These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Gostaste de me ouvir cantar o fado
Did you like hearing me sing fado?
E quando percebi que tu gostaste
And when I realized that you liked it
Fixei no teu o meu olhar magoado
I fixed my hurt look on yours
Cantei o fado e tu choraste
I sang fado and you cried
Mas porque o nosso amor nasceu de pranto
But because our love was born in tears
Dessa canção magoada que eu deploro
Of this hurt song that I deplore
Agora que esse amor perdeu o encanto
Now that this love has lost its charm
Enquanto canto, sou eu que choro
As I sing, I'm the one crying
Amar p'ra quê? O amor é louco
Love for what? Love is crazy
E na sua loucura a ternura dura pouco
And in your madness, tenderness is short-lived
Cedo o amor se desvanece
Soon love fades
E uma vez em desgraça
And once in disgrace
Tudo passa, tudo esquece
Everything passes, everything forgets
Cedo o amor se desvanece
Soon love fades
E uma vez em desgraça
And once in disgrace
Tudo passa, tudo esquece
Everything passes, everything forgets
