Africa
Eo, oh.
Entre el Rey Bantú, el babú y el zulú,
cuando yo llegué vaya lío que se armó.
Eo, oh.
Para mi pensé: que feísimos que son.
Me van a comer. Aquí no me quedo yo.
Eo, oh.
Iban tan pintados que no pude comprender,
que me sonreian y decian ven a ver.
África,
al sonido del tam tam,
todos bailan sin parar,
esto es en África.
África,
con su mágico poder,
hechizada por la luna me quedé.
Dijo el Rey Bantú: Esta me la quedo yo,
y los otros dos: Eso no lo crees ni tú.
Eo, oh.
Y como los tres me querian conseguir,
les propuse yo que me dieran a elegir.
Eo, oh.
Mientras lo pensaba,
me traian para mí,
gemas y diamantes, esmeraldas y marfil.
África,
al sonido del tam tam,
todos bailan sin parar,
esto es en África.
África,
con su mágico poder,
hechizada por la luna me quedé.

Africa
Hey, oh.
Between the Bantu King, the chief, and the Zulu,
when I arrived, what a mess it turned into.
Hey, oh.
I thought to myself: how ugly they are.
They’re gonna eat me. I’m not sticking around here.
Hey, oh.
They were so decked out I couldn’t understand,
they smiled at me and said, come take a look.
Africa,
to the sound of the drum,
everyone dances non-stop,
this is in Africa.
Africa,
with its magical power,
under the moon's spell, I stayed.
The Bantu King said: This one’s mine,
and the other two: You don’t even believe that.
Hey, oh.
And since all three wanted to win me over,
I proposed that they let me choose.
Hey, oh.
While I was thinking,
they brought me,
gems and diamonds, emeralds and ivory.
Africa,
to the sound of the drum,
everyone dances non-stop,
this is in Africa.
Africa,
with its magical power,
under the moon's spell, I stayed.
