Bida Mariadu
by Lura
Áh ãh ãh
Eiá eiá eiá
Nha fidju undi bu stá
Nha mãe m-bá djôbi bida
Bida tristi bida mariadu
Pensa noti mó ki-n ta fasi
Corri dia nada-n ka t'atcha
Oi disisperu ma mundu ê
duêdu / ma Déus ê grandi
Áh ãh ãh
Eiá eiá eiá
Nha fidju perta cintura
Ka bu dizanima nau
Bida ka dadu di mon beijadu
Bu tem ki tem força di vontadi
Na pobreza é pa spéra tempu
Leba ku koragi nos dia-a-dia
Maior é poder di Déus
Fladu si mu poi mô nu ta djudadu
Nha fidju ka bu pára nau
Mó quem ki ta spera sempri t'alcança

cette musique me transporte loin dans le temps et l'espace. Elle me ramène à l'époque de mes ancêtres qui ont vécu dans la souffrance et l'isolement provoqués par quatre cents d'histoire. Comme Lura je suis originaire des Iles du Cabo Verde.
