You’re a good soldier 
Choosing your battles 
Pick yourself up 
And dust yourself off 
Get back in the saddle 
You’re on the front line 
Everyone’s watching 
You know it’s serious 
We’re getting closer 
This isn’t over 

The pressure’s on; you feel it 
But you got it all; believe it 
When you fall, get up, oh oh 
And if you fall, get up, eh eh 
Tsamina mina zangalewa 
Cause this is Africa 
Tsamina mina eh eh 
Waka waka eh eh 
Tsamina mina zangalewa 
This time for Africa 

Listen to your god; this is our motto 
Your time to shine 
Don’t wait in line 
Y vamos por todo 
People are raising their expectations 
Go on and feel it 
This is your moment 
No hesitation 

Today’s your day 
I feel it 
You paved the way, 
Believe it 
If you get down 
Get up oh, oh 
When you get down, 
Get up eh, eh 

Tsamina mina zangalewa 
This time for Africa 
Tsamina mina eh eh 
Waka waka eh eh 
Tsamina mina zangalewa 
Anawa aa 
Tsamina mina eh eh 
Waka waka eh eh 
Tsamina mina zangalewa 
This time for Africa
