Não me dou longe de ti [English translation]

I do not feel far from you

I can not even dream

Of having someone in our midst

Only God knows what I asked

For you to stay with me

And listen to your voice

Only I know what I suffered

When I was dreaming about you

And opened my eyes, alone

You know of my weakness

Where the knife has two edges

Where I kill myself for you

It is your nature

To cut my chest in jealousy

And I pretend I did not die

But it is my sadness

To hide in the fado the complaints

And to sing in sadness

At night, twists of calico

With two flowers in the lap

And everything that I asked of God

You are so mine, so beautiful

You are the first one I hug

The one I was lost in

Not even my soul believes

That I was lost in your step

I do not feel far from you

As such I want to watch over you

As if nothing had happened

Neither future nor past

Of so much, so much to love you

I asked God to bring

Your body into my fado
