Cesaria Evora - Sodade (Tribute & biography)(with lyrics @ the description )

[deserteagle1010]

Who show this far path

who show this far path,

that path for São Tomé?

Nostalgia, nostalgia, nostalgia from my land, São Nicolau.

If I have to write I have much to write,

If I have to forget I have much to forget,

until the day I will return...

Nostalgia, nostalgia, nostalgia from my land, São Nicolau.

Lyrics are something like that when translated to english...

As palavras da música parecem ser :

Quem mostrava esse caminho longe, Quem mostrava esse caminho longe, esse caminho pr'a São Tomé.

Saudade, Saudade, Saudade, dessa minha terra São Nicolau.

Saudade, Saudade, Saudade, dessa minha terra São Nicolau.

Se vou escrever, muito escrever, se vou esquecer muito esquecer até o dia que vou voltar ! bis

Saudade, Saudade, Saudade, dessa minha terra São Nicolau. bis, bis

Linda música !

@teoath2

I don't speak very well english but is something near that

Who showed the way for far, (2x)

The way for São Tomé

Sick of home, sick of home, sick of home, of my land São Nicolau (2x)

If I go write, write a lot, If I go forget, forget a lot, until the I will come back (2x)

Sick of home,....

[LinaLinette1]

@LinaLinette1

Sorry forgot the word "day"

, until the day I will come back

@teoath2 "Who showed you such a distant road, who showed you such a distant road, this road to Sao Tome. Sodade, sodade Sodade of my land Sao Nicolau. If you wright to me, i will wright back, if you forget me. i will forget you untill the day we return" Hope i helped

[eminem19752]

@teoath2 offcourse in order to understand the music, she is refering to times when a large amount of cape verdians emigrated to São Tome (among other countires) from her an Island in Cape Verde Called Sao Nicolau. (Among other islands also)

Hola, aimmaster18. Muchas gracias por subir esta maravillosa canción, que casi no se puede encontrar en YouTube. Tu video es muy bueno. Y creo que la letra es así: "Quem mostrâ bô ess caminho longe, quem mostrâ bô ess caminho longe, ess caminho pa São Tomé? Sodade, sodade, sodade dess nha terra, Sâo Nicolau. Si bô screvê me m' tâ screvê be, si bô squecê me m' tâ squecê be até dia qui bô voltâ. Sodade, sodade, sodade dess nha terra, Sâo Nicolau." un saludo desde Granada, España

@elwinagre Though I don't speak Spanish, thanks for informing me about the correct lyrics! Greetings :)

[Musicainme]

@aimmaster18 Cesaria Evora was from Cabo Verde Islands, she spoke portuguese creole and not spanish, just for your info.

[budyssiner]

it is 'Dess nha terra d'San Nicolau'

but otherwise - no mistake ;-)

[LinaLinette1]

@budyssiner

It's "dessa minha terra São Nicolau"

[magoulianitissa]

Υπέροχη Cesaria!!!!

[aimmaster18]

@magoulianitissa Συμφωνώ. Το κάθε τραγούδι της αντιπροσωπεύει και κάτι, έχει ουσία. Εμένα μ΄ αρέσει ιδιαίτερα η φωνή της και η μελωδία των τραγουδιών της. Με ταξιδεύει..

Ευχαριστώ για το σχόλιο.
