lyrics
Căn Nhà Ngoại Ô
Tôi ở ngoại ô, một căn nhà xinh có hoa thơm trái hiền
Cận kề lối xóm, có cô bạn thân sớm hôm lo sách đèn
Hai đứa chưa ước hẹn lấy một câu, chưa nghĩ đến mai sau
Nhưng đêm thức giấc ngỡ ngàng
Nghe lòng thương nhớ biết rằng mình yêụ
Khi hiểu lòng nhau, thời gian gần gũi đã qua đi mất rồi
Nào còn những phút hái hoa vườn trăng suốt đêm chung tiếng cười
Tôi bước theo tiếng gọi những người trai, tha thiết với tương lai
Tôi xa ánh sáng phố phường, xa người em nhỏ lên đường tòng chinh.
Là chinh nhân tôi bạn với sông hồ
Tình yêu em tôi nguyện vẫn tôn thờ
Và yêu không bến bờ
Niềm tin là một ngày mai non nước chung một màu cờ
Rồi hôm nao tôi về ghé thăm nàng
Ngoại ô đây con đường tắm trăng vàng
Mà sao không thấy nàng
Tìm em, giờ tìm ở đâu sao không gắng đợi chờ nhau
Tôi hỏi người quen, nàng nay là nữ cứu thương trên chiến trường
Dặm ngàn sóng gió, biết đâu nàng vui dấn thân nơi phuong trường
Tôi đứng nghe gió lạnh giữa màn đêm, thương xé nát con tim
Em ơi, trái đất vẫn tròn,
Chúng mình hai đứa sẽ còn gặp nhau
---english translation---
Home In The Suburb
I lived in the suburb, in a thatched house with flowers and fruits
In the neighborhood, there was a little girl studying hard days and nights
We never made a promise, we didn't even think about the future
Waking up in the middle of the night
Realized that I was in love
Having understood each other, our time together had already passed
No more nights picking flowers and looking at the moon smiling to each other.
I followed the voice from my heart, a young man responsible for the future
Goodbye street lights, goodbye my little girl, I am heading to the battle.
Being a soldier, I make friend with nature.
I worship our love forever
And never stop loving you.
Believe in a day our country will be united as one.
Then one day I came back to see you
Here it is the road under the moonlight.
But why didn't I see you?
Find you, where to find you, why didn't you wait for me?
I asked an acquaintance, you are now a nurse on the battlefield
Thousand miles away, you might be enjoying your works there
I stand in the darkness feeling the cold wind with a torn heart.
Little girl, the world is round.
We will certainly meet again.

The gods are Cabo Verdian astronauts and they are ready to wash the dance floor with your tears of joy!
Everything about this record is UNBELIEVABLE - these tunes groove HARD, the melodies will stay long in the ear (if you understand Portuguese, the lyrics are super great), and these musicians RIP on their instruments like there's no tomorrow.
Get this gem of a release, it fucking rules. Cosmographer

I heard this album back 2016 , just was not in the mood for it, was still into more faster 4/4 beat music . Over last four year I have progressed into this love of soul , funk and especially jazz. This record is on fire, I love it so much . I love changes of the time signatures, yeah it has though Herbie feel, but also the urban feel, back in forest hill I go! jazz, funk, broken beat all in one it's a must ! Gary Hawkins
