Saharasand [English translation]

Yesterday the sun was much bigger than usual

and the light was much brighter, too

So I got more energy

and I walked faster automatically

I wanted to visit an old friend

but on my way I remembered

that we are not friends anymore,

so I rather did not do it.

And the sun shone so strongly

so my reason burned

And it asked - what is more dangerous,

racist police or Sahara sand?

Hmmmm, Sahara sand...

What kind of comparison is that even,

that sounds so brain-fried.

Are there such police

in our homeland?

And if there are they don't do me harm

because I'm far too white

for me the sun is more dangerous,

that's the proof.

And I wiped the sweat

from my forehead with one hand

And it asked - what is more dangerous,

racist police or Sahara sand?

Hmmmm, Sahara sand...

I just looked at my hand,

it had never talked before.

Why had it broken its silence

right now?

And then I remembered the black man

who burned up in a cell,

that was such a strange accident

that nobody knew it yet.

He caught fire on a plank bed

chained in our land

And I asked - what is more dangerous,

racist police or Sahara sand?

Racist police or Sahara sand?
