Shakira and Freshlyground - Waka Waka (This Time For Africa)

You're a good soldier
Choosing your battles
Pick yourself up and dust yourself off and back in the saddle
You're on the front line
Everyone's watching
You know it's serious we're getting closer, this isn't over

The pressure is on
You feel it
But you've got it all
Believe it

When you fall get up oh, oh
And if you fall get up eh, eh

Tsamina mina zangalewa
'Cause this is Africa

Tsamina mina eh, eh
Waka waka eh, eh
Tsamina mina zangalewa
This time for Africa

Listen to your God
This is our motto
Your time to shine don't wait in line y vamos por todo
People are raising
Their expectations
Go on and feed them this is your moment no hesitations

Today's your day
I feel it
You paved the way
Believe it

If you get down get up oh, oh
When you get down get up eh, eh

Tsamina mina zangalewa
This time for Africa

Tsamina mina, eh, eh
Waka waka, eh, eh
Tsamina mina zangalewa
Anawa, a, a
Tsamina mina, eh, eh
Waka waka, eh, eh
Tsamina mina zangalewa
This time for Africa

Abuyil'amajoni piki piki mama from A to Z
Bathi susa lamajoni piki piki mama from East to West
Bathi waka waka ma, eh, eh
Waka waka ma, eh, eh
Zonk'izizwe mazibuye
'Cause this is Africa (Africa, Africa Africa)

Tsamina mina
