非洲啊醒来吧,非洲! 从你那幽黯的梦境中醒来吧, 你已经睡得太久了, 难道你还不感到厌倦? 难道主子的铁蹄还没让你受够? 你已经在黑暗中躺了很久很久, 在你那破旧的茅屋里, 你劳苦疲惫, 已经不知道该有什么企求。你迷惘地建造着黑暗的明天, 用的正是自己的双手。你忍饥挨饿,度着岁月, 象是坟地里苍老的看守。过去啊,你一无所有,——没能给未来带上光荣的桂冠, 也没有能把主权掌握在手! Wake up in Africa ah, Africa! Wake up from your dark dreams, you have slept too long, do not you feel tired? Do not the master’s iron hoof enough for you? You have been in the dark Lying in the long, long time, in your shabby hut, you are tired, you already do not know what to ask. You are confused to build a dark future, with your own hands. You are starving, spending years, like the old caretaker in the grave. In the past, you have nothing - no honor for the future, nor the sovereignty in your hand!
