Blue Hearts

Khol bu lèr

A bird woke me up this morning
To sing me a little song
To tell me some stories of
Children with blue hearts, warning me
And too many unheard still
Too many crying, no dignity
I don't look away no more, mm
We don't look away no more

Ah-ah, ah-ah, I sing for life, for rights
For the children with no voice
For the soldiers with blue hearts
We sing

I want love in my life, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
On the heart of a child you're blind to
Pour some light on a child with the blue heart
Flows of us lost at sea
But we're still fighting for our peace
Our freedom must come
Protection for the smuggled hearts

Little girl calling inside of me
She's got a blue heart and a voice
That won't be heard by the world, oh
Too many years, the world's gone mad
I'm an eight year old begging for money
On the streets of Dakar tonight
I'm runnin' away from the Daara
Though, I've got no plans

Ah-ah, ah-ah, I sing for life, for rights
For the children with no voice
For the soldiers with blue hearts
We sing

I want love in my life, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
On the heart of a child you're blind to
Pour some light on a child with the blue heart
Flows of us lost at sea
But we're still fighting for our peace
Our freedom must come
Protection for the smuggled hearts

We're living out of our bruised hearts, ah-ah-ah
We're living out of our blue hearts, ah-ah-ah
We're living out of our miracle hearts, a-ah, a-a-ah

Khol bu lèr
Khol bu lèr
Souniou kholeyi dioyenaniou
Te dakkal diayoum domou adama yi
(Te dakkal diayoum domou adama yi)
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
A-ah, khol bu lèr

I want love in my life, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
On the heart of a child you're blind to
Pour some light on a child with the blue heart
Flows of us lost at sea
But we're still fighting for our peace
Our freedom must come
Protection for the smuggled hearts

We're living out of our bruised hearts, ah-ah-ah
We're living out of our blue hearts, ah-ah-ah
We're living out of our miracle hearts, a-ah, a-a-ah

You know, I've been dreaming of children, uh-uh
Let's do right by the children of the sky, ah-ah-ah
And how much longer?
When will it be over? Ah-ah
Let the doves find their sun
