Agolo : (Simplified Translation) English Lyrics

______________

I Just Saw the Face

Of the God of Love and Tenderness

Passing By My Window

At this Moment , Don't Despair,

Let's Think of the Love that Mother Earth offers us

If we are Generous, She will make our Future Prosperous

Love Life, Mother Earth

Love Life, Africa Motherland

Enjoy the Benefits of Mother Earth

Move Out of the Way , and Make Room for Her ; to Go About Her Daily Business.
