Beijo de Saudade [English translation]

Sacred waves of the Tejo

Let me kiss your waters

Let me grant you with a kiss

A kiss of sorrow

A kiss of longing

For you to carry it to the sea and the sea to bring it to my land

My land is that small one

It is Cabo Verde, that which is mine

A land, which, on the sea, looks like a child

It is the son of the ocean

It is the son of the sky

Land of my mother

Land of my love

In your crystalline waves

Let me kiss you

On this girl mouth of yours

Let me grant you with a kiss, oh Tejo

A kiss of sorrow

A kiss of longing

For you to carry it to the sea and the sea to bring it to my land

Dixám'dábu um beijo

Deixa-me dar-te um beijo, óh Tejo

Um beijo de saudade

Para levar ao mar e o mar à minha terra

Para levar ao mar e o mar à minha terra
