    Salif Kéïta - where can I find translated lyrics?

    Was watching Michael Mann's Ali the other day, and I noticed the earth-shattering piece of music during the Ali vs Foreman fight at the end.

    Turns out the song is called Tomorrow, by Salif Kéïta, and it's quite something. Enjoyed it so much I went and picked up his 2002 album, Moffou.

    There's some great sounding songs, and the way his voice combines with the soft-sounding instruments is blissful. Trouble is, I've no idea what he's saying. Does anybody know where I might be able to find some translated lyrics?

    For those who aren't aware of the African singer but are now curious, here's a link to Tomorrow on YouTube: http://youtube.com/watch?v=jZM4NIVIOUI

    He's originally from Mali, so I presume he's singing in French/Bambara

    Maybe ask Google to set up a Bambara > English translator
