Di Undi Kim Bem

Di undi kim bemTem stória transadu ku tchoruMúsica tchoradu ki ta conta sodadi di terra longi

Di undi kim bemTem um spritu kambadu na alma di povoTem un arvi tamanhu sima coraçon di mundu

Di undi kim bemTem mudjer preta ki pari mininu mulatuTem lua cheia pa ilumina sukuro di tudu kau berdi

La di undi kim bemTem um história calado guardado na tempuUm txeru, um misterio marcadu na peli

La di undi kim bemLua cheia ta cayma tormentaDi kes correnti ki guentis d'Africa traze um diaMaradu na pe, maradu na mon, sotadu na corpo.

La di undi kim bemKim ka volta más

Where I Came From

There where I came fromThere are stories to weep over mournful songsThat tell of homesickness for a distant land

There where I came fromThere’s a spirit in the people’s soulA tree the size of the world’s heart

There where I came fromBlack women had mulatto childrenThe full moon lights the darkness of all Cape Verde

There where I came fromThere’s a secret history kept by timeA perfume, a mystery imprinted on the skin

There where I came fromThe full moon soothes the tormentOf the chains people once brought from AfricaFastened to their ankles and wrists, lashed on their bodies

There where I came fromI’ve never gone back to that place
