MONA KI NGI XIÇA
(The Child I’m Leaving Behind)

(Barceló de Carvalho “Bonga”) Bonga - 1972

Attention! I’m in mortal danger
And I’ve already warned you
She will stay here and I will go away

This child of mine
Evil people are after her
This child of mine
On a tide of misfortune

God gave me this offspring
That I brought into the world
And she will stay here
When I am gone
