Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Enfants Du Monde by Yaniss Odua from French to English.

We all move forward together, we step out of the shadows

Even if they wanna divide us, we stay brothers

Feel how their world shakes, anger is rumbling

Cause the people don't wanna let it slide anymore

Youth, you're protesting, you wanna be heard

You question their model, you've got dreams to defend

From the strange that disturbs, there's so much to learn

Wealth's in sharing, what matters isn't for sale

I am, yeah you are, we are

Children of the Earth, united with our brothers, after all

I don't forget that I am, so you are, we are

It's the Love we give that makes us human

I saw zombies in fatigues march by

They came to draw lines between countries

Forget visas, my village is free

Know that hospitality's the only law I obey

The child of Zion feels at home everywhere

All children of one mother

All together, one single Earth

We vibe on the same tune

That brings us together and pulls us close

I am, yeah you are, we are

Children of the Earth, united with our brothers, after all

I don't forget that I am, so you are, we are

It's the Love we give that makes us human

Again

Kids cry out that they want us to unite

They brag a lot but they can't stop us

They changed their reference, took Shaka Zulu

And they say you'll knock down any massive wall

So move, stand tall and light up your destiny

Courage, pride, and real knowledge

Three MCs are here fighting for freedom

Cause the children of tomorrow are kings of the Kingdom

All Children of the World, Children of the Earth

Here or there, the sun has the same brightness

All Children of the World, Children of the Earth

You fight, he fights, with the same pride

All Children of the World, Children of the Earth

And we raise our arms for freedom

All Children of the World, Children of the Earth

I am, yeah you are, we are

Children of the Earth, united with our brothers, after all

I don't forget that I am, so you are, we are

It's the Love we give that makes us human

Again

When those who rule us

Trick us till we lose our minds

Yellow vests and green ones

East or west, rise on the horizon

From the top of their glass tower

They endlessly pour out their poison

Whoever spreads hate into the air

Should worry about the harvest

Oooooh, it's time for us to unite

Time to own your actions

Oooooh, the planet in unison

Love as our only ammo

I am, yeah you are, we are

Children of the Earth, united with our brothers, after all

I don't forget that I am, so you are, we are

It's the Love we give that makes us human

Again

I am, yeah you are, we are

I don't forget that I am, so you are, we are

Did you like this lyrics translation?

Enfants Du Monde bursts forth as a vibrant reggae rallying cry from French-Caribbean artist Yaniss Odua and roots-reggae collective Danakil. From the very first line, the song invites us to step out of the shadows together, shake the ground beneath those in power, and refuse to be divided. Over a warm, skanking groove, the singers celebrate young people who contest outdated systems, dream big, and learn from everything that seems “strange.” Their refrain — Je suis, oui tu es, nous sommes — reminds us that real wealth lies in exchange, that borders are imaginary lines, and that welcoming others is the only law worth obeying.

By the second verse the anthem goes global: different languages, references to Chaka Zulu, and chants for freedom weave a colorful human tapestry. The lyrics point a finger at leaders cloistered in “glass towers,” spreading poison and hate, while ordinary citizens don yellow or green vests and rise in protest. Yet the song stays hopeful: the sole weapon it prescribes is Love, the shared sunlight that shines on everyone, everywhere. “Enfants Du Monde” is ultimately a feel-good call for worldwide solidarity, ecological awareness, and fearless unity — a reminder that we’re all children of the same Earth, fists raised for liberty and hearts wide open.
