Ismaël Lô Lyrics
Mane waibi mai wai kip anaka soma bil khol

Mane waibi mai wai kip anaka soma bil khol
Dikowel kapa kudi sokhna so bil kel
Kon sokhna buru keureum de (sokhna buru keureum de)
Aiwa
Mane waibi mai wai kip anaka soma bil khol
Dikowel kapa kudi sokhna so bil kel
Mane waibi mai wai kip anaka soma bil khol
Dikowel kapa kudi sokhna so bil kel
Kon sokhna buru keureum de (sokhna buru keureum de)
Aiwa

Lyrics selon le site Genius
Faut pas rêver c’est plus la peine
Faut plus se mentir
Jouer des scènes
La seule réponse à tous nos problèmes
Faut qu’on s’aime
Toutes nos histoires où ça nous mène
Des cris des larmes c’est tout ce qu’on sème
C’est le moment de changer de rengaine
Faut qu’on s’aime
C’est si ça ne tient qu’à nous
Faut qu’on s’aime
C’est ça d’abord avant tout
Faut qu’on s’aime
Faut qu’on s’aime…
On se fait des bleus
On se fait des scènes
Sécher nos yeux ça vaut la peine
Est-ce qu’on va rester toujours les mêmes ?
Faut qu’on s’aime
Qu’est-ce qu’on attend pour se plaire ?
Pour enterrer nos haches de guerre
La seule réponse à tous nos problèmes
Faut qu’on s’aime
Si ça ne tient qu’à nous
Faut qu’on s’aime
C’est ça d’abord avant tout
Faut qu’on s’aime
On peut faire ça pour vous
Faut qu’on s’aime…

Yet in your country your people spit on black people. Hypocritical of you.

Le continent a visité absolument c'est l'Afrique , un peuple hors du commun, le berceau de la joie de vivre, l'hospitalité, la musique la danse, la famille le partage, la débrouillardise tout ça dans la joie et la bonne humeur, l'exemple pour toute l'humanité. Vive l'Afrique
