Cabo Verde Terra Estimada [English translation]
Cabo Verde Terra Estimada [English translation]
Oh Cape Verde, my beloved land
Land of peace and joy
Nobody you have embraced
dares to go, and stay
And those who have to leave will cry
Such ten little pieces of land
that God scattered across the sea
belong to us, they were not stolen in wars
This is Cape Verde, my beloved land
Oh Cape Verde, my beloved land
Land of peace and joy
Nobody you have embraced
dares to go, and stay
And those who have to leave will cry
This little brown girl cries with "sodade"
she has you on her mind
and cries for her deepest memories
of a time where there was no suffering
Oh Cape Verde, my beloved land
Land of peace and joy
Nobody you have embraced
dares to go, and stay
And those who have to leave will cry
