Letra de Ancient Power
Intro (by Larry McDonald):
Can you hear those melodies that linger on
Can you feel those warriors, those gideons
They’re still there somewhere
Written by a mind and a heart who cares
Their music lives continually
Ancient power, ancient power, ancient power

Fire nah go harm the Zions weapon
We roots and tough so cool down dragon (fire nah go harm the Zions weapon)
The ancient song of Touba (we nah go promote no fool so line up dread)
I’m from the garrison Meta the ruler here again
Upon the mission and the vision fi di youths again
Line up the soldiers, yes I salute you
Unu betta think about the future and we culture,

Roots we no promote no fool yah
We from the garrison, me say fi cool yeah
From the heart of a sufferer, you’ll find faith still a conquer
Me say no dem no have no pitty dirty money dem about
Dem ah use sweet words to keep I down
Promises, colonies, see dem around taking over
Dem no have no pitty dirty money dem about Dem ah use sweet words to keep I down

Promises, colonies, see dem around taking over
We roots and tough so cool down dragon (fire nah go harm the Zions weapon)
The ancient song of Touba (we nah go promote no fool so line up dread)
I inherit, inherit the nomadic fathers
They must know they belong to Egypt and Sahara Forward Jah works with love
Send us your blessing God
Ah remedy vibration music ah fi blaze

Progression, melodies here we celebrate
We hit the Gong on the streets, set the captives free Here we stumble and dance
Independenza, mic pour la vida, Cornerstones c’est la millefa
Do ré mi fa so la si do, c’est la musique, la vida
Ehehehey, dunya dunya dunya dunya dunya
Ehehehey, this life this life this life this life this life

Legui legui dana jekh, amoul bayi amoul mere
Wala wala fala de, boul topando yi ay jiko
Bayil tok bi tengua jok, bayil tok bi tengua jok
Legui legui dana jekh, amoul bayi amoul mere
Wala wala fala de, boul topando yi ay jiko
Bayil tok bi tengua jok, bayil tok bi tengua jok

We roots tough so cool down dragon (fire nah go harm the Zions weapon)
The ancient song of Touba (we nah go promote no fool so line up dread)
We roots tough so cool down
Fire nah go harm the Zions weapon
Fire fire fire fire
