Fidelis Magalhães

Some were just discovering romance, while others were not yet in relationships but already carried their own charm and style.
Besides singing many revolutionary songs, we also sang many love songs, Natália, Biskota, and many others.

These were the things that defined a generation, those of us who came of age in the late 1990s and became witnesses to 20 May 2002.

I remember waking up around midday on 20 May, after staying awake the entire night, feeling emotionally overwhelmed… finally, we truly governed ourselves!

One question immediately came to my mind: what comes next? How do we move forward?

It was an extraordinarily rare privilege to be able to contribute to making a country independent and to assist the independence ceremony itself.

A life rich with experiences! I witnessed the miracle of something once thought impossible becoming reality.

Long live Timor-Leste

Balun foin hatene namora, balu namora seidauk iha maibe estilos bonito/bonita.

Além de ami kanta musika revolucionaria barak, ami mos kanta kantigas domin barak los. Natália, Biskota, no sei barak tan.

Buat hirak nee mak marka jerasaun ida…hirak nebe foin sa’e iha fins dos anos de 90 no sai testamunha ba 20 de maio 2002!

Hau lembra hader mai meudia dia 20 de maio depois de hader kalan tomak, hau sente laran taridu los…finalmente ita ukun an duni!
Pergunta nee mosu mai: agora, oinsa ita hakat ba oin?

Nudar priveligio ida kontribui ba nasaun ida nia independência no depois bele participa iha cerimónia independénsia nee rasik.

Moris ida ne’ebé riku ho esperiénsia! Ita hare haree milagre ida. Buat ne’ebé uluk hanesan impossível, bele sai realidade.

Viva Timor-Leste!
