Estranha Forma de Vida [English translation]

It was by God's will

that i live in that anxiety.

That all "ouches" are mine,

that is completel my longing.

It was by God's will.

What strange way of life

has this heart of mine:

living lostly;

Who would give it magic power?

What strange way of life.

Independant heart

heart i can't command:

i live lost amongs the people,

stubbornly bleeding,

independent heart.

i won't follow you up anymore:

stop, quit beating

If you don't know where you go

why insist on running,

i won't follow you up anymore.

• Artist:Amália Rodrigues
