Vapor Di Imigrason

Vapor of Immigration

Vapor Di Imigrason

Oh, God, in the sacrifice of the strangerÓ, Deus, no sakrifísiu di stranjeru
My heart lives lostNha kurason vivi pertadu
So much suffering enduredFoi tantu sufri kaladu
With longing, with pain that never leaves us aloneKu sodadi, ku dor ki nunka rega nos txon

Oh, sea, receive this mourning, we give to youÓ, mar, resebe es mórna bu ntrega-s
Tell them that one day our children won’t feel this longing anymoreFla-s ma un dia nos fidjus ka al xinti más sodadi
We won’t cry for our kids who goNos mai ka al txora ses fidjus ki bai
To distant lands, on the vapor of immigrationPa téra lonji, na vapor di imigrason

My people, children of hopeNha povu, fidju speransa
We stand firm, we unite as oneNu finka pe, nu djunta mon
And every day we grow strongerI kada dia al ser más grandi
With the strength of our traditionsKu forsa des tradison

Wind, carry us around the worldBéntu spadja-nu na mundu
In the struggle with the sea, we weren’t afraidNa labuta ku mar nu foi balenti
We try to break the stone, reclaim our prideNu tenti pédra, rabata orgudju
