Have you seen the Rivers in Africa
They bring warmth, health and strength
It flows in my veins, Red and Hot
The blood of our Heart, beats like its Drums
Can you see when the sun rises up
As the grasses and leaves stretches forth
To their full length in glorious entity
To enjoy the warming power of love
I woke up, behold a wonderful new day!
Oh, my Mother Africa, our skins are black
And our hearts tough, clothed with strength
As our whole life, filled with His endless grace
In the Night sky, our warriors shine
The stars never ceases to end for us
For the fountain of youth is here
Drink, drink, the waters of my beloved Africa
You would find none sweeter nor better
African waters, is our life and hope always
Ah! Come see, come behold, come love
The Africa that I see and am proud off.

The Train
Sitting here watching the trees and leaves
Grasses and flowers skipping backwards
As I plunge forward, onward to my destination
Gentle and steadily I move one more meter
How beautiful the countryside looks
Sweeping beauty as I see the farmers work
Shhh that was the sound of the horn
Cars, lorries and animals stop as we pass by
Farm children and adults wave
Slowly from town to town we reach
And cities to cities we cross
Outside, is hot because its summer
Yet inside my train is cool
For the air conditioner is working perfectly
I see farm stead and farm animals
The big and the small I take in all I see
Selfish and greedy you may say, but its true
I swallow all that I see
For behold the beauty of nature
Expanding right before my eyes unto infinity
The obvious oblivion, has taken hold of the unknown

Our Noble Cause
The leaders of our land, have deserted the noble cause
And the ways of the fathers before have gone astray
And leaders today have lost sight of that glouries vision
Which we once uphold and craved for as our golden eye
Today we flee the land of our noble and heritage birth
And sojurn into the land of the unknown and strange to us
Where we understand nothing, hopping, praying and looking
That the spirits of our fathers may guide and bless us
We have come from the far and wide, to seek refugee in thy land
We have crossed the great desserts and the temptest seas
We have lived on the wind and use the stars as guidance
Behold these eyes have seen the bottomless pits of life
Yet we stand here as noble as ever, men, women and children
We have come here to ask for your mercy, grace and loving kindness
That you might take pity on us and give us a place befitting to live
We are a strong people and the ability to work is in our blood
We have come with nothing but with a great spirit to survive
Here we are today, not yesterday, nor tomorrow, but right now
In request that you might grant us favour to live among thy brethren
And ply our trade as each man seem fit to understand

Liderii ţarii noastre, au părăsit cauza nobila
si modelul stramosilor înainte de a se rătăci
Şi liderii de astăzi au pierdut din vedere faptul că glorioasa viziune
Care ne sprijinea odată si dupa care ravnim ca dupa lumina ochilor nostri
Azi am parasit pământul mostenit al nobilei noastre nasteri
Si am calatorit spre un pamant necunoscut si ciudat pentru noi
Unde nu înţelegem nimic, sperand,, rugându-ne şi cautand
Pentru ca spiritele părinţilor noştri sa ne ghideze şi sa ne binecuvinteze
Noi am venit din lung si-n lat, să cautam refugiu în ţara ta
Am traversat marile deserturi şi furtunoasele mări
Am trăit purtati de vânt şi stelele ne-au fost calauze
Iată că acesti ochi au vazut prapastiile fara fund ale vietii
Cu toate acestea, stam aici, nobili ca intotdeauna, bărbaţi, femei şi copii
Am venit aici pentru a cere mila ta, harul si bunatatea iubitoare care sa ai mila de noi şi să ne dai un loc potrivit de locuire
Suntem un popor puternic şi cu capacitatea de munca este in sangele nostru
Am venit fara nimic, dar cu un puternic spirit de supravieţuire
Astazi suntem aici, nu ieri, nici maine, dar acum
În cererea de a primi dreptul de a trai printre ai tai
Si pentru a practica comertul asa cum fiecare om crede de cuviinta

Gladiator - Now We Are Free Music
"Ever had a feeling that came from beyond the mind?
Ever found that sometimes words are imperfect to articulate these feelings?
Whatever language we speak in, the invitation is always to transcend their meaning and feel them in the heart. "

Almighty Freedom
Almighty freer of the soul
Be free
Walk with me
Through the golden fields
So lovely
Lovely
We regret our sins, but...
We sew our own fate and
Under my face I remain feeble
Under my face, I smile
Aaahh)
Even alone/afraid
Under my face I will be waiting
Run with me now soldier of Rome
Run and play in the field with the ponies
Run with me now soldier of Rome
Run and play in the field with the ponies
Run with me now soldier of Rome
Run and play in the field with the ponies
Run with me now soldier of Rome
Run and play in the field with the ponies
Almighty Freedom
Almighty freeer of the soul
Be free
Be free
And imagine
Free with peace at last
It's lovely
It's lovely, this land
No one can believe or understand
How far I came just for my lovely family
I should have been there
with them when the world crashed down
But now they rest with me.
I'll never forget
How I felt that moment
I became free.

Madonna - Frozen [Official Music Video]
"Frozen Madonna"
You only see what your eyes want to see
How can life be what you want it to be
You're frozen
When your heart's not open
You're so consumed with how much you get
You waste your time with hate and regret
You're broken
When your heart's not open
Mmmmmm, if I could melt your heart
Mmmmmm, we'd never be apart
Mmmmmm, give yourself to me
Mmmmmm, you hold the key
Now there's no point in placing the blame
And you should know I suffer the same
If I lose you
My heart will be broken
Love is a bird, she needs to fly
Let all the hurt inside of you die
You're frozen
When your heart's not open
[chorus]
You only see what your eyes want to see
How can life be what you want it to be
You're frozen
When your heart's not open
[chorus, repeat]
If I could melt your heart
Street
the streets keeps calling us
pulling and tugging everyone
come here, come here it says
today would change your life
i look front and i look back
questioning and wondering
if today is that faithful day
when my world would change
look at its colours and see its lights
people hustling and bustling
sons and daughters of men
moving to and fro; to make it a day
yea! the sun is up, bright and smiling
its going to be a great day it says
as it gives light and warms the earth
blessing the human race with beauty
all around me, i see faces of mankind
happy and sad; in sorrow and joy
many fell by the wayside; yet many win
today is that day: my destiny has changed
