Vira dos Malmequeres [English translation]

Oh daisy you liar

Who taught you to lie?

You say that you wish me well

For those who flee from me.

Refrain:

I pluck petals from a daisy

In the beautiful garden of Santarém

Loves me not, loves me

Who loves me is very far away

A tiny daisy

Said one day to a lovely rose

Why do they call you a queen

Do not be so proud.

Refrain:

I pluck petals from a daisy

In the beautiful garden of Santarém

Loves me not, loves me

Who loves me is very far away

The daisy is not constant

The daisy varies greatly

Twenty petals say death

Thirteen say joy.

Refrain (x2):

I pluck petals from a daisy

In the beautiful garden of Santarém

Loves me not, loves me

Who loves me is very far away

Lusitana, dark rose

Do not be sorry, my loyal love

Give me your arms, give me your bonds

And come cheer for Portugal
