Cape Verde, where waters meet,
In your beauty, life is sweet.

In your presence, hearts explore.

In your glow, pure delight.

Cape Verde's Magic:
In Cape Verde, islands sing,
Of winds and waves and endless spring.
From volcanic peaks to ocean's sweep,
Cape Verde's beauty runs so deep.
A melody in the Atlantic blue,
Cape Verde enchants with a timeless view.
Each island tells a tale unique,
In Cape Verde, adventures peak.
The mornas' sad, sweet refrain,
Cape Verde's heart, joy and pain.
A land of sun and gentle breeze,
Where spirits roam with ease.
