[Intro]
Woïdje hiidji, woïdje hiidji, touré hiidji, woïdje hiidji arma
[Verse 1]
Hayaïda, hayaïda, the night hums in a distant fire
Earth sings under our feet, we walk through the name of desire
Whispers in the soil, we hold to what we knew inside
Voices echo forward, through the river of time we glide
[Chorus]
hayaïda hayaïda, hold the light a little tighter
We keep the faith alive, through the shadows and the brighter
Hayaïda, hayaïda, till the morning paints the sky
We sing our earth together, letting hopeful echoes fly
[Verse 2]
yerdou leterre, hayaïda, yerdou leterre, yerdou yerdou leterre
Boïro yerdou gomni leterre, woïdje hiidji, stories we share
Roots run deep in soil and song, we rise with every breath
Hands joined across the miles, between life and myth we thread
[Bridge]
Woïdje hiidji, koyrakoyoh wohkaï, worthie ga
Woïdje hiidji baby, woïyoh wohkaï, worthiega
Woïdje hiidji kounta, woïyoh wohkaï, worthiega
Woïdje hiidji chirfiwoïyoh, wohkaï, worthiega
[Chorus]
yerdou leterre, hayaïda, maï ga samba leterre
Mr Cissé n'ga samba leterre, À samba leterre kano
À har n'go bah woïdje, Àcomfirmerah woïdje comfirmera
A comfirmera désormais madame Cissé
[Outro]
Woïdje hiidji, woïdje hiidji, arma woyedi n'ga hiidji
La terre parle encore, et nos pas répondent, oui, hiidji
