Democracy

Dimokránsa

Singing about democracyKantádu ma dimokrasiâ
It's all confusedMa stába sukundidu
Everything is clearMa tudu dja sai na kláru
And we all become wiseI nós tudu dja bira sabidu
Each one with their maniaKada um ku si maniâ
Talking in circlesFla rodóndu bira kuadrádu
Each one with their theoryKada um ku si tioriâ
Putting reasons on their sidePoi razom pendi di si ládu
Manuel becomes a liarTi manel bira mambiâ
The wolf becomes a little sheepTi lobu bira xibinhu
The sly one does magicTi flánu ta faze majiâ
And the rum becomes wineTa poi grógu ta bira vinhu
Lies every dayMintira pom di kada dia
Truth is not toldVerdádi ka s'ta kontádu
We all become mere pretendersNós tudu bira só finjidu
With a conversation of demagogueryKu kombérsu di dimagojiâ
Life simply becomesVida bira simplismenti
Advice is not followedKonsedju bira ka ta obidu
Everything is water in a fraudulent broomTudu é agu na balai frádu
It's the reality of oxenÉ rialidádi di oxindiâ
Most are all happyMaioriâ sta tudu kontenti
With daring in democracyKu avontádi na dimokrasiâ
Talking says there's no sentimentFládu fla ka tem simenti
After knowing death is nothingDipós di sábi móre é ka náda
English takes its little bitInglés bem toma si tchom
San Francisco becomes wiserSam-fransisku bira más sábi
I want to see the face of the young manM-kré odja róstu-nhu djom
Laughing with his friendTa ri ku si kumpadri
Already tired of the foolishnessDja skesedu di pepé lópi
Going to look for the wise manBá rabuskádu nhu diogu gómi
Resurrected like a crazy manRasusitádu nhu kraveru lópi
Not understanding the foolishnessKa ta konxedu inásia gómi
There, time wasted like a foolAli bem témpu ditádu-nhu náxu
Becomes like a child's judgeTa bira sima juís di mininu
People gather shouting downGentis djunta grita abáxu
It's the head that has lost its mindÉ kabésa ki dja perde tinu
