Nha Cancera ka Tem Medida

My Exhaustion Has No Bounds

La da da da la la la...

Oh nha guente

Oh my people

Nha cancera ka tem medida

My exhaustion has no bounds

Oh nha guente

Oh my people

Oh qu'afronta qu'm passa

Oh the outrages that I have suffered

Trinta ano di Sao Tomé

Thirty years in São Tomé

Leva'm familia

Take me to my family

Dixa'm mi sô

Leave me alone

Cu nha tristeza e nha sodade

With my sadness and my longing

Oh oi oi nhos leva'm ca nhôs dixa'm

Oh oi oi take me, don't you leave me

Cabo verde é qu'é nha terra

Cape Verde is my country

'M qu'rê volta ma'm ca podê

I want to return but I cannot

C'atcha ninguem pa da'me di mon

I haven't found anyone to give me a hand

(refrain)
