Translation
Africa
In the wide plains of the savannah
Sharp rocks and a punctured tire
Far from home and our destination
Sun fell from the sky
First glaringly bright and fiercely hot
then hidden and cold as ice
Both is hardly bearable
Hear the lament of misery
A sober spirit will do you well
For the night has a thousand eyes
Here a bristling, there a humming
The wailing just won't stop
Ever closer draws the noise
Sharp teeth and sharp fangs
Want to bury themselves in flesh
And feast on your blood
Africa
You love me
Africa
You love me too much
You won't let me go
Africa
You love me
Africa
You love me way too much
I won't let you go
Wild beasts need to eat
Yes, you almost forgot about that
First a snarling then a growling
And want turns into desire
Desire gives way to compulsion
Will you kiss fear goodbye
For compulsion has long since won
The hunt for your life has begun
The fat prey right in front of you
Hurry, separate it from the herd
Firmly close her tender throat
If you won't another one will
My heart, you're standing still
In my dead breast
Flesh is my religion
You're but a pittance for me
Cradle of mankind, walking upright
How oft' I wanted to be human, before succeeding in
Africa
You love me
Africa
You love me way too much
You won't let me go
Africa
You love me
Africa
You love me way too much
I love you even more

who play stringed instruments and pipes. (Genesis 4:21)
