Jardim Prometido [English translation]

That green of your name already promises us a lot

In a flowery garden, the river is flowing

Vale de Paúl is a sampling of fertility

When an abundant cloud is giving me its love

Water is falling hope is blossoming

In that former time when the world was the world

That golden apple of yours called giving

Rain, anger, and that of goodness

Today transformed into a story known by ear

But our will and hope is greater

That garden in our dream dies here

The force of perseverance still is cultivating

Cape Verde is green in our heart

Our land of our greenery full of love

We always wait for that great day

Where every child has their part of the greenness

We want to live in a land of friendship

Unraveling in the middle of happiness

A promised garden is flowering full of peace
