MUSIC: Zemoga - Letra WEUPIFE based on the poem of Francisco Miranda


weupife I am always
just remember to remember all the memory of my ancestors

weupife I am a wise old man shot in my mind
exploits of old men on earth I am the weupife

heard again and again the origin
the journey and the sense I am the weupife

the voice and words of others
acts and knowledge of others I am


weupife my reason for being is the story
without altering his accent
words or phrases or omitting
strength I am the weupife

and count the stories memory and recite the
ritual hymns and cry the sorrows of my people
and song festivals of my people I'm the weupife

this is my way of being profound
this is my real sense of living


weupife I am not my
false nature is not my home lies is not my destiny
deception
I am the historian
weupife singer thinker oral tradition that

fresh morning breeze and the winter damp wind that hurricane
bloody war
I am the weupife
of men
land of the sons of the sun and moon
of the brothers of the night
of friends and love wine
weupife

I am come to fulfill
mission to evoke the lives of women
delivered to the life and death
tenderness and war: Scarecrow
daughters:
their passions, their visions in their pleasures, their pains
his nightmares, his wonders
their wealth, their
miseries

weupife I am imploring the sun does not blind me to the moon
implore you not miss me ask
water
not ask me drown the fire that never freezes
I pray the wind does not beg me to stay
land that I collapse
