Above these hills, my voice rises forever
Oh my little country, oh beloved Rwanda
A million drops of water falling from earth to sky
A million of our graves in torrential downpours
From our deep pits to our highest points
We are standing now, our hair in the wind
To ward off the fate that a disaster swallowed
To tell ourselves we are strong, that we come from infinity

I dream of you
Kwibuka
I'm dreamin' of you
Kwibuka
I dream of you
Kwibuka
I'm dreamin' of you
Kwibuka

I dream of you, song of an ivory evening
I dream of you, my words are derisory
I dream of you when history misleads us
I dream standing in the garden of memories
And since I am already reborn from our abysses
I make our smiles eternal scars
And I walk through life without ever forgetting
That a storm in April, a sun in July

We will always praise you, we will remember you
We remember the good times we had
We will always give you value
We remember the beauty that adorned you

I dream of you
Kwibuka
I'm dreamin' of you
Kwibuka
I dream of you
Kwibuka
I'm dreamin' of you
Kwibuka

I dream of you
You my undefeated lights
My memory
My naked silences
I dream of you
Dispel the darkness
I do not forget
I dress in your dreams

I dream of you
You my undefeated lights
My memory
My naked silences
I dream of you
Dispel the darkness
I do not forget
I dress in your dreams
