Oumou Sangare - Saa Magni lyrics

O d**h; O d**h d**h is so harsh d**h is so cruel d**h who struck down Amadou Ba Guindo But d**h spares no creature Nothing can stop it Not even fame Or having many children Great riches and many friends Amadou is gone And when I go to Douentza I will not see him again He will never be seen again in Bamako In Douentza Tenin OngoTna cries for you Whilst in Bamako Amadou cries for you As Adja' cries for you Your widow Fanta cries for her missing husband For Guindo has disappeared, struck down by treacherous d**h In Bamako your old friend Alou Tracre misses you How bitter is d**h, how bitter separation It is hard to break the links (of friendship) How it is hard to be separated from one's people Guindo But d**h spares no one The Grim Reaper of hope did not spare Amadou Guindo If it did not spare the Prophet Mohammed Just as it struck down Amadou Cherif Leaving his father Bouba in pain May his soul rest in peace How harsh is separation, how harsh d**h And merciless d**h strikes without distinction Villainous d**h crouches at a bend in the path Lying in wait for us May God preserve us from it But d**h spares no one It strikes in the prime of life Perfidious d**h crouches at a bend in the path O d**h; O d**h You did not spare Guindo No creature can escape you 0 d**h, O d**h, how you are cruel
