Tudo isso é fado [English translation]

You asked me in another day

If I knew what Fado was

I told you I didn't know

You were surprised.

Not knowing what I said

I lied at the time

I told you I didn't know

But I will tell you now

Defeated souls

Lost nights

Bizarre shadows

At Mouraria (place in Lisbon)

A rowdy sings

Guitars cry

Love, jealousy

Ashes and flame

Pain and sin

All this exists

All this is sad

All this is Fado

If you want to be my lord (=have me, as in lover or husband)

And have me always by your side

Don't talk me only of love

Talk me also of Fado.

And Fado is my burden (or punishment)

Was only born to make me lost

Fado is everything I say

Plus what I don't know how to say.
