Amor de mel, amor de fel [English translation]

I have a love

That I cannot confess,

But I can weep over it;

Love of sin,

Love of love,

Love of honey,

Love in bloom!

Love of bile,

Greater love,

Cherished love...

I have a love...

Love if grief,

Greater love,

Lamented love

In a minor key;

In a minor key,

Fado is greater!

I weep as I bawl,

Turning the sea even bigger;

I cannot stop loving

My love, in sin!

I was a swallow

That arrived with the Springtime.

I was who I was:

Love of sin,

Love of love,

Love of honey,

Love in bloom!

Love of bile,

Greater love,

Cherished love...

I have a love...

Love if grief,

Greater love,

Lamented love

In a minor key;

In a minor key,

Fado is greater!

I weep as I bawl,

Turning the sea even bigger;

I cannot stop loving

My love, in sin!

[Instrumental]

I weep as I bawl,

Turning the sea even bigger;

I cannot stop loving

My love, in sin!

Greater fado,

Sung in a minor key:

Crying over a painful love,

The pain of he who is beloved and unloved!
