Porque será que não canto
Why don't I sing
Como canta a cotovia
How to sing the cotovia
O meu cantar nem é pranto
My singing isn't even wee
É gemer duma agonia
It's moaning in agony
Chora assim meu coração
So cry my heart
Tens razão para o fazer
You have reason to do so
Matou a vida a ilusão
Killed life the illusion
Que não tornas a viver
That you don't live again
Sofrer fez-me diferente
Suffering made me different
Dizes tu e tens razão
You say you and you're right
Pois não é imponentemente
For it is not imposingly
Que se tem um coração
That you have a heart
Ando a cumprir uma pena
I'm doing a sentence
Mas crime não cometi
But crime I didn't commit
Só sei que ela me condena
All I know is she condemns me
A viver longe de ti
Living away from you
