Lyrics of Africa Speaks - Santana, Buika

Africa Speaks (original)

Deep in the jungle, beyond the reach of greed
You hear the voices of spirits
With their frequency of light
Making sounds like the crackling of stars at night
Communicating with plants, animals and mankind
Affirming the universal truth
All and everything was conceived here in Africa
The cradle of civilization
De la paz pasajera
Del amor habla el libro de los hombres
Y del fuego en el mar
Veneno y sal
Del amor y la guerra
Veneno
Veneno
De la paz y de la guerra
Habla el libro de los hombres
Y del fuego en el mar
Veneno y sal
En las noches traicioneras
Vuelan los besos sin rumbo
Hay fuego en el mar
Veneno y sal
Veneno y sal
Veneno y sal
Veneno y sal
Veneno y sal

(translation)

Deep in the jungle, beyond the reach of grease
You hear the voices of spirits
With their frequency of light
Making sounds like the crackling of stars at night
Communicating with plants, animals and mankind
Affirming the universal truth
All and everything was conceived here in Africa
The cradle of civilization
Of the passing peace
The book of men speaks of love
And from the fire in the sea
poison and salt
Of love and war
Poison
Poison
Of peace and war
Speak the book of men
And from the fire in the sea
poison and salt
In the treacherous nights
Kisses fly aimlessly
There is fire in the sea
poison and salt
poison and salt
poison and salt
poison and salt
poison and salt
