Fado Mãe [English translation]

Ah my spring, my river,

ah of water pure and beautiful,

in your eyes a sun

that is my window.

Oh I wish I were the sea

to lull her

and make her sleep.

And not let her body go cold,

shelter her breast in my hands;

and let not wind, not rain, not sorrow,

nor the loneliness in her water

plunge my heart.

Oh I wish I were the sea

to lull her and make her sleep!
