Cesaria is from Cape Verde, where the word is spelled differently. I can't resist dancing and singing along to this... only when alone, of course!! :o)
'Saudade' is a Portuguese and Galician word that has no direct translation in English. It describes a deep emotional state of nostalgic longing for an absent something or someone that one loves. It often carries a repressed knowledge that the object of longing will never return. A stronger form of saudade may be felt towards people and things whose whereabouts are unknown, such as a lost lover, or a family member who has gone missing.
Saudade was once described as "the love that remains" after someone or something is gone. Saudade is the recollection of feelings, experiences, places or events that once brought excitement, pleasure, well-being, which now triggers the senses and makes one feel alive again.
