Fogueira Doce

Sweet Bonfire

Fogueira Doce

Sweet bonfireFogueira doce
Sun rising earlySol madrugando
It's Luanda and that's itÉ Luanda e basta
Divine beautyBeleza divinal
WonderMaravilha
It's the sun settingÉ o Sol se pondo
It's Luanda and that's itÉ Luanda e basta
Unparalleled beautyBeleza sem igual

In this golden Shangri-LaÉ nesse Shangri-La dourado
I dream of other livesQue sonho já de outras vidas
Mermaid in this sea of dreamsSereia nesse mar de sonhos
Dancing in colorful ritualsBailando em ritos coloridos
Luanda, mysteryLuanda, mistério
It rescued my lifeResgatou-me a vida

AloneSó
When I came to this worldQuando eu vim pra esse mundo
I showed my faceEu mostrei minha cara
Without fooling aroundSem marcar bobeira
I sang my songCantei o meu canto
And stayed hereE fiquei por cá
Charming thingCoisa castiça
Such a beautiful thingCoisa tão bonita
Such a cheerful thingCoisa tão faceira
I sang my songCantei o meu canto
And saw LuandaE vi Luanda

Creole gentlenessMeiguice crioula
Gentle CreoleCrioula meiguice
It's just a rose and that's itÉ só rosa e basta
I was born to love youNasci pra lhe amar
I lived beautifullyConvivi bonito
With my eccentricityCom minha esquisitice
It's just a rose and that's itÉ só rosa e basta
I was born to adore youNasci pra lhe adorar

I who came from other landsEu que vinha de outras terras
Dealing with my woundsTratando das minhas feridas
Brought from a troubled lifeTrazidas de uma vida aflita
My traumas Freud can't explainMeus traumas Freud não explica
I found the roseEu encontrei a rosa
And became a rose growerE me tornei roseiro

AloneSó
When I came to this worldQuando eu vim pra esse mundo
I showed my faceEu mostrei minha cara
Without fooling aroundSem marcar bobeira
I sang my songCantei o meu canto
And stayed hereE fiquei por cá
Charming thingCoisa castiça
Such a beautiful thingCoisa tão bonita
Such a cheerful thingCoisa tão faceira
I sang my songCantei o meu canto
And saw LuandaE vi Luanda
