Genius English Translations
Stromae - Ave Cesaria (English Translation)
[Intro]
Évora, Évora
Évora, Évora
Évora, Évora
Évora, Évora

[Verse 1]
The scent of rum in your voice makes my head spin
On your fingertips I dance, like your cigarettes
Motionless as usual, but have you become mute?
Or is it because of the kilometers between us that you no longer answer me?

[Chorus]
Évora, Évora, don’t you love me no more?
Évora, Évora, after all these years?
Évora, Évora, just another fish in the sea, right?
Évora, Évora, I’ll find you again for sure

[Verse 2]
Do you remember the first time our eyes met?
As your eye was saying shit to the other, especially to me
But why me, while the others thought you ugly?
Maybe because I’m too stupid, but at least I know how to listen to you

[Chorus]
Évora, Évora, don’t you love me no more?
Évora, Évora, after all these years?
Évora, Évora, just another fish in the sea, right?
Évora, Évora, I’ll find you again for sure
[Verse 3]
Ave Cesaria, hats off, as barefoot you trod
Barefoot is, barefoot was, and Barefoot Diva you will remain
In life Cesaria, and in death too
Obrigado, you pressed on millions of soldiers in your homeland
To attention we stand Cesaria, you fooled us all
Gone we thought you but back you came
Sacred Cesaria, what a beautiful lesson in humility
Despite all those bottles of rum, all roads lead to dignity

[Chorus]
Évora, Évora, don’t you love me no more?
Évora, Évora, after all these years?
Évora, Évora, just another fish in the sea, right?
Évora, Évora, I’ll find you again for sure

[Outro]
Oh, I miss, I miss my Cesária
Oh, I miss, I miss my Cesária
Oh, I miss, I miss my Cesária
Oh, I miss, I miss my Cesária
Oh, I miss, I miss my Cesária
Oh, I miss, I miss my Cesária
Oh, I miss, I miss my Cesária
Oh, I miss, I miss my Cesária
Oh, I miss
Oh, I miss
Oh, I miss
Oh, I miss
