Chorus
Etu tuanda ku tambula conta africa. (aftrica, we'll take care of you)
Balumukenu, balumukenu. (rise up)
I can see the world breaking down at my feet.
I can feel my heart chasing down my beat,
And I hear onile say hi!
Near me the green turns blue and light.
Near me my sight overcome my light
Then I hear onile and gaia say rise up.
Africa
Balumukenu, balumukenu (rise up)
Africa
Etu tuanda ku tambula conta africa. (aftrica, we'll take care of you)
Balumukenu, balumukenu (rise up)
Diamond skin they call me, and I dont know why.
Drums beats run my soul, and I'm feeling so high;
My eyes open; onile and gaia say rise up.
Africa
Balumukenu, balumukenu. (rise up)
Africa
Etu tuanda ku tambula conta africa. (aftrica, we'll take care of you)
Balumukenu, balumukenu. (rise up)
Tussangenu ngana tu bekele o ngoma yetu.
Tussangenu ngana tu bekele o ngoma yetu....ooohhhh.
Africa
Balumukenu, balumukenu. (rise up)
Africa
Etu tuanda ku tambula conta africa. (aftrica, we'll take care of you)
Balumukenu, balumukenu. (rise up)
