Ondas di bô corpo [English translation]

In the waves of your body, I surfed with my hand

in the water of your kisses, you killed my thirst

in light of your look, lighted me the way

I sheltered my love in that paradise

longing, invaded my chest

disconsolately, without tranquility, without a dream

longing, invaded my chest

disconsolately, without tranquility, without a dream

but I'm sure that

you are my queen

oh, Cape Verdean mulatto
