Ai esta Pena de Mim [English translation]

Ai this distress without end

Ai this heart of mine

Ai this grief of mine

Ai my great solitude

Ai my painful childhood

Ai my good that was not

Ai my lost life

Ai this painful lucidity

Ai this great anxiety

Ai this having no rest

Ai past without longing

Ai my lack of attachment

Ai me that goes on living

Ai my great despair

Ai all I don't understand

Ai what I understand and don't want

• Artist:Amália Rodrigues
