[Intro: Carlinhos Brown]
Essa bola vai rolar
O mundo é um tapete verde
Quando a bola chega lá
Coração fica na rede, na rede, na rede
Ola, ola!

[Chorus]
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La!
I dare you

[Verse 1]
You have arrived, it's the place
No more doubts the time is coming
Feel how the planet, become one
Like a drum destiny's calling
German, Colombians, Spanish and French
Off the bench you gotta own it
Down here we play, like we dance
It's Brazil and now you know it

[Pre-Chorus]
Is it true that you want it?
Then act like you mean it
With everyone watching
It's truth or dare, can you feel it?

[Chorus] 2X
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La!
I dare you

[Verse 2]
You're a good soldier
Choosing your battles
Pick yourself up and dust yourself off
Get back in the saddle
You're on the front line
Everyone's watching
You know it's serious, we're getting closer
This isn't over

[Pre-Chorus]
The pressure's on, you feel it
But you got it all, believe it
When you fall get up, oh oh
If you fall get up, eh eh
Tsamina mina zangalewa
'Cause this is Africa

[Chorus]
Tsamina mina, eh eh
Waka waka, eh eh
Tsamina mina zangalewa
This time for Africa

[Verse 3]
Listen to your God
This is our motto
Your time to shine, don't wait in line
Y vamos por todo
People are raising
Their expectations
Go on and feed them, this is your moment
No hesitations

[Pre-Chorus]
Today's your day, I feel it
You paved the way, believe it
If you get down get up, oh oh
When you get down get up, eh eh
Tsamina mina zangalewa
This time for Africa

[Chorus]
Tsamina mina, eh eh
Waka waka, eh eh
Tsamina mina zangalewa
Anawa a a
Tsamina mina, eh eh
Waka waka, eh eh
Tsamina mina zangalewa
This time for Africa

[Verse 4: Zolani]
Awabuye lamajoni, ipikipiki mama wa A to Z
Bathi susa lamajoni, ipikipiki mama from East to West
Bathi waka waka ma eh eh
Waka waka ma eh eh
Zonk' izizwe mazibuye 'cause this is Africa

[Bridge]
Tsamina mina, Anawa a a
Tsamina mina
Tsamina mina, Anawa a a

[Chorus]
Tsamina mina, eh eh
Waka waka, eh eh
Tsamina mina zangalewa
Anawa a a
Tsamina mina, eh eh
Waka waka, eh eh
Tsamina mina zangalewa
This time for Africa

[Outro: Shakira]
Django eh eh

Tsamina mina zangalewa

This time for Africa
This time for Africa
We're all Africa
We're all Africa
