English Lyrics (as per google) On the city, the sleeping city A vulture hovered in the night And in his voice, yes in his dismal voice He disturbed the silence of the night And all the men, still sleepy Arise, like the cry of an alarm And the vulture resumed its flight He left I don't know where. Chorus : The African sky was so serene African soil knew peace Since that day, weapons have stood Yes since that day men have fought. The next day, always at the same time Over a hundred vultures hovered during the night And on the trees, around the village They perched waiting for the morning They surprised the whole city And ravaged everything in the way They knew how to deceive vigilance Brave guards who watched over the village Chorus : The African sky was so serene African soil knew peace Since that day, weapons have stood Yes since that day men have fought. Since then, the peoples of Africa Still looking for what they lost Most expensive in the world Disappeared with vultures And every evening Around the wood fire, The sounds of tom-tom rise in the sky We are still looking The untraceable treasure That the vultures have taken away.
Comrade this is the song i've listen thé most to, and this since his release. Please never ever put it down, it would bé thé drama of my life. Awesome work, I say this with a little tears in thé corner of my eyes
Sur la cité, la cité endormie Un vautour a plané dans la nuit Et de sa voix, oui de sa voix lugubre Il a troublé le silence de la nuit Et tous les hommes, encore ensommeillés Se sont dressés, comme au cri d’une alarme Et le vautour a reprit son vol Il est repartit je ne sais où. Refrain : Le ciel d’Afrique était si serein Le sol d’Afrique connaissait la paix Depuis ce jour, les armes se sont dressées Oui depuis ce jour les hommes se sont battus. Le lendemain, toujours à la même heure Plus de cent vautours ont plané dans la nuit Et sur les arbres, autour du village Ils se sont perchés attendant le matin Ils ont surpris toute la cité Et ravagé tout sur le passage Ils ont su tromper la vigilance Des braves gardes qui veillaient sur le village Refrain : Le ciel d’Afrique était si serein Le sol d’Afrique connaissait la paix Depuis ce jour, les armes se sont dressées Oui depuis ce jour les hommes se sont battus. Depuis ce temps, les peuples de l’Afrique Recherchent encore ce qu’ils ont perdu Ce qu’ils avaient de plus cher au monde A disparu avec les vautours Et tous les soirs Autour du feu de bois, Les sons de tam-tam s'élèvent dans le ciel On recherche encore L'introuvable trésor Que les vautours ont emporté.
On the city, the sleeping city A vulture hovered in the night And with his voice, yes, with his gloomy voice. He has disturbed the silence of the night... And all the men, still asleep Reared up, as if at the sound of an alarm... And the vulture flew again He's gone somewhere else. Refrain: The African sky was so serene The soil of Africa knew peace Since that day, the guns have stood up... Yes, since that day the men have been fighting. The next day, still at the same time. More than a hundred vultures hovered in the night... And on the trees around the village They roosted up and waited for the morning They surprised the whole city And ravaged everything in the way They've been able to deceive the vigilance Brave guards who watched over the village... Refrain: The sky of Africa was so serene The soil of Africa knew peace Since that day, the guns have stood up... Yes, since that day the men have been fighting. Since that time, the peoples of Africa Are still searching for what they've lost The most precious thing they had in the world... Disappeared with the vultures And every night Around the wood fire, Drum sounds rise up into the sky We're still looking for The untraceable treasure Which the vultures have taken away.

I speak French and this song just makes me so sad, all about how Imperialism destroyed Africa.
Using this to learn French, I want to learn it by choice, not by force
Imperialism and colonialism is still threatening Africa it must be stopped
Translation?
@@andreimedrea6499 Exactly! China is now Africa's biggest threat
@@science_is_fake_and_gay2710 wow. Everything you said was wrong.
English Lyrics (as per google)
On the city, the sleeping city
A vulture hovered in the night
And in his voice, yes in his dismal voice
He disturbed the silence of the night
And all the men, still sleepy
Arise, like the cry of an alarm
And the vulture resumed its flight
He left I don't know where.
Chorus :
The African sky was so serene
African soil knew peace
Since that day, weapons have stood
Yes since that day men have fought.
The next day, always at the same time
Over a hundred vultures hovered during the night
And on the trees, around the village
They perched waiting for the morning
They surprised the whole city
And ravaged everything in the way
They knew how to deceive vigilance
Brave guards who watched over the village
Chorus :
The African sky was so serene
African soil knew peace
Since that day, weapons have stood
Yes since that day men have fought.
Since then, the peoples of Africa
Still looking for what they lost
Most expensive in the world
Disappeared with vultures
And every evening
Around the wood fire,
The sounds of tom-tom rise in the sky
We are still looking
The untraceable treasure
That the vultures have taken away.
...jesus. 🥺
the imagery it paints
Enchantingly dark
@@kontankarite yup and Jesus did it
A true proletarian hero, thank you friend.
Too good for this world

Feel like shit, just want him back x

Hey Sankara. I hope you are happy with all the progress we are doing. Sorry you died dude.
I’ve heard that he had died violently
Nice
Sur la cité, la cité endormie
Un vautour a plané dans la nuit
Et de sa voix, oui de sa voix lugubre
Il a troublé le silence de la nuit
Et tous les hommes, encore ensommeillés
Se sont dressés, comme au cri d’une alarme
Et le vautour a reprit son vol
Il est repartit je ne sais où.
Refrain :
Le ciel d’Afrique était si serein
Le sol d’Afrique connaissait la paix
Depuis ce jour, les armes se sont dressées
Oui depuis ce jour les hommes se sont battus.
Le lendemain, toujours à la même heure
Plus de cent vautours ont plané dans la nuit
Et sur les arbres, autour du village
Ils se sont perchés attendant le matin
Ils ont surpris toute la cité
Et ravagé tout sur le passage
Ils ont su tromper la vigilance
Des braves gardes qui veillaient sur le village
Refrain :
Le ciel d’Afrique était si serein
Le sol d’Afrique connaissait la paix
Depuis ce jour, les armes se sont dressées
Oui depuis ce jour les hommes se sont battus.
Depuis ce temps, les peuples de l’Afrique
Recherchent encore ce qu’ils ont perdu
Ce qu’ils avaient de plus cher au monde
A disparu avec les vautours
Et tous les soirs
Autour du feu de bois,
Les sons de tam-tam s'élèvent dans le ciel
On recherche encore
L'introuvable trésor
Que les vautours ont emporté.
Omg this is amazing and vibing
I'm so glad this wasn't that dumb Toto song.
Make on about Al Assad
Better than the original... but only just.
Spooky bruv
On the city, the sleeping city
A vulture hovered in the night
And with his voice, yes, with his gloomy voice.
He has disturbed the silence of the night...
And all the men, still asleep
Reared up, as if at the sound of an alarm...
And the vulture flew again
He's gone somewhere else.
Refrain:
The African sky was so serene
The soil of Africa knew peace
Since that day, the guns have stood up...
Yes, since that day the men have been fighting.
The next day, still at the same time.
More than a hundred vultures hovered in the night...
And on the trees around the village
They roosted up and waited for the morning
They surprised the whole city
And ravaged everything in the way
They've been able to deceive the vigilance
Brave guards who watched over the village...
Refrain:
The sky of Africa was so serene
The soil of Africa knew peace
Since that day, the guns have stood up...
Yes, since that day the men have been fighting.
Since that time, the peoples of Africa
Are still searching for what they've lost
The most precious thing they had in the world...
Disappeared with the vultures
And every night
Around the wood fire,
Drum sounds rise up into the sky
We're still looking for
The untraceable treasure
Which the vultures have taken away.
Amazing ❤🎉
Loved it
