Raíses(original) |
| Velhas pedras que pisei |
| Saiam da vossa mudez |
| Venham dizer o que sei |
| Venham falar português |
| Sejam duras como a lei |
| E puras como a nudez |
| Minha lágrima salgada |
| Caíu no lenço da vida |
| Foi lembrança naufragada |
| E para sempre perdida |
| Foi vaga despedaçada |
| Contra o cais da despedida |
| Visitei tantos países |
| Conheci tanto luar |
| Nos olhos dos infelizes |
| E porque me hei-de gastar? |
| Vou ao fundo das raízes |
| E hei-de gastar-me a cantar |
| (translation) |
| Old stones that I stepped on |
| Get out of your dumbness |
| Come tell me what I know |
| come speak portuguese |
| Be tough as the law |
| And pure as nudity |
| my salty tear |
| Fell into the handkerchief of life |
| It was shipwrecked memory |
| And forever lost |
| It was shattered vacancy |
| Against the farewell pier |
| I visited so many countries |
| I knew so much moonlight |
| In the eyes of the unfortunate |
| And why should I spend it? |
| I go to the bottom of the roots |
| And I will spend myself singing |
