Africa, Africa...
Africa, Africa...
Now the time has come
Now the time has come
For all the games to start
For all the games to start
For all to meet again
For all to meet again
With love and peace again
With love and peace again
We gather heart to heart
We gather heart to heart
In brotherhood of men
In brotherhood of men
It's time to celebrate,
It's time to celebrate,
Rejoice and become one
Rejoice and become one
Nous voilà, enfin
Here we are finally
Sans barrières d'espace,
With no barriers of space
Sans barrières de temps,
With no barriers of time
Ensemble, revenus
Together we are back
L'amour est notre lien
Love is our bond
La paix est notre foi
Peace is our faith
En joie, nous célébrons
In joy we celebrate
La splendeur de nos jeux
the splendor of our games
يالالالي ويا لالالي
Oh la la la,
بالحب اتجمعنا
Through love we have become united
والدنيا هتسمعنا
And the world will hear us
والليلة أول اعيادنا
And tonight is the first night of our feasts
آدي طريق امجادنا
Here is the path of our glory
وادي السمر ولادنا
Here are our swarthy sons
وادي القاهرة وادي بلدنا
And here is Cairo and here is our country
نقولها تاني
Let's say it again
بالحب اتجمعنا
Through love we have become united
والدنيا هتسمعنا
And the world will hear us
والليلة أول اعيادنا
And tonight is the first night of our feasts
آدي طريق امجادنا
Here is the path of our glory
وادي السمر ولادنا
Here are our swarthy sons
وادي القاهرة وادي بلدنا
And here is Cairo and here is our country
