Joseph rode in on a beam of light
Stray dogs to welcome in fights
Go build the cathedrals
The sight of the pilgrims gone nowhere
And millions of cars
They guise a dream in the distance
From promises he'd leave behind
When there was no harvest
He missed the sky and its circus
And countless, the stars
In Africa
The rivers are perfectly deep and beautifully wide
In Africa
The mothers will sing you to sleep
Say it's alright, child, it's alright
In Africa
We dance in the water and hold each other so tight
In Africa
The mothers will sing you to sleep
And say it's alright, child, it's alright
Joseph rode in on a beam of light
Dreamed of his queen by his side
There will be a beautiful sunset
And you'll be a beautiful bride
Joseph rode in on a beam of light
Joseph est arrivé sur un rayon de lumière
Stray dogs to welcome in fights
Des chiens errants l'accueillent dans des combats
Go build the cathedrals
Allez construire les cathédrales
The sight of the pilgrims gone nowhere
La vue des pèlerins qui ne vont nulle part
And millions of cars
Et des millions de voitures
They guise a dream in the distance
Ils déguisent un rêve au loin
From promises he'd leave behind
Des promesses qu'il laisserait derrière lui
When there was no harvest
Quand il n'y avait pas de récolte
He missed the sky and its circus
Il a manqué le ciel et son cirque
And countless, the stars
Et d'innombrables, les étoiles
In Africa
En Afrique
The rivers are perfectly deep and beautifully wide
Les rivières sont parfaitement profondes et magnifiquement larges
In Africa
En Afrique
The mothers will sing you to sleep
Les mères vous chanteront pour vous endormir
Say it's alright, child, it's alright
Disent que tout va bien, enfant, tout va bien
In Africa
En Afrique
We dance in the water and hold each other so tight
Nous dansons dans l'eau et nous nous tenons si fort
In Africa
En Afrique
The mothers will sing you to sleep
Les mères vous chanteront pour vous endormir
And say it's alright, child, it's alright
Et disent que tout va bien, enfant, tout va bien
Joseph rode in on a beam of light
Joseph est arrivé sur un rayon de lumière
Dreamed of his queen by his side
Rêvé de sa reine à ses côtés
There will be a beautiful sunset
Il y aura un beau coucher de soleil
And you'll be a beautiful bride
Et tu seras une belle mariée
Joseph rode in on a beam of light
Joseph chegou em um feixe de luz
Stray dogs to welcome in fights
Cães vadios para receber em lutas
Go build the cathedrals
Vá construir as catedrais
The sight of the pilgrims gone nowhere
A visão dos peregrinos que não foram a lugar nenhum
And millions of cars
E milhões de carros
They guise a dream in the distance
Eles disfarçam um sonho à distância
From promises he'd leave behind
Das promessas que ele deixaria para trás
When there was no harvest
Quando não havia colheita
He missed the sky and its circus
Ele sentiu falta do céu e seu circo
And countless, the stars
E incontáveis, as estrelas

Stray dogs to welcome in fights
Perros callejeros para dar la bienvenida en peleas
Go build the cathedrals
Ve a construir las catedrales
The sight of the pilgrims gone nowhere
La vista de los peregrinos que no van a ninguna parte
And millions of cars
Y millones de coches
They guise a dream in the distance
Disfrazan un sueño en la distancia
From promises he'd leave behind
De las promesas que dejaría atrás
When there was no harvest
Cuando no hubo cosecha

Joseph rode in on a beam of light
Joseph ritt auf einem Lichtstrahl ein
Stray dogs to welcome in fights
Streunende Hunde begrüßten ihn mit Kämpfen
Go build the cathedrals
Geht und baut die Kathedralen
The sight of the pilgrims gone nowhere
Der Anblick der nirgendwo hingegangenen Pilger
And millions of cars
Und Millionen von Autos
They guise a dream in the distance
Sie tarnen einen Traum in der Ferne
From promises he'd leave behind
Aus Versprechen, die er zurücklassen würde
When there was no harvest
Als es keine Ernte gab
He missed the sky and its circus
Er vermisste den Himmel und seinen Zirkus
And countless, the stars
Und unzählige, die Sterne
In Africa

The rivers are perfectly deep and beautifully wide
Die Flüsse sind perfekt tief und wunderschön breit

Joseph arrivò su un raggio di luce
Stray dogs to welcome in fights
Cani randagi ad accoglierlo in lotta
Go build the cathedrals
Andate a costruire le cattedrali
The sight of the pilgrims gone nowhere
La vista dei pellegrini andati da nessuna parte
And millions of cars
E milioni di auto
They guise a dream in the distance
Mascherano un sogno in lontananza
From promises he'd leave behind
Dalle promesse che avrebbe lasciato dietro
When there was no harvest
Quando non c'era raccolto
He missed the sky and its circus
Ha perso il cielo e il suo circo
And countless, the stars
E innumerevoli, le stelle
In Africa
In Africa
The rivers are perfectly deep and beautifully wide
I fiumi sono perfettamente profondi e bellamente larghi
In Africa
In Africa
The mothers will sing you to sleep
Le madri ti canteranno per farti addormentare
Say it's alright, child, it's alright
Dicono che va tutto bene, bambino, va tutto bene
