Odjus Fitxadu

Ôji ta djôbi pa seu/ Kêl ki-m ôdja foi strelas 
ta fla-m m-o bai p-o ka bem màs, krêtxeu
 Pidi anjus di Deus/ Pa bem buska un mudjêr
 ki ka krê lêba sê vida sêm bu amor bu amor…

/Rainha na disampàru/ ‘N sta djôbi kaminhu/
ku spada y forsa di sodadi y dor/ Ku alma livri na tempu/
 ‘N krê vivi ku ôdjus fitxadu/
 pa-m têne-u djuntu ku mi/ ku mi...

(With My Eyes Shut)
When I looked at the sky today
All I could see were stars
Telling me that you are gone forever, my love

Do beseech God’s angels
To come and get this woman
Who refuses to go on living without your love
Your love…

Sovereign queen over gloom
I seek a way out
Bearing the sword and the power of longing and pain

With my soul free in time
I vow to live with my eyes shut
And thus keep you with me,
With me
