Lyrics
My beloved granddaughter
Little girl that I bless
With your light and smiling eyes
Iridescent hope
My beloved granddaughter
Little girl that I bless
With your light and smiling eyes
Iridescent hope
In your smile
There is a dream, Cape Verde
Full of innocence
And good people
A Cape Verde that I long for
For you and all its children
My beloved little girl
Mischievous and beautiful
Joy of your parents
Hope of Cape Verde
I heard a voice
Whispering
"Laia, come back soon
Laia, we love you so"
I sing and you dance
A dance of happiness
To avert the maliciousness
That prowls in our life
My beloved granddaughter
Little girl that I bless
With your light and smiling eyes
Iridescent hope
Receive this little kiss
From your little grandmother
Who travels the world
But who doesn't forget you
Who thinks a lot of
Her actress granddaughter
Who see wants to see happy
In our sweet and small country
Where one can find peace
And friendship
I heard a voice
Whispering
"Laia, come back soon
Laia, we love you so"
I sing and you dance
A dance of happiness
To avert the maliciousness
That prowls in our life
My beloved granddaughter
Little girl that I bless
With your light and smiling eyes
Iridescent hope
Receive this little kiss
From your little grandmother
Who travels the world
But who doesn't forget you
Who thinks a lot of
Her actress granddaughter
Who see wants to see happy
In our sweet and small country
Where one can find peace
And friendship
My beloved granddaughter
Little girl that I bless
With your light and smiling eyes
Iridescent hope
My beloved granddaughter
Little girl that I bless
With your light and smiling eyes
Iridescent hope
My beloved granddaughter
Little girl that I bless
With your light and smiling eyes
Iridescent hope
My beloved granddaughter
Little girl that I bless
With your light and smiling eyes
