Wale Watu [English translation]

Place of the world

Place of Paris or of Rome

It has poor people

They neither cry nor demand charity

They accept their destiny

That people sings

Even when they sleep with empty stomachs

It is thus so . . . every day

Stop speaking for nothing

Complaining about your own fortune

You do not know true misery

Look at that people over there

They neither cry nor demand charity

That people sings

Even when they sleep with empty stomachs

Truly stop

Thinking like you

You ought to know

Their life

Because we also

Are not so far from them

We can give them a hand

Every day
