Longe do meu pais/Far From My Country

Longe do meu pais
Alem no horizonte
Onde o Arco iris
Aparece sobre a fonte

Far from my country
There in the horizon
Where the Rainbow
Appears over the fountain

E onde a saudade
Impera a todo instante
Lembrando-nos sempre
O fado do Imigrante

And where the saudade
Reigns all the time
Reminding us always
Of Fado (Song) of the Immigrant

Um Portugal distante
Cheio de luz e de cor
No meio dos Oceanos
Trouxe-nos alegria e dor

A distant Portugal
Full of light and color
In the middle of the oceans
Brought us happiness and pain

(Conceicao)
