Lyrics

From Hlm Nema to Cite Keur guorgui
You walk with humility
You walk with simplicity
And guide us toward the light
Now that we have you
We won't let you go
Like the heart of the street
No mask, no game, no theater
Just steady moving feet
You carry heavy promises
And you do not bend
When the pressure comes around
You stand firm again
As the guardian of the revolution
And the young ones see you
Thank you for opening our eyes
Thank you for putting Senegal first
Thank you for protecting your people
Thank you for always being truthful
Thank you for giving us hope
Thank you for being you
Thank you for the Jub Jubbal Jubbanti
Sonko, Sonko
We rise with Sonko
Sonko, Sonko
The people sing Sonko
Sonko, Sonko
Hands high for Sonko
Sonko, Sonko
Senegal, Sonko
You are not the flashy kind
You are are on mission
You keep your face on service
And your word stays tough
You fight the old corruption
Say the lie can end today
You put transparency
Where the shadows used to stay
You speak of sovereignty
Of African dignity
Of bread in every family
Of African pride
Of African independence
And freedom from the chain
The youth are marching louder
With your name inside their chest
They see a new generation
They see the very best
And the young ones see you
Thank you for opening our eyes
Thank you for putting Senegal first
Thank you for protecting your people
Thank you for always being truthful
Thank you for giving us hope
Thank you for being you
Thank you for the Jub Jubbal Jubbanti
Sonko, Sonko
We rise with Sonko
Sonko, Sonko
The people sing Sonko
Sonko, Sonko
Hands high for Sonko
Sonko, Sonko
Senegal, Sonko
For the sacrifice you carry
For the truth you never sold
For the dream you kept alive
When the night was dark and cold
Let the elders bless your courage
Let the children learn your name
From Dakar to every village
We will answer with one flame
Sonko, Sonko
We rise with Sonko
Sonko, Sonko
The people sing Sonko
Sonko, Sonko
Africa with Sonko
Sonko, Sonko
A brighter day, Sonko
