Saudade e eu [English translation]

Did you know that melancholy and I

Met each other one day?

It's because she appeared...

Passion, that disaster!

First, I held onto her very tightly

And we wept next to each other;

It was also in her arms

That I spoke about my beloved.

[Chorus:]

I don't know who is sadder:

Whether melancholy, or myself!

Melancholy feels longing

For the half of her sorrows, which she gave me!

It's there that it happened

What I would have never expected:

That melancholy woke up

In love with the one I loved!

[Chorus:]

I don't know who is sadder:

Whether melancholy, or myself!

Melancholy feels longing

For the half of her sorrows, which she gave me!

[Instrumental]

[Chorus:]

I don't know who is sadder:

Whether melancholy, or myself!

Melancholy feels longing

For the half of her sorrows, which she gave me!
