Lisboa não é a cidade perfeita [English translation]

Fortunately

The time passed

And the love that was supposed to end

remains here / is still here

Fortunately

There are some fado

Which tells/shows everything that life

Doesn't tell/show..

Fortunately

Lisbon isn't

The Perfect city

For us...

Fortunately

There's some alley

whose echos

are the voice of the humble people

Just now I have seen a crazy woman

Singing lonely

in that window upstairs

Some nights the longing

Makes me wish

I may meet her one day

and sing with her one day

Fortunately

I was never able

To find out that alley

and walk in....

Fortunately

The Tejo river is lilac

And the fishes don't stop

laughing

Fortunately

Your body doesn't want

To share the storm

that exists in my body

Fortunately

If the destiny wants

That tragic history

is me
