Shakira: Waka Waka (This time for Africa)

You're a good soldier

Choosing your battles

Pick yourself up

And dust yourself off

And back in the saddle

You're on the frontline

Everyone's watching

You know it's serious

We're getting closer

This isnt over

The pressure is on

You feel it

But you've got it all

Believe it

When you fall get up

Oh oh...

And if you fall get up

Oh oh...

Tsamina mina

Zangalewa

Cuz this is Africa

Tsamina mina eh eh

Waka Waka eh eh

Tsamina mina zangalewa

This time for Africa

Listen to your god

This is our motto

Your time to shine

Dont wait in line

Y vamos por Todo

People are raising

Their Expectations

Go on and feed them

This is your moment

No hesitations

Today's your day

I feel it

You paved the way

Believe it

If you get down

Get up Oh oh...

When you get down

Get up eh eh...

Tsamina mina zangalewa

This time for Africa

Tsamina mina eh eh

Waka Waka eh eh

Tsamina mina zangalewa

Anawa aa

Tsamina mina eh eh

Waka Waka eh eh

Tsamina mina zangalewa

This time for Africa

優(yōu)秀的士兵

快振作起來

撣掉你身上的灰塵

跨著戰(zhàn)馬

投入戰(zhàn)斗

你就在前線

大家都注視著你

你知道這不是開玩笑

戰(zhàn)斗越來越激烈

離結(jié)束還早著呢

雖然壓力很大

但相信我

你會勝利的

如果你跌倒就再站起來

加油！加油！

因為這里是非洲

加油！加油！

這一刻屬于非洲??！
