Lyrics:
Boul ma sene, boul ma guiss madi re nga fokni mane
Khamouma li neka thi sama souf ak thi guinaw
Beugouma kouma khol oaldine yaw li neka si yaw
mo ne si man, li ne si mane moye dilene diapale
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 - Hudba

Any one is listening in 2024 ??
A friend from Africa told me about this song. It should be re-released on the radio in America. The lyrics contain so much implicit and subliminal meaning to me.
Yes
Suuuure!!!! 🤗💗

Right here!!
If you are listening to this song right now, your brain is functioning well and you have great taste in music. Congratulations! Kisses from Italy.
🙂 Nah. Not really. I am however rather drunk.....

Indeed Youssou Ndour revolutionized African music not to say culture. As a Senegalese girl, it always gives me goosebumps while listening to his songs (old and new) let me just say I am proud of our interplanetary star. He is timeless ❤ 🇸🇳
Vous avez absolument raison. En France il est une référence absolue en matière musicale. Pour la jeunesse antiraciste de mon temps, il était dans les années 1980 la voix de l'Afrique. Dans le monde entier il est respecté. Longue vie à lui !
😂😂😂
Es un precioso mensaje a la humanidad ❤
He is a true revolutionist indeed!!! 👏👏👏
My dad used to play this song over n over for my mom and would go hug her so tight , telling her how much he loves and adores her . 20 some years later , I still remember those moments. That pure love between them is what kept me and my 4 other siblings away from hatred, negativity and racism . She passed away in 2006, he still plays the song. 16 years and he never remarried ❤️❤️🙏🙏
Love from Iran.

С годами только осознаешь,насколько эпоха юности была одарена талантливыми исполнителями,поистине выдающимися композициями. Песня просто шедевр, с магической таинственной силой
Просто, согласись, трек шикарный, я заебался танцевать
Полностью согласен. 80-е,90-е и начало 00-х это просто что-то нереальное было в музыке. А сегодня я уже забываю вчерашних исполнителей которые были популярны максимум полгода. А этой песне около 30 лет. И в детстве я её обожал. В 1996 году я пошёл в первый класс, и я эту музыку слушал тогда. Боже какое же прекрасное время мы оказывается жили. Люди были простыми в отношениях, никто ничего не требовал. Люди были людьми. А сегодня нас КАПИТАЛИЗМ РАЗРУШИЛ ИЗНУТРИ.
Топ песня, на кассете перемотывал
@@user-ie4yy3hq6uЭта прекрасная музыка пришла из капитализма, мозг..
Общество очень деградировало, слушаешь классическую музыку и диву даешься, как же безнадежно все ушло в небытие.
Rest in peace dad you loved this song. I hope your next life is better

"The Longing of a Dafa Follower
Leaving behind the land of China, I’m exiled in the West
Longing for my homeland
And thinking of the lady whom I love
Most people are Gods descended to the world
Waiting for the Creator to save them back to heaven
Modern notions and conduct are deceitful tricks of demons
Atheism and evolutionary theory are fanciful lies
To spread this truth widely
I am persecuted, displaced to foreign lands
2018, Summer
***
For You and All Beings
Wonderful times kept only in my memory
Warm breezes of love through so many days and nights
Persecution brings everything back to the first wish
Oppression makes you worry for me, tormented and restless
Most people are Gods descended to the world to await the Creator
Atheism and evolutionary theory are deceiving people
Modern notions and conduct are dead ends with no way out
The meaning of life is to return to heaven
To tell the truth to all beings
To keep you away from troubles
Wonderful times kept only in my memory
December 12, 2018
***
The Love of a Dafa Disciple
Returning to where we started-what other choice have I
Persecution is ongoing, I wish not to bring trouble to you
Let us part, so you will not be hurt
For I want to tell people where life’s meaning lies
Most people are Gods incarnate, awaiting the Creator
Atheism and evolutionary theory are destroying mankind
Modern notions and conduct are errors in life
For the salvation of you and the world’s people
I want to spread the truth all over China and beyond
December 23, 2018
***
No Other Choice
I met you on the journey of life
Love seeded in our hearts
Yet I am persecuted; to not bring you trouble
I left, for I had no other choice
Most people of the world are Gods incarnate
Awaiting the Creator’s salvation
Atheism and evolution are false doctrines
Modern notions and conduct are harming us
To spread this important message
I am persecuted, so we have to part
When the red tide falls, you and I shall meet again

As a kid born into poverty in one of the UK's most deprived cities ( Birmingham ) in the 80's this song really resonates with me on such a profound and emotional level and also with so many decent working class and ethnic minority kid's born into similar circumstances like mine that have encountered similar social and economic disadvantages during that period growing up in England kids who literally had nothing but hardship yet still aspired to work hard and educate themselves out of poverty ? It was tough , draining and challenging but i managed to do it thanks to surrounding myself with kids who were smarter and more ambitious than me and poor uneducated parents who worked hard for pittance and yet still pushed me to excel myself at school academically and now years later whenever i hear this track its quite soul destroying , tearful and sad to hear this track as its a prime example of how tough life is if your born into poverty and the odds are stacked against you.
Youre right ,from 🇸🇳

Used to listen to this song driving in the overloaded van going to school in The Gambia. Youssous language is Wollof! He is just saying "don't see me Smile and think that I do not know what is under and behind me" African metaphor for self consciousnesses. I wrote my first piece of poetry from this song way back when I was eleven! Meaningful Nostalgia now and forever!
Thank you. Beautiful words and beautiful language! Greetings from Mexico.
Modou Sanyang thank you for translating.
Nice to know! I work with 2 Gambian men here in Finland! They're so funny and good men. Without them my wrok would be boring
Thank you Modou,
He used also French in this song between 1.44 and 2.08 :
J'assume les raisons qui nous poussent de changer tout,
J'aimerais qu'on oublie leur couleur pour qu'ils esperent
Beaucoup de sentiments de race qui font qu'ils desesperent
Je veux les portes grandements ouvertes,
Des amis pour parler de leur peine, de leur joie
Pour qu'ils leur filent des infos qui ne divisent pas
Changer
Very beautiful song, very difficult to translate in English
... And in Wollof, I heard about it today
Thanks one more time Modou, and happy to speak with all the world so easily
The peace could arrive by this way only !!!
Beautiful song I used to listen to this in Africa when I was a Peace Corps Volunteer in Gabon.
J'assume les raisons qui nous poussent de changer tout,
J'aimerais qu'on oublie leur couleur pour qu'ils esperent
Beaucoup de sentiments de race qui font qu'ils desesperent
Je veux les portes grandements ouvertes,
Des amis pour parler de leur peine, de leur joie
Pour qu'ils leur filent des infos qui ne divisent pas
Changer
I assume why we push to change everything
I want to forget skin color for hope's sake
But too many strong feelings about race crush hope
I want to see the doors flung wide open
between friends to talk openly about all of their pains and joys
to let flow all information that (unites) won't divide us
The last line is very interesting. "let flow info that doesn't divide us" meaning "if we care enough to talk about our problems they won't be problems". The more we discourse the more we realize we are the same "au coeur". This is so true. The story of humanity is so sad, but it doesn't have to be this bad.
I feel my country is no longer deserving to lead the world as Trump supporters in America want to stop all serious discussions of race and actually strongly encourage anti-PC culture in order to "let flow the info that (divides us) won't unite us" .
It's 2024 and I'm still listening to this beautiful song

This song kind of triggers a not-quite-PTSD. I was in a serious car accident in the late nineties - there was chaos, severe injury and destruction everywhere but the radio kept playing this song. I was paralysed, upside down with this song playing. I occasionally come and listen for cathartic reasons.
So sorry you went through that. Hope you feelin better now?
I am happy that you are better now. 🙂
So glad you got through the trauma x
I'm so sorry, long life to you 😢
I am so sorry but so glad you got through the trauma. Wishing you the very best in your life. May your future be happy ! Sunny regards from Paris.

With this song, I danced with my newborn baby girl to calm her down because she had ear problems. Today he is 28 years old and he always reminds me that he loves this song
Me and my mom have the same story haha
Today she is 28 years old and she always reminds me that she loves this song*

Is ur baby a girl or a boy?

June 1, 2020. "The first positive 7 seconds in the life of a child is this special period of the child’s life they are saved from “not knowing about the problems and violence” present in the world. "-Neneh Cherry
Dude babies are born crying what are u talking about? The moment they are born they are in pain. They're crying their ass out and then get smacked on the ass. That's everyone's start in life. I don't know maybe its like symbolic that we all will suffer in life. And giving birth to a person is very painful in itself.
Life is pain. If anyone told you anything else, they are trying to sell u something.
We are trying to stay alive but the universe wants us dead anyway. That's why we die. It's the fate and destiny of all living beings. Pain exists because death exists. If we were not to die what would even bother us?
...idk what else to type lol
Jesus only 7 seconds? That ain’t long. Babies pick up on feelings from the mother and noises during pregnancy too, which can affect them after birth I believe.
Edit :Ok I misread this slightly, meaning maybe the first positive 7 seconds do not come straight away. Interesting nonetheless

@@user-zk4ch9kj8e про расовые предрассудки
@@user-zk4ch9kj8e Здравствуйте Александр. Вкратце - текст поднимает одновременно проблемы расизма и тот факт, что человек, только родившийся на свет, ещё не успевает, по понятным причинам, понять кто он такой и в чём его предназначение. Человек не выбирает, с каким цветом кожи рождаться, а потому очень легко клеймить его за это. В общим словах такой посыл. Песня звучит очень душевно и красиво, но её смысл вызывает грусть и сочувствие.

I came here just for nostalgia, but the lyrics made me think how much things have changed since 1997. I was brought up to look past the colour of people's skin, but now it seems that skin colour is the single most defining quality of a person. It feels like common humanity is now an outdated idea.
I'll just switch off the news and social media and live in the mist of nostalgia. It's an infinitely happier place.
Skin colour definitely is not the single most defining quality of a person. The only ones who perpetuate this idea are bigots, and misguided ideologues pretending to "correct" wrongdoing. The more we treat each other decently and judge based on character, the less relevant skin colour becomes other than a description and background.
I understand where you’re coming from. I used to think the goal was to be colorblind, but I’ve come to realize that I don’t think that’s the way I should think. One of things that makes our species so wonderful is the diversity of race and culture we have, especially where I live in the USA. I personally think the world and life in general would be very bland if everyone was the same. I now believe that it all starts with respect, love, and fairness toward one another as human beings. If we could achieve that, all injustice could be wiped out and the only thing left to do would be to enjoy and celebrate our diversity as the positive benefit that it is to our global community. I know it sounds idealistic and maybe even naive to some, but we must have goals to work towards. With few exceptions, our species has improved in almost every area with each passing decade and century. I don’t think it’s unrealistic to think that we will heal ourselves and create a world where justice is the norm and where injustice is a relatively rare and intolerable aberration against society as well as individuals. I think we are definitely moving in that direction.
There is a strong demonic influence in this world for such an undercurrent of hate to exist. Sometimes a spiritual person much retreat to their spiritual paradise to get a break from the onslaught of negativity...
Sadly even in 97 people were being treated badly because of the color of their skin. It is just that now the bigots are more loud/proud and much more blatant. We should celebrate and appreciate each other no matter the skin color. Don't have to be blind to one's skin color, just have to not judge someone because of it.
I love this song I've listened to this song since I was a child and i still receive chills down my spine listening to Youssou Ndour's enchanting voice , if your watching during April 2024 your a legend!!!
rapaz, até quando nunca tinha visto a letra, a voz dos dois juntos no refrão é de deixar qualquer um arrepiado, fora que a expressão do N'Dour é quase como o Zé Ramalho, você sente o sofrimento nas palavras mesmo sem entendê-las...

This song was my favourite on the day my eldest daughter was born in the summer of 1994... I loved the line 'and when a child is born into this world, it has no concept of the tone of skin it's living in'. She is a very balanced adult now in a caring profession but when I hear this, I remember the baby like it was yesterday
February 2024 where has the time gone??

Great son of Africa loving this hit from Zambia 🇿🇲🇿🇲🇿🇲
As nothing has really changed during my lifetime, this song will definitely on my last playlist. Hoping some much that future generations will never judge one on his color, looks, gender or whatever. Only judge on behavior
I watched them perform this song at Glastonbury festival 96 I believe. They brought the causeway to a standstill leading up to the jazz stage. I'll never forget it.
😅
Lucky you!

No
This song will be never forgotten. Magical interpretation and good music
I remember I had my radio by my window as a kid I’d hear this always ….so much nostalgia
I first heard this when I was 11 years old. As stated from the comments before myself, it is absolutely a timeless masterpiece. Just a beautiful piece of music that should never be forgotten. I'm 42 coming up now and it still gives me goosebumps. Woweee. Love it.
Youssou Ndour IS a legeng. Great voice of Africa
When a child is born, in to this world, it has no concept of the tone the skin is living in...powerful and beautiful words that many can learn from, love and peace......
Those words are soo real
Racism doesn't exist. Stop believing liberal lies...
@@wthwasthat8884 who says racism don't exist, just those words are so ponient
@@ikr2377 The fake news media talk about racism when liberals are the most racist. TRUTH!
You dont have to repeat everything its anoying
2000-е годы, без Интернета, ночь, мечты, бессоница, в ночном эфире по радио играет эта песня - это любовь на всю жизнь.
Да да да, именно так😍
I cry every time. It’s a good thing. It’s awakens me outta my narcissistic American coma. Chef-d'œuvre ! 🎼
Finding out shes Mabels mother bought me here, this song is a classic, good memories, happy new year to all 😍👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾❤️❤️❤️❤️
Not only a song a message too. Two beautiful voices bouncing off of each other, two different languages and a complete masterpiece!!
Im half English and French, so can appreciate both voices to the fullest.
The language is not French, its Wolof only spoken in Senegal (West Africa), The artist name is YoussouNdour.
And French, you are right.😀
C’est vrais 😊

Best track ever and so relevant to today ❤
Still listening to this amazing song 2024
Im pushing 40. Born and Raised in Romania and I grew up on this song . I didn’t have a concept of racism until I moved to the US at 15 and realized how evil some people are. I never understood the lyrics of this song until I came to the US. This song is absolutely beautiful.
La multi ani sanatosi, e trist ca exista din ce in ce mai mult rau in lumea asta
@@escapistfromhell1543 there would be no evil if all people of the world would stay where their roots are, where their ancestors always were, love and care about their land. Melting pot is a 100% wrong concept. Almost everything is wrong these days..
@@namelastname6744 are you low key shaming me for leaving my country ? Gtfo with that ! Thanks!
👏👏 show 🇷🇴🇷🇴🇷🇴🇷🇴🇷🇴
@@namelastname6744 I hope you understand that most nationalists hate their neighboring countries just because we are divided into ours and theirs. so no, nationalism is not the solution. we are all born on this planet and this planet is ours. the problem is that we are so spiritually backward as human species that instead of love and justice we are led by fear and greed
One of the world´s most beautiful songs EVER!!!
+Richie Daniel What year?
Totally.. I can keep listening to this song over and over and I never get sick of it. it takes me back to a happy place :)
Youssou es un monstruo de la música. Te envuelve en su voz y estas canciones dejan huella, dignifica en humanidad y en hacer sanar de un estado de ánimo. Neneh Cherry está a la altura haciendo historia con este clásico. Gracias por esta hermosa canción

The biggest line that affected Me personally is, (When a child is born it has no concept of the tone of skin it is living in). This is (to my mind) the most fundamental concept. It means that the child has no preconceptions . It is a total blank mind ready to be distorted by it's ? teachers.
Золотой хит на все времена 👏👏👏👏👏👏
До сих потрясает, потрясает исполнение и диалог🎉
I'm 40 and this is by far the most brilliant piece of music I have had the privilege to hear and still to this day, It'd have to be the most moving and inspiring song In history. In my opinion anyway
I'm sure you also like "in the mood for love" :)
I'm stepping closer to 70th yr of music. Eclectic, diversity of all since I purchased my 1st album at age 3
Still have the original purchase, & thousands collected after. Brilliant unique always seem to grow in magnificence with comparisons made of generations who were exposed yrs later to brilliance. Expanding the palate of knowledgeable art(s) openly available.
The best music bro
It's a great song for sure
im 5 years older than you and i cant make a list with music i like... is way too long...
Their voices together give me chills.
Me too! I commented on this song 4yr ago was amazed at how time quickly flys

Me too 🥺 I used to listen to it when I was in high school latest 90s and still feel the same since
Souvenirs extraordinaire sur le temps 🙏❤🥰😘😁☮ Toujours là génération NTM 1972
Nina voice is one of the best female voices I've ever heard
This beautiful song has such beautiful lyrics. I dedicate this to everybody who has humanity running through their veins and not about how rich they are or what colour or religion they are as we are all equal it's what you call humanity. I wish that we could all live in peace as life is very short 🥺
Thank you for this comment, and if everyone thinks a little further, at least most will come to the conclusion that ''Environmental, human and non human animal rights are all one fight !!'' 😌🤜🤛⚡️😎
Beautiful comment, if only we all felt the same...
@@janetjallow8508 thank you for your kind words my friend 🙏
best wishes from Turkey to all humanity.
1994 год я молодой и красивый на дискотеке в деревне, и вот звучит этот медляк! Я приглашаю понравившуюся девушку! Сердце замирает, чувства пронизывают каждую клетку, хочется обнять её крепче и признаться в своих чувствах!!! Музыка на все времена!!!!!!
Чувствую вашу дрожь 😘
В 1994 я в 3 класс ходил. Но песня все равно и сейчас актуальна для меня, хоть и не танцевал медлчсок под нее
Я надеюсь, вы поженились и сейчас живёте в любви и счастье)
Сколько вам лет сегодня?
Мне лично 55
Меня до сих пор в дрожь берет, я где то в облаках летаю в другом измерении ребята супер, я вас люблю
This song is timeless spaceless because it talks to the human soul irrespective of culture traditions and beliefs. Yes, i am part of March 2024
this has always been my brother's dog's favourite song... they're both in the music of the spheres, so I'm the only one who can play it for them
