Lyrics of "the footprints of ancestors" by Jacques Chobe

Footprints of ancestors

Over the mountains

To cross a valley or river

You walk across the world

Come with God

Come with the spirit

ꆏꇁꇁꇁꇁꇁꌊꂰꑟꇁ (you go through history to the present)

He's got a spear, a bow on his shoulder, and he's chasing the sun and the moon

He's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one

A hunting life by lifting up the skirt leg and pulling up the trouser leg

You're the one who loves you (oats on the back of a sheepskin bag)

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

ꐥꀕꉠꅿꋏꋏꂿꇷꋠ

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

(hero I, my ancestor is Nuosu)

ꆏꊾꂓꊿꈨꇎꌠ

Your heart was like a sea

(your measurement was like a cliff)

(your measurement was like a cliff)

ꆏꊾꂓꊿꈨꇎꌠ

Your heart was like a sea

(your measurement was like a cliff)

(your measurement was like a cliff)

A bird's wings beat before it wants to fly

The first step in a bullfight

The horse is as fast as the wind

He's a warrior. He's a warrior. He's a warrior. He's a warrior

Fu Fu (I'm from Yi)

Fu Fu (I'm from Yi)

Fu Fu (I'm from Yi)

ꆏꇁꇁꇁꇁꇁꌊꂰꑟꇁ (you go through history to the present)

A long spear on the back

He's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one who's the one
