The agouyadji is sounding[00:00:51]

Able bodied men rise up[00:00:55]

In today's world honor is becoming rare[00:01:05]

So let us examine our consciences[00:01:08]

And seek to refine our race[00:01:18]

Our language is not the least important factor[00:01:19]

In our dignity[00:01:24]

So let us learn it and let us teach it[00:01:25]

That will pay off[00:01:29]

From here to the Fouta Poular is spoken[00:01:38]

From Somalia to Mali[00:01:40]

From Benin to Guinea[00:01:43]

From Cameroon to Gambia[00:01:47]

From Egypt to Ethiopia they speak Poular[00:01:49]

If all these people came together[00:01:59]

They'd know we have the same mother[00:02:02]

Whatever the difference in our dialect[00:02:04]

We have the same father[00:02:14]

I called Coumba and Coumba replied[00:02:19]

I called Samba Samba replied likewise[00:02:22]

I used to believe those of us who speak Pulaar[00:02:29]

Were inferior but I realized I was wrong[00:02:44]

Let us be united[00:02:58]

From whichever part of the country we come[00:03:04]

We are all Senegalese[00:03:08]

If you go to Casmance they speak Diola[00:03:19]

Go to Cap Verde and you'll hear Lebou[00:03:23]

In St Louis the dialect is Wolof[00:03:33]

At Sine it is Serer[00:03:37]

If you address the Senegalese the Mandinkas will reply[00:03:38]

Or the Bassaris or the Halpoulars[00:03:49]

The Kassounkes the Manjacks or the Gnominkes[00:03:57]

Sayang Sayang Ibrahima Malick[00:04:04]

Malick Barou Sall you are a good friend[00:04:08]

Sayang Sissokho who comes from Mali[00:04:26]

Ibrahima Kalilloulaye[00:04:32]

Yangkou Ba my friend from the Gambia[00:04:33]

Malick Pathe Sow father of Pathe Sow[00:04:40]

My friend from Senegal[00:04:42]

Baaba Baidy Baaba Debbo from the Fouta[00:04:43]

Wherever we come from[00:04:47]

We are all Senegalese[00:04:56]

Ah it is late my dearest Mariama Dianke[00:05:01]

It is very late Mariama Soda Mama[00:05:16]

Marie don't be cross with me[00:05:22]

Dearest one be careful not to cross me[00:05:27]

Peace is all I want[00:05:36]

Don't ever take my love for granted[00:05:53]

I would never give you my love and then withdraw it[00:05:57]

If we break that trust our enemies will laugh at us[00:06:12]

For me all I want is peace[00:06:16]

Let us be of one mother[00:06:28]

Let us have one father[00:06:38]

Let us work together[00:06:45]

So that our country may prosper[00:06:49]

Mama[00:07:03]

Ah my son Oumar Malle[00:07:04]

My friend my little babe[00:07:11]

Oumar yoo Oumar[00:07:13]

Don't lose your temper with me[00:07:15]

Oumar Oumar Barou[00:07:23]

Don't be angry with me[00:07:24]
