Ser Português

From the album A Voz da Alma

Melancholic Portuguese fado about identity and saudade — mournful guitar and heartfelt raspy vocals with subtle folk colours.
🕯 A poetic journey through salt, wind and stone: the soul of being Portuguese.

Translation:
We’re born from the salt the sea gives us
With misty eyes and wandering feet
We carry the wind in our hands
And the weight of the world in our hearts

To be Portuguese is to be longing
To have the soul tied to the truth
To cry to the moon
To shout at the silence
We’re the shadow that dances on the sea

Fado is prayer
It’s our destiny
The old man sings
The child weeps
Narrow streets know who we are
We carve our ghosts into the stone

Oh my land that always departs
With every boat
We leave our art

To be Portuguese is to be longing…

And if the world calls us
We go without fear
But we carry our secret with us
The sun of Lisbon
The cry of Amália
The bitter wine
Our battle
