The deigo flowers bloomed, summoning the wind, and the storm arrived.
The deigo bloomed in profusion, summoning the wind, and the storm arrived.
The recurring sorrow is like the waves sweeping across the islands.
I met you in the forest of sugarcane;
Beneath the sugarcane, I bade a long, long farewell.
Oh, island song—ride the wind, cross the sea alongside the birds.
Oh, island song—ride the wind, and carry my tears to them.
The deigo flowers have fallen; now, only gentle ripples sway.
Simple happiness is but the fleeting foam upon the waves.
Oh, friend with whom I sang in the forest of sugarcane;
Beneath the sugarcane, we parted for an eternity.
Oh, island song—ride the wind, cross the sea alongside the birds.
Oh, island song—ride the wind, and carry my love to them.
Oh sea, oh cosmos, oh God, oh life—let this evening calm last forevermore.
Oh, island song—ride the wind, cross the sea alongside the birds.
Oh, island song—ride the wind, and carry my tears to them.
Oh, island song—ride the wind, cross the sea alongside the birds.
Oh, island song—ride the wind, and carry my love to them.
