Mar Azul

O Mar,Detá quitinho bô dixam baiBô dixam bai spiá nha terraBô dixam bai salvá nha Mâe... Oh Mar

Mar azul, subi mansinhoLua cheia lumiam caminhoPam ba nha terra di meuSão Vicente pequinino,Pam ba braçá nha cretcheu

O Mar,Anô passá tempo corrêSol raiá, lua saiA mi ausente na terra longe...O Mar

Blue Sea

Oh seaPlease calm your waves and let me goPlease let me go see my land once morePlease let me save my Mother, oh sea

Blue sea, slowly rise your tideFull moon, give me light on my wayso I can go to my landGo to my little São Vicente1and hug my love...

Oh seaThe years pass by and time fliesThe sun comes up and the moon leaves the skyAnd I'm still away from my land...Oh Sea
