"Afrika is joy, afrika is the red sunset, afrika is a paradise, afrika is sabor sabi...."
Afrika sabor sabi
Rubera ta curri
Rubera di cor vermejo
Na tchada coris ta fundi cu natureza
Calor trazi fogo na céu
Ta labanta, ta curri, curri, ta fla
Cor vermej, sabor sabi
Ê ess terra um
Sol quente Ta brilhá na nha pel
Um quentura ta quecem
Vida nov, mim ta crê
Pa ess terra pa sês gente
Qui ta passa fome necessidade
Afrika
nha mom m'ta estendê
Um natureza qui ta gritá ess riqueza
Nada ninguém pode na bô roubá
Podê estragá
Um cheir, um verde
Um céu, um sol
Qui ta estende, legra tud dia di manha
Quel parais qui el construi pa nôs
No bem legra, no bem juda nos afrika bem
Nos afrika
Criança, mudjeres, mocinhos
Afrika, afrika
Parais
Tont bô tem
Pa mostra, pa ensina
Ilumina ta brilha ness mund
Parais na oceon
Água quente
Dum azul
Qui ta fundi na sê céu
Nha coração ta batê
Afrika, afrika
Ess tesouro, ca perdêl
ca bô tcha esh manda na bô
Deus já bencoob
Pega sê mom
Afrika, parais, cor vermej, sabor sabi.
(ENGLISH)
Taste of Afrika
Rivers flowing
Red rivers flowing
In the mountains the colours fuse with nature
Heat brings fire in the sky
Get up, run, run, talk
Red colour, Good taste
Is this land
A hot sun that shines in my skin
A hot breeze , comforts me
A new life I wish for this land
For its people
That suffer hunger and necessity
Afrika
I reach my hand to you
A nature that screams its richness
Nothing and no one can steal from you
Can't break you
A smell, of green
A sky, a sun
That appears, that rejoices every morning
The paradise that He built for us
Let's remember, let's help our Afrika, Let's go
Our Afrika
Children, women, man
Afrika, Afrika
Paradise
So much you have
To show, to teach
Shine In this world
Paradise in the oceans
warm water
of such blue that fuses with its sky
My heart beats
Afrika, Afrika
This treasure, don't lose it
Don't you let anyone tell you what to do
God has already laid His blessing on you
Hold his hand
Afrika, paradise, red color of sunset, tastes good...
