Neneh Cherry ft. Youssou Ndour 7 Seconds Lyrics

-Boul ma sene, boul ma guiss madi re nga fokni mane
Don't see me from a distance, don't look at my smile

-Khamouma li neka thi sama souf ak thi guinaw
And think that I don't know, what's under and beheind me

-Beugouma kouma khol oaldine yaw li neka si yaw
I don't want you to look at me and think

-mo ne si man, li ne si mane moye dilene diapale
What's in you is me, what's in me is to help them

Roughneck and rudeness,
We should be using, on the ones who practice wicked charms
For the sword and the stone
Bad to the bone
Battle is not over
Even when it's won
And when a child is born into this world
It has no concept
Of the tone the skin is living in
It's not a second
7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting
It's not a second
7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting X3

-j'a__ume les raisons qui nous poussent de changer tout,
I a__ume the resons that lead us to change everything,

-J'aimerais qu'on oublie leur couleur pour qu'ils esperent
I wish we could forget their color so they can hope

-Beaucoup de sentiments de races qui font qu'ils desesperent
lots of feelings for races which make them lose hope (despair)

-Je veux les deux mains ouvertes,
I want the two hands opened,

-Des amis pour parler de leur peine, de leur joie
(and) friends to talk about their life penalty, about their joy

-Pour qu'ils leur filent des infos qui ne divisent pas
so they can give'em infos that do not divide(scatter)

-Changer
change

7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting
It's not a second
7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting X3

And when a child is born into this world
It has no concept
Of the tone the skin is living in
And there's a million voices
And there's a million voices
To tell you what she should be thinking
So you better sober up for just a second

7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting

It's not a second
7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting
