Tunuka

Tunuka has gone awayNo one has the courage of my TunukaShe has no fear of the darknessHer spirit has no concern for it and her heart even lessTunuka, we've left, we've returnedand we've stayed here

Let our hearts be as oneHenceforth we have our nationalityLet us hold on to our true valuesand leave aside what is unimportant

We went to São Tomé seeking for workAnd suffered every humiliation thereI was there with youand everything I was given, I shared with youWe tried to earn our daily bread:There were days with and days withoutAnd we had no choicebut to share what others were willing to give us

Tunuka, it is not a sin to love youI don’t know what you are willing to give mebut I know I only wish for what comes from you

Tunuka, Tunuka, TunukaTunuka, Tunuka, this is what I wanted to say to you.
