These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Se a gente lembra só por lembrar
If we remember just to remember
Do alguém que um dia a gente perdeu
From someone we lost one day
Saudade intonce assim é bom
I miss you, this is good
Pro cabra se convencer
For the goat to be convinced
Que é feliz sem saber
Who is happy without knowing
Pois não sofreu
Because he didn't suffer
Porém, se a gente vive a sonhar
However, if we live dreaming
Com alguém que se deseja rever
With someone you want to see again
Saudade intonce aí é ruim
I miss you, it's bad there
Eu tiro isso por mim
I take it for myself
Que vivo louco a sofrer
I live crazy suffering
Ai quem me dera voltar
Oh, I wish I could come back
Pros braços do meu xodó
In the arms of my baby
Saudade assim faz roer
Longing like this makes you gnaw
Amarga que nem jiló
Bitter as a jiló
Mas ninguém pode dizer
But no one can say
Que me viu triste a chorar
Who saw me sad and crying
Saudade, o meu remédio é cantar
Missing you, my medicine is singing
Saudade, o meu remédio é cantar
Missing you, my medicine is singing
Laiá laiá laiá
Laiá laiá laiá
Lalalala lailá lá
Lalalala laila la
Laiá laiá laiá
Laiá laiá laiá
Laiá laiá laiá
Laiá laiá laiá
Lalalala lailá lá
Lalalala laila la
Laiá laiá laiá
Laiá laiá laiá
