Pequeno fado [English translation]

It happened that in my calm,

He appeared at my door;

And in my summer heart,

You found heat.

I left you at my side,

Of woman, at your edge;

And while outside, the night,

Disguised the fear.

„It’s so easy loving you”

Were you saying with a low voice;

And your mouth was looking for me,

Hiding under the sun.

And you wanted to stay.

And burn you in the bonfire;

I am desperated by the waiting, love,

And the passion turned into ice.

Tell me if you are still remembering me,

In your failures,

Of blood and salt.

Tell me if the loneliness isn’t eating you away.

It happened that one night,

Of scorpions and stars;

You gave me your track (footprint),

And with it, your goodbye.

You left me words,

Laughs, verses and pains;

And that flavour in my life,

Which is the flavour of grief.

Tell me if you are still remembering me,

In your failures,

Of blood and salt.

Tell me if the loneliness isn’t eating you away.

It happened that one noon,

Of doves and dead;

You appeared in my garden,

Tired of dreaming.

And in my bonfire arms,

Your eyes were declining;

And your shadow and my shadow, love,

Went into the sea.

And your shadow and my shadow, love;

And your shadow and my shadow

Lost in the sea.
