Genius English Translations
Verto - Oie Gayego (English Translation)
(In Spanish)
Oie, gayego
I love your land, everything is so green
Oie, gayego
I love octopus and barnacles
Oie, gayego
You’re all so nice, a little closed, but homely
Oie, gayego

Oie, gayego
I love your language
It’s so riquiño

Oie, gayego
You talk like you’re singing
You're so riquiño

Oie, gayego
I love your songs
But it’s a pity that they’re in Galician
Oie, gayego

Look how green!
There’s nothing like this
Although the weather is a pain, isn’t it?
This much rain, I wouldn’t be able to handle it
Maybe that’s why you’re less open, don’t you think?
I’m obsessed with your shellfish
Last Summer I was in Sangenjo
And that retranca, how does it work?
It’s like sarcasm, I don’t know if I get it
Oie, gayego
I love the beaches, the Rías Bajas
Oie, gayego
I love bagpipes and mariscadas
Oie, gayego
Translate the lyrics, cause you’re in Spain
Oie, gayego
Oie, gayego

Oie, gayego
Your tides, I don’t understand them
Oie, gayego
In Castilian, cause I don't understand
Oie, gayego
It’s Sangenjo, I can’t comprehend
Oie, gayego
Pontemuiños is an invention

I’m telling you this, because I’m Spanish
I’m going to teach you a couple of lessons
Nationalism made it up
All that about how you’re different
Castilian is the best
Many more millions of speakers
Galician is fucking worse
A dialect without much of a chance
Eh
(In Galician)
Ai ai ai eh
For how long do I have to live
Ai ai ai eh
To be left alone in the place that I live in

Ai ai ai eh
For how long do I have to live
Ai ai ai eh
To be left alone in the place that I live in

Ai ai ai eh
For how long do I have to live
Ai ai ai eh
To be left alone in the place that I live in

Ai ai ai eh
For how long do I have to live
Ai ai ai eh

(In Spanish)
Wake up, gayego!

Oie, gayego
And the morriña, what?
Oie, gayego
And the golfiños, what?
Oie, gayego
And bolboreta, what?
Oie, gayego
And the sentidiño, what?
Oie, gayego
And morriña, what
Oie, gayego
And sentidiño, what
Oie, gayego
Ai eh ai eh ai eh ai eh
Oie, gayego
And the fariña, what?
