I feel in me the flavor of freedom
Africa is a new world (a new world)
Where the birds of its countries sing
Africa is a new world (a new world)
Where the birds of its countries sing yeah
