waving flag是他今年2月底发行的专辑《游吟诗人》中的一首歌，歌曲带有浓郁的非洲气息，表达了对这片充满战火 、贫穷和落后的土地不离不弃的热爱。在今年9月国际足联举行的世界杯主题曲征集中，克南将自己的歌曲寄给了国际足联，最终被国际足联所认可，成为了南非世界杯的主题歌。之后，克南已经联手西班牙歌手David Bisbal特别为世界杯重新制作一款混音版的《waving flag》用于宣传。

西柚不是西游-
waving flag第一版应该是和可口可乐合作的，现在在wiki上能查到已经放出的多国版本有：阿拉伯版（跟Nancy Ajram合作），巴西版（跟Skank合作），中国版（介过不做多说鸟～），法国版（跟Féfé合作），希腊版（跟Professional Sinnerz和Komis x合作），印度尼西亚版（跟Ipang合作），日本版（跟Ai合作），尼日利亚版（跟Banky W和M.I合作），拉丁语版（跟David Bisbal合作），泰国版（跟Tatto Colour合作），越南版（跟Phu"ang Vy合作），海地版赈灾版（MikaBen和various artists）～
第二版是重新编曲过的，我想可能是因为k"naan是索马里第一rapper的原因，连词都重新填了一遍，只保留了一部分原词，但是要表达的东西跟可口可乐版还是差很远的～
附上两首歌的歌词，希望帮到你～（我也大爱这首歌～）
Waving flag
（可口可乐版：Coca Cola Celebration mix）
Give me freedom
Give me fire
Give me reason
Take me higher
See the champions
Take the field now
Unify us
Make us feel proud
In the streets
Our heads are lifting
As we lose our inhibition
Celebration it"s around us
Every nation
All around us
Singing forever young
Singing songs underneath that sun
Let"s rejoice in the beautiful game
And together at the end of the day
WE ALL SAY
When I get older I will be stronger
They"ll call me freedom
Just like a waving flag
So wave your flag
And wave your flag
And everybody will be singing it
And we all will be singing it
（第二版）
[Chorus]
When I get older, I will be stronger,
They"ll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag,
And then it goes back, and then it goes back,
And then it goes back
Born to a throne, stronger than Rome
but Violent prone, poor people zone,
But it"s my home, all I have known,
Where I got grown, streets we would roam.
But out of the darkness, I came the farthest,
Among the hardest survival.
Learn from these streets, it can be bleak,
Except no defeat, surrender retreat,
So we struggling, fighting to eat and
We wondering when we"ll be free,
So we patiently wait, for that fateful day,
It"s not far away, so for now we say
[Chorus]
When I get older, I will be stronger,
They"ll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag,
And then it goes back, and then it goes back,
And then it goes back
So many wars, settling scores,
Bringing us promises, leaving us poor,
I heard them say, love is the way,
Love is the answer, that"s what they say,
But look how they treat us, Make us believers,
We fight their battles, then they deceive us,
Try to control us, they couldn"t hold us,
Cause we just move forward like Buffalo Soldiers.
But we struggling, fighting to eat,
And we wondering, when we"ll be free
So we patiently wait, for that faithful day,
It"s not far away, but for now we say,
[Chorus] 2x
When I get older, I will be stronger,
They"ll call me freedom, just like a Waving Flag,
And then it goes back, and then it goes back,
And then it goes back

先说明一下这首歌不是真正的主题曲。主题曲应该是《waza waza》，中文译名叫《南非时刻》。而《waving flag》则应该称作世界杯主题推广歌曲，当然这并不妨碍它的好听啦！
这首歌最初是克南收录在专辑《游吟诗人》里的，主要写的是他的家乡索马里的局势，后来被选中作为世界杯歌曲。克南为此特地重新录制了一首混音版，并且歌词也不大一样，更加配合世界杯的欢乐气氛了。我们平常听到最多的就是这个版本了。
其实这首歌版本还不止这些。以我看到的，有加拿大群星为了海地赈灾录制的一个合唱版、一个克南与一个西班牙歌手合唱的双语版、一个有黑眼豆豆一起录制的版本、中文也有一个版本叫《旗开得胜》张靓颖和张学友唱的好像、当然还有各国语言版和各种各样的现场版本。。。MV的版本也非常多，也说不上来哪个是正式的了。
总之这首歌个人是非常喜爱了，相信它也会载入世界杯史册的吧。
