Africa is a river it flow so wide
Carry di spirits weh time cyaan hide
Roots dem deep like a tree weh grow tall
Echoes of di ancestors dem still call
Africa rise up di drumbeat strong
Flow like a river where we belong
Wisdom of di ages cyaan done
Shine like di moon an di morning sun
Dem say di lion sleep but mi know it roar
Through di mountains to di ocean shore
History weh written pon di land and sky
Africa a di reason mi heart cyaan lie
Zion gates open mi seh walk thru
Di river a guide yuh mi seh dis true
From di Nile to di Congo mi people rise
Di heartbeat of di earth inna we eyes
Africa rise up di drumbeat strong
Flow like a river where we belong
Wisdom of di ages cyaan done
Shine like di moon an di morning sun
Di river flow with di stories untold
Carry di fire mek di spirit bold
No matter how di tide may twist an turn
Africa a di flame weh always burn
