Lusitana paixão [English translation]

Fado… to cry the sadness well

Fado… to fall asleep with the pain

Fado… only when the longing comes

Forcing out of my past

A great love

But… I do not condemn this passion

This pain of the words

That the guitar is also moaning

I do not, I will not ask for forgiveness

When enjoying sin

And to come back to give me

Because I want to be happy

And the misfortune is not spoken

I do not want what the fado wants to say.

Fado… to sob memories

Fado… to revive such a pain

Fado… only when the longing comes

Forcing out of my past a great love

But, I do not condemn this passion

The pain of the words

That the guitar is also moaning

I do not, I will not ask for forgiveness

When enjoying sin

And to come back to give me

I know that aspect that is in us

Soulful Lusitanian

As the legend of Severa

Because I want to be happy

And the misfortune is not spoken

The fado does not make me repent.
