Este Silêncio [English translation]

There is a heavy silence

I don't know where it comes from

I don't know if they call it fado

Or what other name it may have

When I sing it doesn't hurt so much

The wounded heart

But there is in everything I sing

This heavy silence

It's not pain or longing

Nor pity for anyone

The silence that invades me

I don't know where it comes from

The silence within me

And even without my wanting it

Says through what I say

What I can not say

This heavy silence

Which suspends and sustains me

I don't know if they call it fado

Or what other name it may have

If with words we dress

The joy and sorrow

Then what silence is this

That is there in all I sing
