Lyrics
Esse odjos de uva maduro
Dôs strela de ceu na bô rosto
Tanha de meu, nha Deusa, nha sonho
Dixam dormi um sono de amor
Nh’amor pa bô ô Tanha
Nem qui ondas de mar
Bêja areia
Bêja praia
Nh’amor pa bô ô Tanha
E amor de mas
Cretcheu de mar pa areia
De cada vez que m’lembra na bô
De céu caiba um strela
De tanto pensa na bô, ô Tanha
Céu ja ca tinha mas strela
TRADUCTION
Ces yeux de raisin mûr
Deux étoiles du ciel sur ton visage
Ma Tanha, ma déesse, mon songe,
Laisse-moi m’assoupir dans un sommeil d’amour
Mon amour pour toi ô Tanha
C’est plus que les vagues
Embrassant le sable
Embrassant la plage
Mon amour pour toi ô Tanha
C’est un amour sans limite
Passion de la mer pour le sable
Chaque fois que je pense à toi
S’il tombait une étoile
Je pense tellement à toi ô Tanha
Que le ciel serait sans étoile
Lyrics translation
This ripe grape odjos
Dôs strela de ceu in Bo face
Tanha of my, Nha Goddess, NHA dream
Dixam slept a sleep of love
NH'amor pa bo o Tanha
Nor qui sea waves
Beige sand
Bêja Beach
NH'amor pa bo o Tanha
And love of mas
Sea Cretaceous pa sand
Every time you remember me in the BO
From heaven fit a strela
From so much think of the bo, o Tanha
Heaven already had but strela
TRANSLATION
These ripe grape eyes
Two stars from the sky on your face
My Tanha, my goddess, my dream,
Let me fall asleep in a sleep of love
My Love For You O Tanha
It's more than the waves
Kissing the sand
Kissing the beach
My Love For You O Tanha
It is a love without limit
Passion of the sea for sand
Every time I think of you
If a star fell
I think so much of you O Tanha
That the sky would be without a star
