Letra da Música African Girl de Naomi Wachira

I've been walking down this road
For about 35 years now, and I can tell you
It's been one hell of a ride
And I've been carrying
My father's words that he said to me
Learn to be wise, walk with integrity
And be honest
And I can hear my grandma say
Child I've got nothing to give you
But may god be with you
In that distant land

I am an african girl
Well I know where I'm coming from
And I know who I want to be
I am trying to defying everything
They said of us
We who have chocolate skin

In the back of my mind all
I can hear ooh ooh are voices
Of those who are here
And those who've already gone
And I can hear them whispering, mwari witu
When you go their land
Please represent us well
And I can hear my grandma say
Child I've got nothing to give you
But may god be with you
In that distant land

I am an african girl
And I know where I'm coming from
And I know who I want to be
I am trying to defying everything
They said of us
We who have chocolate skin

I will sing, I will sing, I will sing

Ngai, wa ibrahamu, ithe witu, udirikane
Tondu wa thakame ya murugwo
Udirikane, udirikane
Ndeithagia maundu makwa mothe
Ndikamachonorithie, udirikane
Ndeithagia maundu makwa mothe
Ndikamachonorithie, udirikane

I will sing, I will sing, I will sing

I am an african girl
And I know where I'm coming from
And I know who I want to be
I am trying to defying everything
They said of us
We who have chocolate skin
