Amália Rodrigues "Fado Portugues" lyrics

Fado Portugues

que, estando triste, cantava,que, estando triste, cantava.O Fado nasceu um dia,quando o vento mal buliae o céu o mar prolongava,na amurada dum veleiro,no peito dum marinheiroque, estando triste, cantava,que, estando triste, cantava.

Ai, que lindeza tamanha,meu chão , meu monte, meu vale,de folhas, flores, frutas de oiro,vê se vês terras de Espanha,areias de Portugal,olhar ceguinho de choro.

Na boca dum marinheirodo frágil barco veleiro,morrendo a canção magoada,diz o pungir dos desejosdo lábio a queimar de beijosque beija o ar, e mais nada,que beija o ar, e mais nada.

Mãe, adeus. Adeus, Maria.Guarda bem no teu sentidoque aqui te faço uma jura:que ou te levo à sacristia,ou foi Deus que foi servidodar-me no mar sepultura.

Ora eis que embora outro dia,quando o vento nem buliae o céu o mar prolongava,à proa de outro veleirovelava outro marinheiro

Portuguese Fado

Fado was born on a day,When the wind barely stirred,And the seas elongated the skies.On the main rail of a sailing ship,In the chest of a seamanWhile sorrowful he sang.While sorrowful he sang.

Oh, what imense beauty,My land, my hill, my valleyOf golden leaves, flowers and fruitsDo you see lands of Spain,Sands of Portugal,Vision blinded by tears.

In the mouth of a seamanIn the fragile sailing shipThe hurtful song fadingWith the piercing of desiresFrom the lips burning with kissesThat kiss the air and nothing more,That kiss the air and nothing more.

Farewell mother, farewell Maria,Keep this well in mind,That I make this vow:Either I will take you to the altar,Or it was God who was served insteadGive me my rest at sea

Now, on another given dayWhen the wind barely stirredAnd the seas elongated the skiesAt the bow of another sailing shipAnother seaman sailed

While sorrowful he sangWhile sorrowful he sang.
