We are the stars which sing
We sing with our light
We are the birds of fire
We fly over the sky

Our light is a voice
We make a road for the spirit to pass over
For the Spirits to pass over
{algonquian indian}

We are like the wind
wrapped, in luminous wings
We make a road for the spirits to pass over
For the Spirits to pass over

Outò, ba mwen son ou,e
(outò, give me your sound)
outò, ba mwen son ou,e,
(Outò, give me your sound)
Tanbouyè, o ba mwen son ou,
(drummer, give me your sound)
Solèy lève
(The sun rises)
