Little Child
Sinsemilia Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh little little child, I saw ina your eyes
Too hunger, fears and cries, cries fo, cries fo yo Africa
Oh little little child, yes I know it's hard sometimes
You're asking yourself why Jah made you live this life, live this life

What's the answer
for the african children ?
Where is this world of hope
for their future ?
What's the answer for the african children ?
Where is this world ...

Oh little little child, I'm sorry for my lies
But it was really too hard
To talk and break your heart
Break your heart

Let Jah bless African children
Let Jah bless African children

Oh little little child, man is getting too wild




So keep your faith on Jah
Yes solution stays in Jah
