Sweet woman child needn't cry anymore
Now we all know what you've known long before
Sad that it took all one's lifetime to see
Peace wanted just to be free
Strong man shall open your armor of fear
Your dreams of love is what brought this day here
Evil is lost and hate has decease, joy is of what we feast
For life can now live in world peace
sleep little war is over
the water and the wind will be with you
and then grow up small in united Africa
sleep that we are here
sleep we are with you
the dances and colors will return
they will always be with you
we will rediscover scents and flavors
little love
for every star that falls in the sky
a new love flourishes down there
children who run and play peace
and that no longer cry
and that no longer cry
Sweet woman child needn't cry anymore
Now we all know what you've known long before
Sad that it took a world lifetime to see
Peace wanted just to be free, peace wanted just to be free
Soldiers have put down their weapons of war
Never to touch them again
All through the love you can hear people say
Where fighting has come to an end
sleep little of new Africa
weapons and soldiers no longer scream
dreams of starlit night
sleep we are with you
sleep that we are here
sleep we are with you
Only among all we can make this a better place :)
