Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Demain Ça Ira by Smarty from French to English.

Finti on the beat, Masta

I rise to build my land too

God watches over the world

Peace will reign in the land

Thanks, God, for the times ahead

Tomorrow it'll be alright, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

We don't give up, no, no, no, no

The sun will rise, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

We won't stay down, no, no, no, no

Zeynab

My friend, yeah

The future's reaching out to you, yeah

Step forward, yeah

Build a world apart, yeah, yeah

A new start, yeah

For your rights and your duties, yeah

Fond Africa, yeah

Fond ahamo Africa

The road is long

Masta

And really hard

But never, never, never, never give up

Lift your head to the sky

Dream even higher

There's hope

Can't you see it's beautiful

Tomorrow it'll be alright, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

We don't give up, no, no, no, no

The sun will rise, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

We won't stay down, no, no, no, no

It's a bit of this

And a bit of that

For all these little ones

We must take giant steps

We promised ourselves

We'll go to school

For the children

Of the country

That's the ABCs

I rise to build my land too

God watches over the world

Peace will reign in the land

Thanks, God, for the times ahead

The road is long

And really hard

But never, never, never, never give up

Lift your head to the sky

Dream even higher

There's hope

Can't you see it's beautiful

Tomorrow it'll be alright, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

We don't give up, no, no, no, no

The sun will rise, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

We won't stay down, no, no, no, no

Hope keeps us alive

We cling to our dreams

We'll walk straight

Like our fathers

Either you win

Or you learn

Nobody loses

Everything can be learned

No more regrets

We won't mess up again

We're in it

Straight ahead

No more regrets

We won't mess up again

We're in it

Straight ahead

Tomorrow it'll be alright, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

We don't give up, no, no, no, no

The sun will rise, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

We won't stay down, no, no, no, no

SONG MEANING

✨ “Demain Ça Ira” (“Tomorrow Will Be Fine”) is a bright Afro-pop anthem of hope. Switching between French and the Mooré language of Burkina Faso, Smarty, Zeynab, and Toofan remind listeners that even when “la route est longue, et très difficile,” giving up is not an option. They invite us to lift our heads, dream higher, and trust that “le soleil se lèvera.” The repeated chants of “yé, yé, yé” echo the heartbeat of a continent that believes in better days.

The song also calls for action: fight for your rights and duties, keep children in school, and turn every setback into a lesson because “soit tu gagnes, soit t’apprends.” By blending personal perseverance with collective responsibility, “Demain Ça Ira” transforms into an energizing promise that tomorrow really can be brighter if we keep moving forward together.
