Have a clear mind
Be pure in your heart
Be sure in your actions
One day all the world's musicians will meet
Music has no frontiers

For there are too many weapons
And war is terrible
I have a vision of all Africa
Being united one day
Give me your hand
Give me one chance to know
What do you think,
For the future?
The young people are crying
Because the older ones are frightening them
That's what makes me sad
They are crying because
They have no hope

It's your day, Woman's Day
Turning the tide you are now on the incoming wave
Turning the tide you know you are nobody's slave
Find the brothers and sisters
who can hear all the truth in what you say
They can support you when you are on your way.
It's your day, Woman's Day
It's your day, Woman's Day

and want to be a child again
My past always comes back as in a mirror
Sometimes I look back to my past life
With regret or pride
When I'm around the children I love, I feel happy again
They dance, I guide them and express myself in suc
