Lyrics " Soweto "

Original text with translation

Soweto

Djavan

Original text

Kinshasa, Beirute

Maranhão

O negro que lute

Pra poder sonhar

Em mudar isso aqui

O poder tem tantas mãos

E só sabe mentir

Quanto mais se diz

E mais o povo quer

Eleição

Ninguém esperava ver

A terra estremecer

Com o apartheid

Deus salve Soweto

Carência e calor

Nos guetos

De cada canto do mundo

Meu amor

Com tantos assuntos

E eu a te adorar

Absurdo seria

Não pensar que é normal

Se armar todo dia

Para combater o mal

O povo votaria

E assim eu amarei

A serra, a mar é

O litoral

Deus salve Soweto

Subtrai de governo

Os que trairão

Esses não

Já tem gente demais

A querer mandar

O povo quer florescer

E ganhar a vida

Os que trairão

Esses não

Já tem gente demais

A querer mandar

O povo quer florescer

E ganhar a vida

Kinshasa, Beirute

Maranhão

O negro que lute

Pra poder sonhar

Em mudar isso aqui

O poder tem tantas mãos

E só sabe mentir

Quanto mais se diz

E mais o povo quer

Eleição

Ninguém esperava ver

A terra estremecer

Com o apartheid

Deus salve Soweto

Subtrai de governo

Os que trairão

Esses não

Já tem gente demais

A querer mandar

O povo quer florescer

E ganhar a vida

Os que trairão

Esses não

Já tem gente demais

A querer mandar

O povo quer florescer

E ganhar a vida

O povo quer florescer

E ganhar a vida

O povo quer florescer

E ganhar a vida

Song translation

Kinshasa, Beirut

maranhão

The black who fights

to be able to dream

In change this here

Power has so many hands

and only know how to lie

The more you say

And more the people want

Election

no one expected to see

the earth shake

With apartheid

God save Soweto

Deficiency and heat

in the ghettos

From every corner of the world

My love

with so many subjects

And I will adore you

would be absurd

don't think it's normal

Arm yourself every day

To fight the evil

The people would vote

And so I will love

The mountains, the sea is

the coast

God save Soweto

Subtract from government

those who will betray

These don't

there are already too many people

Wanting to send

The people want to flourish

And earn a living

those who will betray

These don't

there are already too many people

Wanting to send

The people want to flourish

And earn a living

And earn a living

The people want to flourish

And earn a living

The people want to flourish

And earn a living
