Cesária Évora "Saiona d'Vinte Ano" lyrics

Translation to:enfr

Saiona d'Vinte Ano

Saiona d'Vinte OneJa soma na cabeçadaPal bem conta o qu'el ouviMa el ca conta quel palmadaQu'es da sê filha Zizi

Hora q'bô conta um conteContal tintin por tintinCa bô crescental um pontoPa-s ca levob pa Furtin

The Big Skirt of Twenty Years

The big skirt of twenty yearsComes along with her mischiefTo tell what she just heardBut doesn't tell about the slapThat her daughter Zizi received

When you tell a story next timeTell it step-by-stepWithout blowing it out of proportionOr else they'll take you away to Fortim
