Africa Songtext
von Wonderboom

He was born in an African dawn,
An orphan to the land,
So gentle to the eye he was
Is any woman′s man.

(Afrika ko-ka-la ba-ngwele
Afrika ko-ka-la ba-ngwele wemah

Afrika ko-ka-la ba-ngwele
Afrika ko-ka-la ba-ngwele wemah ah la la)

As a truth people told him son,
Don't you trust anyone,
You learn how to trust a stone,
Learn how to be alone.

(Afrika ko-ka-la ba-ngwele
Afrika ko-ka-la ba-ngwele wemah

Afrika ko-ka-la ba-ngwele
Afrika ko-ka-la ba-ngwele wemah ah la la)


And, so he walked, through the passion of his land
Till at last he cried out
Can anybody hear me?
Can anybody hear me?
Can anybody hear me?

(Afrika ko-ka-la ba-ngwele
Afrika ko-ka-la ba-ngwele wemah

Afrika ko-ka-la ba-ngwele
Afrika ko-ka-la ba-ngwele wemah ah la la)

Yeah, the sand, as he walked through the dark
Hand in hand, hand in hand

(Afrika ko-ka-la ba-ngwele
Afrika ko-ka-la ba-ngwele wemah

Afrika ko-ka-la ba-ngwele
Afrika ko-ka-la ba-ngwele wemah ah la la)
Ah la la
Ah la la
