Naquele Tempo [English translation]

Back then, my love, by this time

I used to go out for the street slowly

Leaving you in the silence, as now

It was an 'almost night', an almost dawning night

And the street dawned at my sight

Back then, my love, at this very hour

Tired, my body so tired

Used to leave yours on the bed of us both

And the force of an early goodbye

Saves another night to later

It kept this silence of us both

And even with the running¹ of the four winds

Wishing from us the end, from us the goodbye

As honey daggers and watchful eyes

I have sworn to the great sea, the great sea of my lamentations

To nail you the kisses that are mine

In the running time of the four winds

Today I walk by the streets as you see

Waiting for another day, like now

Another love that the love itself has undone has come

And it leaves this saudade² through the night

From back then, my love, at this very hour

From back then, my love, at this very hour
