Manu
Manú teve ki dexa se mai
El teve ki dexa se térra pa-l ba pa térra lonje
Mama fla-l: Fidje, ka bo bai
N ka ta podê guentá sen bo
N ta morrê so di sodade
Manú teve ki dexa se mai
El teve ki dexa se térra pa-l ba pa térra lonje
Mama fla-l: Fidje, ka bo bai
N ka ta podê guentá sen bo
N ta morrê so di sodade
Su N ka ba, no ta morrê di fóm
Sen ken spiá pa nos
Sen papa, no ten ki trabadja
Pa no ka padesê
Su N ka ba, no ta morrê di fóm
Sen ken spiá pa nos
Sen papa, no ten ki trabadja
Pa no ka padesê
Ón pasóde se pai morrê
Vítima dun duénsa diferente
El fika so ku se mai
Puris oje el ta na stranjer
Ta luta kóntra mar i vénte pa fazê si mai felis
El regresa es ón pa se térra
El ben brasa se mai
Un mes dipos el torna ba stranjer
Ku dukumentu d'imigrante
El regresa es ón pa se térra
El ben brasa se mai
Un mes dipos el torna ba stranjer
Ku dukumentu d'imigrante
Manú teve ki dexa se mai
El teve ki dexa se térra pa-l ba pa térra lonje

Manu
Manu had to leave his mom
He had to leave his land to go to a faraway place
Mom told him: Son, don’t go
I can’t stand being without you
I’m dying just from the loneliness
Manu had to leave his mom
He had to leave his land to go to a faraway place
Mom told him: Son, don’t go
I can’t stand being without you
I’m dying just from the loneliness
If I don’t go, I won’t die from hunger
Without anyone to watch over us
Without dad, we have to work
So we don’t suffer
If I don’t go, I won’t die from hunger
Without anyone to watch over us
Without dad, we have to work
So we don’t suffer
Once upon a time, his dad died
Victim of a different disease
He’s left alone with his mom
Today he’s in a foreign land
Fighting against the sea and wind to make his mom happy
He returns home to his land
He hugs his mom
A month later he goes back to the foreign land
With an immigrant document
He returns home to his land
He hugs his mom
A month later he goes back to the foreign land
With an immigrant document
