Lyrics
Quando eu cheguei
No porão desse veleiro
Tinha um dia atrás do outro
Oh mar e a fé no mundo inteiro
Fiz a cidade
Massa, ferro, pedra e cal
Bebo o vinho da suadade
Oh mar que me afoga no quintal
Limpo o sour
À palma da mão cansada
Largo e remo, pego a pá
Oh mar deixo a ilha, pego nada
E se eu voltar
À praia do chão salgado
Cantos mornas ao luar
Oh mar com um jeitinho de fado
Lyrics translation
When I arrived
In the basement of that sailboat
Had one day after another
Oh Sea and faith in the whole world
I made the city
Dough, Iron, Stone and lime
I drink the wine of sweat
Oh Sea that drowns me in the yard
Clean the sour
To the tired Palm
Go and paddle, I take the shovel
Oh Sea I leave the island, I catch nothing
What if I come back
To the beach of the Salgado floor
Warm Moonlight corners
Oh Sea with a fairy tale
