Ni inde yomenya igituma abana
Bavuka cokimwe bagakura batangana
Nobody can explain that, it's a mystery
Yoba ariyo mpamvu yo kuba sindabibazwa
Kandi abo bana bagorwa ataco bazira
Kubera ububegito bw'abantu bayuba
Bafata minenerwe kazoza k'abana
We don't realize what we do
Ehe izo nzoya zibura amata
Iyo micuko ibura ikiyiraba
Nabo bose batajanwa kwishure
Bihereza ibarabara bangara
Yooh baburara, babwirirwa biberaho nabi
Tubaraba twigendera nkuko natwe tutavyaye
Ladies and gentlemen
Save the children
If you live in the world
Save the children
You know you are a human
Save the children
Everywhere you go
Save the children
Saaave, save the children
Saaave, save the children
Watoto wa Africa wanaumia sana
Save those children
Ni inde yomenya igituma abana
Bakora ibikorwa bigenewe abakuze
What a pity! It's a shame
Yoba ari ukutamenya agateka kabo
Kubera abantu bubu biyumvira inyungu zabo
Bobo bahitanwa ninrwara
Bagashirwa imbere mu nrwano z'umwotsi
That's the worst that ever
In Africa wanateswa Kenya na Bongo
Sitapata lakusema Somalia Sudan
Ninatoa machozi Burundi na Congo
Na huko mbali Haiti
Dunia yote ina shida
Unless you are so blind
You can't see what is happening in this world nowadays
Everytime, everymoment the worst is around
Those children they are homeless
They are starving to death
Ladies and gentlemen
Save the children
If you live in the world
Save the children
You know you are a human being
Save the children
Everywhere you go
Save the children
Saaave, save the children
Saaave, save the children
Save save save save
Save save save save
Save the children
Save save save save
Save save save save
Translation
Who knows why children
Are born in the same and grow up differently
Nobody can explain that, it's a mystery
Would it be the reason to be irresponsible?
While those children suffer innocently
Because of the recklessness of careless people
Who neglect the future of children
We don't realize what we do
Look on those small babies who can't get milk
Those babies who don't have care
And all those who are not taken to school
They roam and wander in the street
Spend nights and days without meals, live miserably
They beg us that they are dying with hunger
We look at them, we leave them as if we didn't have kids
Ladies and gentlemen
Save the children
If you live in the world
Save the children
You know you are a human
Save the children
Everywhere you go
Save the children
Saaave, save the children
Saaave, save the children
African children are very suffering
Save those children
Who knows why children
Do the works reserved to adults
What a pity! it's a shame
Would it be the ignorance of their rights
Because nowadays people think about their own profits
Them, they die of diseases
They are put in front during smoke wars
That's the worst that ever
In Africa they suffer in Kenya and Tanzania
I will not find what to say in Somalia, Sudan
I cry for Burundi and Congo
And there far away in Haiti
The whole world has trouble
Unless you are blind
You can't see what is happening in this world nowadays
Everytime, everymoment the worst is around
Those children they are homeless
They are starving to death
Ladies and gentlemen
Save the children
If you live in this world
Save the children
You know you are a human being
Save the children
Everywhere you go
Save the children
Saaave, save the children
Saaave, save the children
Save save save save
Save save save save
Save the children
Save save save save
Save save save save
