Amália Rodrigues "Foi ontem" lyrics

Translation to:enro

Foi ontem

Foi ontem que lembrei o meu passadoE o fantasma remorse deu um beijoSo ontem percebi tudo acabadoA luz crua da vida em que me vejoUm filho desse amor, amor pecadoNo meu pecado vivo se tornouE chora, e fica tristeSempre que canto este meu fadoFado do amor que o amor matouFoi ontem como hojeE sempre e sempre o que ha de virOh Deus, da-me sossego p'ra dormirFoi ontem que fechei os olhos teusMas novamente veio a primaveraE eu que julgava ter fechado os meusOutro ninho teci com folhas delaFoi ontem que fugiu, outra o levouPor que sera que tudo me castiga ?Por que sera que eu canto esta toada, esta cantigaQue a experiencia da vida me ensinouFoi ontem, como hojeE sempre e sempre o que ha de virOh Deus, olha por mimQuero dormir

It Was Yesterday

It was yesterday I remembered my pastAnd the ghost of remorse kissed meOnly yesterday, I realized It's all overIn the harsh light of life in which I find myselfA child of that love, sinful loveTurned into my live sinAnd it cries, and becomes sadEvery time I sing this fadoFado of love that love killedIt was yesterday as is todayAnd always and always what is to comeOh god give me calmness for to sleepIt was yesterday I closed your eyesBut anew came the springAnd I believed I had closed mineAnother nest woven with her leafsIt was yesterday he fled, another took himWhy is it that everything punishes me ?Why is it I sing this tune, this songThat experience of life has taught meIt was yesterday, as is todayAnd always and always what is to comeOh God, watch over meI want to sleep
