Suite Dos Pescadores
Dorival Caymmi
Fishermen's Suite
My brother Caymmi, I would like,
To hear your poetry,
And tell us about the fisherman's song...
Let's sail in the same sea of nostalgia...
And remember the day...
Of a fishing trip... in Salvador...
My raft will set sail to the sea,
I'll work, my beloved,
If God wills, when I return,
From the sea,
I'll bring a good fish...
My companions will also return,
And we'll thank God in heaven!
Goodbye, Goodbye...
Fisherman, don't forget me!
I'll pray for good weather,
My dear,
So there won't be bad weather...
I'll make your bed soft...
Perfumed with rosemary...
Pedro! Pedro! Pedro!
Chico! Chico! Chico!
Nino! Nino! Nino!
Zeca! Zeca! Zeca!
Where are you, men of God?
I told José!
Don't go José! Don't go José!
My God!
With this weather, don't go out!
Who goes to the sea, who goes to the sea,
Doesn't come back!
Pedro! Pedro! Pedro...
Chico! Chico! Chico...
Nino! Nino! Nino...
Zeca! Zeca! Zeca...
It's so sad to see...
Someone leaving...
Whom we love...
With so much love...
And endure...
The agony...
Of waiting for them to return...
Living looking at the sky and the sea...
The uncertainty torturing... we are left alone...
So alone we are left alone...
So alone...
It's sad to wait...
An illness...
Entered paradise...
Goodbye! brother Goodbye!
Until Judgment Day!
Goodbye! brother Goodbye!
Until Judgment Day...
My raft will set sail to the sea,
I'll work, my beloved,
If God wills, when I return,
From the sea,
I'll bring a good fish...
My companions will also return
And we'll thank God in heaven!
