lyrics

Unidadi e Luta
Ka nhos skecê ma dia di txeu é bespa di poku
Omi faka Mudjé matxadu
Ben ma mi nha broda nes badju venenu
Ben ma mi nha broda
Li ke badju venenu
Ka nhos skecê dia di txeu é bespa di poku
Ka nhos txora sukundido
Pa mostra lágrima seku dentu rostu aian
Subrevivência é lei
Badju pa kes ki ta entendê
Pamodi bida é ka só bran bran
Kaminhu é retu retu
Na noti sukuru
É ba un bez
Ni ês ka ta sabê kuza kin sa ta fazê
Keli é kuza dodu pa li
Nta ba djobê nha kaminhu
Na badju sufoku
Skuru dja fitxa pa li
Keli é badju sufoku
Ni nka toma un grogu
Ni nka panha moku
É sma pabio seku ka ta sendê
Ma obra é mas grandi
É ka di méu
É ka di bô
Kel património é pa nôs fidju
Pa ês trâ
Ês baxa panhã
Pâ es baza lumi na ses kaminhu
Unidadi e Luta
Skuru dja fitxa pa li

ENG
Unity and struggle
Dont you forget that the day of much is the eve of less
Man have the knife
woman have the axe
Come with me my brother into the poison party
Come with me my brother
Here's where the poison dancefloor be
Don't you forget that the day of much is the eve of less
Don't you cry hidden
because it will show the dry tears in your face yes
Survival is the law
A party for those who understand
Because life is not only party times
The path is straight
in the dark night
and it goes one time
They don't have a clue what i'm doing here
This is crazy stuff
i'm going my way
In this suffocation dancefloor
Darkness as fallen
This is the suffocation dancefloor
I didn't drink a moonshine
I didn't got drunk
It's like a dry candle wick that doesn't light up
But the masterpiece is bigger
Is not mine
is not yours
This patrimony belong to our children
For them to collect
And follow their paths
and drop fire on their way
Unity and struggle
Darkness as fallen here
