Paroles de The Chosen Land

Paroles de The Chosen Land Par KENNY K-SHOT

We honor their lives

With our tears and our cries

Our scars may run deep but so does our pride

In this land of a thousand hills

Where love can’t be denied

From the genocide, we rise

We may have been broken but we were not defeated

We’re the land of the chosen

So the fruit of love we’re reaping

So let our voices rise up

In song and in verse

As we celebrate rwanda’s rebirth

Yeah

In 94 the world watched us suffer in vain

Deep down forever scarred by colonial pain

Started back in 58; it was part of the plan

To start washing our brains spilling blood on our land

They segregated our families with branded identities

Turned neighbors to rivals and masses to casualties

The 1994 genocide against the tutsi fueled by the babylon’s lies and ugly mentality

T’wasn’t easy to cope with such sickening times

Streets filled with millions of corpses of innocent lives

From the ashes we rose with tears in our eyes

Clinging to hope that now strengthens our ties

Let us remember in peace dear ones that we lsot

And stand with the motherland at any cost

We are the symbol of strength and grace

And our story we must embrace

Let’s be the generation we want to see

And keep building a nation filled with love and peace

For rwanda’s future is bright and divine

And our spirits forever will shine

We honor their lives

With our tears and our cries

Our scars may run deep but so does our pride

In this land of a thousand hills

Where love can’t be denied

From the genocide, we rise

We may have been broken but we were not defeated

We’re the land of the chosen

So the fruit of love we’re reaping

So let our voices rise up

In song and in verse

As we celebrate rwanda’s rebirth

Justice pour ceux qu’on ne voit plus

Paix à l’enfant qui a rien connue

Que l’histoire nous serve de lumière

Plus jamais l’horreur

Des cœurs qui battent sous l’même refrain

L’espoir du lendemain

Main dans la main
