Prêce Di Um Fidjo

Hello, hello, Cape Verde, hello
Poor land but full of life
This is a prayer for your child
Who’s far away but never forgets you

Hello, hello, Cape Verde, hello
Poor land but full of life
This is a prayer for your child
Who’s far away but never forgets you

Days go by, days come
Time keeps passing, always far from my homeland
But I have no faith, without faith
I won’t live there even in my last days

Days go by, days come
Time keeps passing, always far from my homeland
But I have no faith, without faith
I won’t live there even in my last days

I want to see you just one more time
Carnival, San Jon, where you at?
I want to live together with my people
Dance, laugh, stomp my feet on the ground

There everything is sweeter
Everything is more alive
It’s a flavor

There everything is sweeter
Everything is more alive
It’s a flavor
