[English]
The fault lies ...
The fault lies with Europeans
Our young people get up and decide to emigrate
To go on an adventure in search of money
They left their mothers at home
They left their fathers at home
Some call them Illegals
But we call them Men of Adventure
I ask our leaders, isn’t there someone to help them stay at home?
Chorus:
They count one, two, three, four, five,
Six, seven, eight, nine ...
They count one, two, three, four, five,
Six, seven, eight, nine ...
Up to ten years ...
Many perished. Many died x2
I’m calling out to our leaders
If you don’t help young people, they’ll get scared
They’re afraid of shame, they’re afraid of death
They’re afraid of betrayal
They’re leaving, and throwing themselves in the hands of betrayal
Their adventure ends badly
I say that the fault lies, the fault lies with ...
Many perished. Many died. x2
