Metisse - Boom Boom Ba Lyrics

A boom boom bâ,(1)
A boom boom bâ,
A boom boom bâ,
A boom boom bâ

Kélé, fila, saba, nani, norou(2)

(A boom boom bâ) Can you hear my heart beat in this world?
(A boom boom bâ) Do you know that behind all these words
(A boom boom bâ) Lies a deep desire Kamélé hé!(3)
(A boom boom bâ) Mé kouman mé fora y bamê(4)

Are my dreams to be all I can do?
Lay o lay above, lay o lay below
And he said Annie will show them a new way
Mé kouman mé fora y bamê

Kélé, filla, saba, nani, norou

(A boom boom bâ) Can you hear my heart beat in this world?
(A boom boom bâ) Do you know that behind all these words
(A boom boom bâ) Lies a deep desire Kamélé hé!
(A boom boom bâ) Mé kouman mé fora y bamê

Are my dreams to be all I can do?
Lay o lay above, lay o lay below
And he said Annie will show them a new way
Mé kouman mé fora y bamê

Kélé, fila, saba, nani, norou

(A boom boom bâ) Can you hear my heart beat in this world?
(A boom boom bâ) Do you know that behind all these words
(A boom boom bâ) Lies a deep desire Kamélé hé!
(A boom boom bâ) Mé kouman mé fora y bamê

Kélé, fila, saba, nani, norou

(A boom boom bâ) Aligna donguiri ma digné…(5)
(A boom boom bâ) Mé kouman mé fôra y bamê(6)
(A boom boom bâ) Aligna donguiri ma digné…
(A boom boom bâ) Mé kouman mé fôra y bamê

Kélé, fila, saba, nani, norou
Can you hear my heart beat in this world?
Can you hear my heart beat in this world?
Kélé, fila, saba, nani, norou

(1)"A Boom Boom" represents a heartbeat, while "bâ"
means "child" in one of the eleven dialects of Dioula
spoken in Ghana and The Ivory Coast; so, in essence,
the line represents the singer's heart beating for the children
of the world
(2) "One, two, three, four, five"
(3) "Kamélé hé!" = "Hey boy!"
(4) "Understand what I'm saying"
(5) "You don't need to like my song…"
(6) "…to understand what I'm saying."
