Amália Rodrigues "As águias" lyrics

Translation to:en

As águias

Entre pombas e mentiraNos infernos uma liraE nos céusNuma caçada

Assim vai a minha vidaEntre pombas divididaPelas águias devoradaAssim vai a minha vidaEntre pombas divididaPelas águias devorada

Ouvem-se trompas de caçaÉ o arcanjo que passaÁ caça

Dos meus sentidosEntão as cordas da liraSem terem quem as desfiraTornam-se arames partidosEntão as cordas da liraSem terem quem as desfiraTornam-se arames partidos

Mas emudeço de assombroQuando me pousam no ombroAs pombas

Da claridadeCalam-se as trompas e a liraÉ tudo tudo mentiraSó as águias são verdadeCalam-se as trompas e a liraÉ tudo tudo mentiraSó as águias são verdade

The eagles

Between doves and liesIn the hells a lyreAnd in the heavensA hunt

That's how my life goesDivided between dovesDevoured by the eaglesThat's how my life goesDivided between dovesDevoured by the eagles

Here the bugles of the huntIt is the archangel that passesTo the hunt

Of my feelingsSo the strings of the lyreWithout having who undoes themTurn themselves into split wiresSo the strings of the lyreWithout having who undoes themTurn themselves into split wires

But I fall silent with shockWhen the dovesLand on my shoulder

From the clarityThe trumpets and the lyre go silentEverything is a lieOnly the eagles are truthThe trumpets and the lyre go silentEverything is a lieOnly the eagles are truth
