Peace That we are European or African, That we are Asian or American, What we must have is peace At any price, we will pay for peace Children of Africa, children of We children of the world, we hardly want We want peace, peace in Casamance For our brothers who are always in violence, Who always live in sadness Who soon want to find happiness Who are always afraid of walking on mines. In their village, reign there terror and famine. Every day, innocents shed tears Because of weapons. Men and women are dying Leaving children who cry. Oh! Mama Africa, do you know why? Why your children kill each other? Why an African Kills his African brother? Children of Because only unity is strength. Let’s live in peace Because development can only be made in peace Let’s be strong For a united and strong
AIDS Oh my God what is this illness? What is this incurable illness? This fatal illness Oh AIDS Because of you my life is meaningless No! Now I’m lifeless Because all my parents left me My father, my mother My sisters and brothers They all left me Every day I see death close to me Oh AIDS, I have to bear you without aid Now I regret thing that I have done But it’s too late to regret If only I knew then what I know now It’s better to prevent than to cure.
