Sou [Rochedo] [English translation]

I am pallid sound

That loses its gift

When sung

I am the complete darkness

Of the lamp

More than extinct

And the fado is heard

I am a rock in the stormy sea

A lament that prays freely

Burns my lips

I am a glance that looks for fortune

That follows the North Star

With astolabes

I am the hand that puts

A point in the East

Marked by you

For a moment I am

The consonant

Of the wrong verb

And the fado is heard
