Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Cantiga De Abrigo by Ana Moura from Portuguese to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Vou esperar contigo
I'll wait with you
E, se quiser tardar, o tempo foi meu amigo
And if you want to delay, time was my friend
Prendo os ponteiros
Pressing the pointers
Que o teu instante é meigo
That your instant is sweet
Vou mudar contigo
I'm going to change with you
E se puder escapar, teu corpo é meu abrigo
And if I can escape, your body is my shelter
Prendo-me ao peito
I'm so sorry
E em ti me desarraigo
And in you I uprooted myself
Repreendo a própria vida
I reprimand one's own life
Cada dia em que, iludida
Every day when, deluded
Me extingui a sós comigo
I've extinguished myself alone with me
Que em teu refúgio há fogo
That in your refuge there is fire
Se me chamares, meu nome seja aconchego
If you call me, my name is coziness
Prendo-te aos braços e o nó que dou é cego
I'll tie you to my arms and the knot I give you is blind
