Tudo Isto É Fado Lyrics in English Amália Rodrigues
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Tudo Isto É Fado by Amália Rodrigues from Portuguese to English.
Perguntaste-me outro dia
You asked me the other day
Se eu sabia o que era o fado
If I knew what fado was
Disse-te que não sabia
I told you I didn't know
Tu ficaste admirado
You were amazed
Sem saber o que dizia
Not knowing what I was saying
Eu menti naquela hora
I lied at that time
Disse-te que não sabia
I told you I didn't know
Mas vou-te dizer agora
But I'll tell you now
Almas vencidas
Defeated souls
Noites perdidas
Lost nights
Sombras bizarras
Bizarre shadows
Na Mouraria
In Mouraria
Canta um rufia
A ruffian sings
Choram guitarras
Guitars cry
Amor ciúme
Love, jealousy
Cinzas e lume
Ashes and fire
Dor e pecado
Pain and sin
Tudo isto existe
All this exists
Tudo isto é triste
All this is sad
Tudo isto é fado
All this is fado
Se queres ser o meu senhor
If you want to be my master
E teres-me sempre a teu lado
And always have me by your side
Não me fales só de amor
Don't just talk to me about love
Fala-me também do fado
Speak to me about fado too
E o fado é o meu castigo
And fado is my punishment
Só nasceu pra me perder
It was only born to lose me
O fado é tudo o que digo
Fado is everything I say
Mais o que eu não sei dizer
But what I don't know how to say
