Translation of the song lyrics Carta A Miguel Djéjé - Cristina Branco

Carta A Miguel Djéjé (original)

Diga amigo Miguel
Como est voc?
Em todo o Xipamanine
J ningum o v Vou dar-lhe a minha viola
Para tocar outra vez
O seu valor um dia
Voc mostrou
Todo o mainato o ouvia
E at danou
Miguel s voc sabia
Tocar como j tocou
Vinha maningue gente
Para aprender
Moda l da sua terra
Bonita a valer
O Jaime e o Etekinse
Amigos no volt’haver
Quando a noite se ouvia
Miguel tocar
Tambm havia a marimba
Para acompanhar
A noite
Na Ponta Geia
Amigos hei-de recordar
O barco foi andando
E a Nanga vi Foi a saudade aumentando
Longe da A gente
Na minha terra
No canta assim
Como eu ouvi

Carta A Miguel Djéjé (translation)

Tell friend Miguel
How are you?
All over the Xipamanine
No one sees you I'll give you my guitar
to play again
Your value one day
you showed
All the mainate listened to him
It damaged
Miguel if you knew
Play like you've played
came maningue people
To learn
Fashion from your country
Really beautiful
O Jaime and the Etekinse
Friends at volt'haver
When the night was heard
Miguel play
There was also the marimba
To go with
At night
At Ponta Geia
Friends I will remember
The boat was moving
And a Nanga saw It was the longing increasing
Away from The people
In my land
Don't sing like that
as I heard
