Lyrics

Sud africaine
Sud africaine
Tes bijoux sonores
Brillent au nord du nord
Sud africaine
A cause d’une loi là-bas
Tu as dû quitter
Celui qui t’aimait
Dan un garçon qui avait du bleu entre les cils
Sous les grands baobabs à l’université
Maintenant tu comprends c’est facile
Tous ceux qui ont l’cœur en exil
Sud africaine
Sud africaine
Les tambours de guerre
Rythment notre terre
Sud africaine
Toi sans colère tu fais
S’envoler tes tresses
Mais n’oublie jamais
Dan il a de grands yeux clairs il aimait t'écouter
Tu ne veux pas pleurer car vous vous reverrez
Le futur brille entre les cils
De ceux qui ont l’cœur en exil
Toi qui sais que le bonheur
Est de toutes les couleurs
Tu vis de son courage
Il ne craint pas ta peur
Dan et toi vous ne renoncez pas
Dan il t’attendra tu vas pouvoir le retrouver
Tu ne veux pas pleurer car vous vous reverrez
Le futur brille entre les cils
De ceux qui ont l’cœur en exil
Il a de grands yeux clairs il aimait t'écouter
Tu ne vas pas pleurer car vous vous reverrez
Le futur brille entre les cils
De ceux qui ont l’cœur en exil

Lyrics translation

South Africa
South Africa
Your sound jewels
Shine to the north of the North
South Africa
Because of a law there
You had to leave.
The one who loved you
Dan a boy who had blue between his eyelashes
Under the big baobabs at the University
Now you understand it's easy
All those who have hearts in exile
South Africa
South Africa
The drums of war
Rhythm our Earth
South Africa
You without anger you do
Fly your braids
But never forget
Dan he has big clear eyes he loved to listen to you
You don't want to cry ' cause you'll see each other again
The future shines between the eyelashes
Of those who have hearts in exile
You who know that happiness
Is of all colors
You live on his courage
He's not afraid of you.
You and Dan don't give up
Dan he'll be waiting for you you'll be able to find him
You don't want to cry ' cause you'll see each other again
The future shines between the eyelashes
Of those who have hearts in exile
He has big clear eyes he loved to listen to you
You won't cry ' cause you'll see each other again
The future shines between the eyelashes
Of those who have hearts in exile
