Manxi ta sunha kordadu
Fla ma pobréza ka pa el
Ma trabadju kre sta-l mutu kansadu
Mana sta nóba bunita
Manxi ta sunha kordadu
Fla ma pobréza ka pa el
Ma trabadju kre sta-l mutu kansadu
Nton, e fasi un bistidu nobu
E sai di si kutélu
Ba Praia Santa Maria
Ba ranja kazamentu
E fazi un bistidu novu
E sai di si kutélu
Ba Praia Santa Maria
Ba ranja kasamentu
Mana ba sidadi grandi
Fla amen na sakramentu
Se mai nen ka sabi del
Pai dja duenti so disgostu
Mána ba sidadi grandi
Fla amen na sakramentu
So ki skese di si gintis
K'e dexa na sufrimentu
Mana ka kre kel k'é di-sel
É so ta djobi pa ladu
Kel ki Nhordés da-l é poku pa el
E fla m'e sta mutu mal kalsadu
Mana ka kre kel k'é di-sel
É so ta djobi pa ladu
Kel ki Nhordés da-l é poku pa el
E fla m'e sta mutu mal kalsadu
Nton, e fazi un bistidu nobu
E sai di si kutélu
Ba Praia Santa Maria
Ba ranja kazamentu
E fazi un bistidu novu
E sai di si kutélu
Ba Praia Santa Maria
Ba ranja kazamentu
Mana ba sidadi grandi
Fla amen na sakramentu
Se mai nen ka sabi del
Pai dja duenti so disgostu
Mána ba sidadi grandi
Fla amen na sakramentu
So ki skese di si gentis
K'e dexa na sofrimentu
Mana ba sidadi grandi, o
Tiru sai-l pa kulatra
Tiru sai-l pa kulatra
Mother
Mother, you're so beautiful
You always dream of a better life
Even if poverty isn't for you
But work makes you feel so damn tired
Mother, you're so beautiful
You always dream of a better life
Even if poverty isn't for you
But work makes you feel so damn tired
So, you make a new dress
And you step out in style
To Santa Maria Beach
To celebrate a wedding
You make a new dress
And you step out in style
To Santa Maria Beach
To celebrate a wedding
Mother, in the big city
You find peace in the sacrament
If no one knows about it
Dad's just full of disappointment
Mother, in the big city
You find peace in the sacrament
Only the scars of your struggles
Leave you in suffering
Mother doesn't want what’s for her
She just keeps pushing through
What the North gives her is little for her
And she says I'm feeling so damn worn out
Mother doesn't want what’s for her
She just keeps pushing through
What the North gives her is little for her
And she says I'm feeling so damn worn out
So, you make a new dress
And you step out in style
To Santa Maria Beach
To celebrate a wedding
You make a new dress
And you step out in style
To Santa Maria Beach
To celebrate a wedding
Mother, in the big city
You find peace in the sacrament
If no one knows about it
Dad's just full of disappointment
Mother, in the big city
You find peace in the sacrament
Only the scars of your struggles
Leave you in suffering
Mother, in the big city, oh
You step out to the dance floor
You step out to the dance floor
