Bomu Kêlê [English translation]

We met in the middle of the sea

Two islands that form a country

Everything we need is there

We just have to believe and move forward

Let's join hands in a single heart

Let's believe in school, in work

And in everything that we can do

We will make it because we will see

São Tomé and Príncipe developing

With all our strength with all our heart

Let's believe in school, in work

And in everything that we can do

All our brothers with all our sisters

Let's believe in everything we have

We have cocoa, we have bananas

We have coconut trees, we have flying fish

We have land, we have water êêê

Fresh coconut with breadfruit and coffee

Look at what we can do

With everything in our land

Eh ah, eh eh, eh ah

Eh eh, eh ah, eh eh eh iii

We will make it because we will see

São Tomé and Príncipe developing

With all our strength with all our heart

Let's believe in school, in work

And in everything that we can do
