Ausencia - Cesária Evora

Si asa um tivesse

Pa voa na esse distancia

Si um gazela um fosse

Pa corre sem nem um cansera

Anton ja na bo seio

Um tava ba manche

E nunca mas ausencia

Ta ser nos lema

Ma so na pensamento

Um ta viaja sem medo

Nha liberdade um te’l

E so na nha sonho

Na nha sonho mieforte

Um tem bo protecao

Um te so bo carinho

E bo sorriso

Ai solidao to’me

Sima sol sozim na ceu

So ta brilha ma ta cega

Na se clarao

Sem sabe pa onde lumia

Pa onde bai

Ai solidao e un sina…

If I had wings

To fly this distance

If I was a gazela

To run without getting tired

So in your arms

I would be And never again absence

Would be our motto

But only in thoughts

I travel without fear

I have only freedom

On my own dreams

In my strongest dreams

I have your protection

I have your careing

And your smile

Oh loneliness

Up there the sun alone in the sky

It is bright but blind

In it’s light

Without knowing where to give light

Where to go Loneliness is sina

If as a had

Peafly in this distance

If one gazelle one were

Pa runs without even a tired

Anton already on the breast

Um tava bamanche

And never is absent

Ta be in the motto

But so in thought

A ta travels without fear

Nha freedom um te'l

E only na dream

Na nha dream mieforte

One has good protection

A lot of affection

And bo smile

Ai solidao to'me

Sima sun alone was born

So ta brights dead blind

If clear

Without knowing where to light

Where do you go

Ai solidao is un sina...

If I had wings

To fly this distance

If I was a gazelle

To run without getting tired

So in your arms

I would be And never again absence

Would be our motto

But only in thoughts

I travel without fear

I have only freedom

On my own dreams

In my strong dreams

I have your protection

I have your caring

And your smile

Oh loneliness

Up there the sun alone in the sky

It is bright but blind

In it's light

Without knowing where to give light

Where to go Loneliness is sina
