English Poetic Translation:
I see the love flow in the eyes of the mother;
Tenderness and joy have overcome the father.
Through the eyes of their very first born,
I discover hope, I contemplate the future.
He is beautiful, full of life and full of promise;
He is beautiful, full of life, and a carrier of hope.
Akeem, Akeem… the voice of the future.
Akeem, Akeem… Akeem is his name.
Life on the wings of love
Once again burst out the sweet symphony.
This splendor exploded time
For us to discover the buds of spring.
He is beautiful, full of life and full of promise;
He is beautiful, full of life, and a carrier of hope.
Akeem, Akeem… the voice of the future.
Akeem, Akeem… Akeem is his name.
The birth of a child is an expression of love,
A carrier of joy, of hope and of peace.
The birth of a child renews the world
And the voices of the future will sing forever.
Akeem, Akeem… the voice of the future.
Akeem, Akeem… Akeem is his name.
The birth of a child, that is the hope for tomorrow!

À travers les regards de leur tout premier-né,
Je découvre l’espoir, je contemple l’avenir.
Il est beau, plein de vie et rempli de promesses;
Il e... less
