Do not say that he is dead because he remains immortal Sheikh Anta Diop
Do not say that he is dead because the ancestors he joined
Do not burst into tears because on the great trà From now on he sits
The throne of the pharaohs of the eternal pharaohs
Look rather look at how he calls out to us peoples of 'Africa
Give your best
And save humanity the whole humanity.
Don't say he is dead sheikh anta diop
You who gave the best of yourself to Africa
Have given to the black world, to humanity
How pay you the deserved tribute?
The forest intertwined with thorny lianas you have pruned
Traà §trading the paths of science
The swamps infested with carnivorous monsters
Forgers of history you have crossed
Searching for fossils of the truth, the inky and cold night of solitude
Sacrificed generation that we are, you said
Sacrificed ©, yes you were, yes that’s it
You threw yourself into the battle, you exhausted yourself ©
May we be able to walk proudly, with our heads held high
Is it true that you died Sheikh? That you are no longer a sheikh?
You who for a few moments still urged me to redouble my ardor
To brave the low blows of an Africa which is searching for itself
You who I invited people to gather goodwill for a glorious future
Is it you who are no longer, Cheikh Anta Diop?
We, the people of Africa, plead for him and
Let us say it for all the good he has done to humanity
Be praised, to God, see Sheikh Anta Diop comes to you
br/>Without sin, without harm
He gave bread to the hungry, water to the thirsty
Clothes that was naked, a ferry that had no boat
He made offerings to the Gods
And funeral gifts raries to the blessed dead
Save Cheikh Anta Diop, keep him
Cheikh Anta Diop is a man with a pure mouth
Pure hands and those who see him, be welcome
br/>We, the people of Africa, plead for him and
Let us say him for all the good he has done to humanity
So this is our plea, we people of Africa, for you, Sheikh
Now you can leave, you can leave in peace
The pact is sealed, we will remain faithful to you
The Africa will rise to the challenge, the challenge of the future
Humanity will be saved, and to you, we will return what returns to you
Glory, glory in the pediment of history
Rest in peace, but always be with us, sons of Africa
Sheikh, Cheikh Anta, Cheikh Anta Diop, you 'immortal
Do not say that he is dead because he remains immortal Cheikh Anta Diop
