🎤 LYRICS
(Intro – bruits de foule, tambours, kabosy en montée, voix de jeunes qui s’échauffent)
Une voix crie :
“Tanora eeeh! Ainga miaraka amin’ny feo iray eeeeh!”
Des mains frappent, un chœur répond :
“Iray! Iray! Iray!”
La musique explose.

(Scène 1 – Couplet 1 : portrait de la jeunesse)
Tanora tsy matory, tanora mifoha.
Mitady fiainana tsara kokoa,
fa tsy mandao ny fomban-drazana.
Eo amin’ny lalana, misy kabosy, misy valiha,
ny fiainana mihodina amin’ny gadona.

Les jeunes dansent, les plus vieux sourient.
Les lampes du village s’allument,
et la nuit devient leur scène.
“Tsy kivy, tsy reraka, fa manohy ny dihy!”

(Pré-refrain – chœur homogène, énergie montante)
Ny tanora no hery, ny fo no gadona.
Miaraka isika, tsy misy ambany na ambony.
La jeunesse, c’est le souffle du pays.
“Ainga, ry tanora, ainga!”

(Refrain – grand chœur mixte, call & response)
Tanora Iray! (hey hey!)
Miaraka amin’ny fo sy tanana!
Tanora Iray! (woo woo!)
Ny firaisana no herin’ny firenena!
Tanora Iray! (yeah yeah!)
Amin’ny hafaliana, amin’ny Salegy!
Tanora Iray! (heeeh!)
Ainga ny taranaka vaovao, tsy mijanona!

(Scène 2 – Couplet 2 : le message)
Voix masculine :
Raha miara-mandihy isika, tsy misy fahavalo.
Voix féminine :
Raha mihaino isika, tsy misy ady.
Tous deux :
Ny feo dia hery, ny hira dia firaisana.

(Outro – cri collectif et fade out des tambours)
“Tanora Iray! Tsy mijanona ny fitiavana!”
Les tambours s’éteignent dans les applaudissements.
