DZN93 :
Here’s the translation of the song that many of you requested. Thank you for all your messages and support! ❤️🌍
🇺🇸 ENGLISH VERSION
He left Mogadishu,
With a heart full of hope,
The first Somali in history,
To reach that dream, that glory.
Years spent chasing a ball,
Enforcing the rules with passion for all,
All of Africa watched his rise,
At last, the world opened its eyes.
[Pre-Chorus]
But at the airport, everything fell apart,
A whole dream shattered in his heart,
Without even stepping onto the field,
They told him to turn around and leave.
[Chorus]
But when he returned home,
An entire nation stood and cheered,
Thousands of voices in the stadium sang his name,
Like that of a true champion.
They tried to close a border to him,
But they could not stop his light,
Because a hero is not measured by a visa,
A hero is a people who believe in you.
[Verse 2]
In the streets of Mogadishu,
Children held his picture high,
As if to tell the whole world,
“Our pride will never be taken away.”
He never spoke of revenge,
Only courage and hope,
He thanked all those who stood by him,
Despite the dream that was interrupted.
[Bridge]
What an injustice…
When Africa’s greatest referee
Sees his destiny put on hold,
Even after earning everything.
But sometimes the greatest victories
Are not written in history books,
They live inside people’s hearts,
And that is greater forever.
[Final Chorus]
When he returned home,
An entire nation stood and cheered,
Thousands of Somalis rose in the stands,
To ease his pain little by little.
They tried to close a border to him,
But they could not stop his light,
Today Somalia can be proud,
Its hero won far more than a career.
[Outro]
America refused him…
But Somalia gave him something stronger:
The love of its people.
And that…
No border will ever be able to deport. ❤️🇸🇴
