lyrics

Good Mandingo
(André Sampaio e Sekou Diarra)

They call him Good Mandingo
Son of the great Forgeron*
Walking along the railroad
The whole world is his home

He was born in a sunny moonlight
Across the sea, over the sky
The nurse said to his mom
This one is born to fight
Will honor his ancestors
Build bridges to reach the stars

Shine on Good Mandingo (coro)
Yeah, they call him!

They call him Good Mandingo
Son of the great Forgeron
Walking along the railroad
The whole world is his home

Them elder is who teach him
He just learn his lesson
To stand after you fall
Life is short and world is round
The night will soon be over
You’ll see the sun will shine
The night will soon be over
Brothers and sisters it’s time to shine

Shine on Good Mandingo
They call him
Shine on Good Mandingo
Ohh, what’s his name?

*Forgeron (do francês): ferreiro, importante casta na sociedade mandengue
