People of the Diaspora
See them depart
the young and the old
in search of fortune
in other parts
in other breezes
among other peoples
the young and the old

See them depart
with moistened eyes
and saddened heart
pack on the back
hope in the hilt
and golden dreams
see them depart
with moistened eyes

They'll return some day
rich or not
telling stories
of far off lands
where sweat
was made bread
They'll return some day
Or not

(Song byManuel Freire)
