Vento de Sueste

Ja'm pidi Deus na céue nha Virgem Mariaquê pás dam' um morininha pa'm amápa'm crê tcheu pa tiram'dêss nha triste solidão

Ja'm tive um cretcheuque 'm amá pirdido tcheuÊl dixa'm sem um porquêmi inocente sem sabê

Nha inocência foi grande di másma deus ca ta dromi el ta julga'lnêss mundo ca era másum vento de sueste leva'm êlnha coraçon fcá isolado

Wind from the southeast

Already I asked God in the skyAnd my Virgin MaryWho gave me peace a little brunette for me to loveFor me to want more for taking away from meThis sad solitude of mine

Already I had a belovedWho loved me very lostHe left me without a reasonMe innocent without knowing

My innocence was too greatBut God doesn't sleep he judges himIn this world there wasn't anything elseA wind from the southeast brought him to meMy heart remained isolated
