about
Sung in French and Dioula
My father and mother support the family home.
My brothers and sisters are united and strong.
In my house, joy and love reigns.
Chanté en français et dioula
Mon père et ma mère soutiennent la maison familiale.
Mes frères et sœurs font l'union et la force.
Dans ma maison, c'est la joie et l'amour qui règnent.
lyrics
Hooooooo hoooooooo
In front of my house, a rooted tree
My father carries within him the love of our lineage
My family is my source of life, our hearts are in harmony
My family resonates within me, our hearts beat in emotion, this rhythm is my joy
It's joy in my house, it's love on the horizon
It is the peace that unites us, we are there without jealousy
Hee, I'll dance my joy, hee, I'll sing my faith
No one will take away these joys, it's a moment of sweetness
In front of my house, a rooted tree
My father carries within him the love of our lineage
My family, is my source of life, our hearts are in harmony
My family resonates within me, our hearts beat in emotion, this rhythm is my joy
It's joy in my house, it's love on the horizon
It is the peace that unites us, we are there without jealousy
Heee, I'll dance my joy, I'll sing my faith (2x)
I will sing my faith
It's joy in my house, it's love on the horizon
It is the peace that unites us, we are there without jealousy

Hooooooo hoooooooo
Devant ma maison, un arbre enraciné
Mon père porte en lui l'amour de notre lignée
Ma famille est ma source de vie, nos cœurs sont en harmonie
Ma famille résonne en moi, nos cœurs battent en émoi, ce rythme est ma joie
C'est la joie dans ma maison, c'est l'amour à l’horizon
C'est la paix qui nous unit, on est là sans jalousie
Hee je danserai ma joie, hee je chanterai ma foi
Personne ne m’enlèvera ces bonheurs, c'est un moment de douceur
Devant ma maison, un arbre enraciné
Mon père porte en lui l'amour de notre lignée
Ma famille, est ma source de vie, nos cœurs sont en harmonie
Ma famille résonne en moi, nos cœurs battent en émoi, ce rythme est ma joie
C'est la joie dans ma maison, c'est l'amour à l’horizon
C'est la paix qui nous unit, on est là sans jalousie
Heee je danserai ma joie, je chanterai ma foi (2x)
Je chanterai ma foi
C'est la joie dans ma maison, c'est l'amour à l’horizon
C'est la paix qui nous unit, on est là sans jalousie
