Song For My Father

This is a song for my dad who spent his whole life at seaEss ê um canção pa nha pai qui passá tud sê vida na mar
On the edge of that shipNa bord daquês navio
He works, travels, and cries with longing to come backEl ta trabalha viaja ta tchora sodade di volta
Fighting to surviveTa luta pam vivê

But he always comes backMa sempre el ta voltá
Full of joy to give meChei d’ ligria pa dam
After so much time at seaDipôs de tont temp na mar
My dadNha pai

This is a song to honor his example, his legacy to meEss ê um canção pa exalta sê exempl sê herança pa mim

Strength of will, loveForça de vontade, carinh
A life where everything is a struggle, traveling, conquering the worldUm vida tud ta luta ta viaja ta conquista tud mund
It seems never-endingNote ta parecê sem fim

But he always comes backMa sempre el ta voltá
Full of joy to give meChei d’ligria pa dam
After so much time at seaDepôs de tont temp na mar

My dadNha pai
