Lyrics
Some call them illegals, but we call them men of adventure, n ko sababu k
The fault lies with, they re afraid of betrayal
Aheyiii ny maaw yo, many perished
K anw b na k anw t na, they re afraid of betrayal, i ask our leaders
W or wolonfila segi k n t n, olu b san kelen fila saba naani duuru
Olu y u wolofaw to u ka so wa d w b a f olu ma clandestin, they re leaving, they re afraid of death
N aw dun ma denmis nniw d m n ko olu b ka siran sa, aheyiii ny maaw yo

Hile hile hile hile hile hile, tan tan tan tan tan tan Clandestin, many died x2
But we call them men of adventure, they re leaving, ala iye heyi

The fault lies with europeans, aheyiii ny maaw yo, if you don t help young people
