Terra Longe
Maria Alice (Cabo Verde)
Faraway Land
Faraway land, faraway land
Faraway land where there are no gentle people to eat people
I ride a horse where I go to a faraway land
Faraway land, faraway land
Faraway land where there are no gentle people to eat people
I ride a horse where I go to a faraway land
I already know a big land
I already know a wiser land
One day I miss my land São Vicente
Oh, I come to save my mother in her indigo dress that covers our land
That indigo dress that covers our land
From faraway land, from faraway land
One day I come to see our blue sea cry on the sand
I hear our Creole girl singing like a mermaid
I already know a big land
I already know a wiser land
One day I miss my land São Vicente
Oh, I come to save my mother in her indigo dress that covers our land
That indigo dress that covers our land
I already know a big land
I already know a wiser land
One day I miss my land São Vicente
Oh, I come to save my mother in her indigo dress that covers our land
That indigo dress that covers our land
That indigo dress that covers our land
