2010南非世界盃主題曲:Waving Flag
2010年世界盃將於6月份在南非舉行,本次主題曲演唱者是索馬里最著名的饒舌歌手K'naan,這首Waving Flag節奏輕鬆隨意,沒有上屆世界盃主題曲Time Of Our Lives那樣恢弘而沉靜,倒是多了許多熱鬧的氣氛。
Artist:K'naan
Song:Waving Flag
原唱版本
When I get older, I will be stronger
當我長大以後,我會變得更強
They’ll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag
我會獲得自由,就像飄揚的旗幟
And then it goes back, and then it goes back
然後它回到過去,然後它回到過去
Born to a throne, stronger than Rome
生在國王的寶座上,比羅馬還要強大
But violent prone, poor people zone
到處都是暴力,和窮人區
But it’s my home, all I have known
但它是我的家,我所知道的全部
Where I got grown, streets we would roam
在我成長過的地方,在我曾經徘徊過的街上
But out of the darkness, I came the farthest
但是穿過黑暗,我走得最遠
Among the hardest survival
在最艱難的生存中
Learn from these streets, it can be bleak
從這些街道上學到的東西,可能是令人絕望的
Except no defeat, surrender retreat
但是從不投降,也不接受失敗
So we struggling, fighting to eat and
所以我們掙扎著,為一口食物而鬥爭
We wondering when we’ll be free
我們也期待著當我們獲得自由的時候
So we patiently wait, for that fateful day

It’s not far away, so for now we say

When I get older, I will be stronger

They’ll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag

And then it goes back, and then it goes back

And then it goes back
重新開始
So many wars, settling scores

Bringing us promises, leaving us poor

I heard them say, love is the way
我聽到他們說,愛是唯一的辦法
Love is the answer, that’s what they say,
愛就是答案,這就是他們所說的
But look how they treat us; make us believers
但是看看他們怎麼對待我們;讓我們相信
We fight their battles, then they deceive us
我們為他們而戰,卻被他們所騙
Try to control us, they couldn’t hold us

Cause we just move forward like Buffalo Soldiers
