Ai o amor [English translation]

Ah, love!

Heart of my soul

That, sometimes, remains calm...

Others, it loses its mind!

Ah, love!

Infinite desperation:

Sometimes accursed,

Other times, passion.

Ah, love!

An empty beach

And the moonlight that awakens

Between dreams and hope...

Ah, love!

A rose drying up

By the window that is the sight

Of an eternal child!

Ah, love!

If the truth is uncertain,

There's a deserted street

Around sin itself.

Ah, love!

If desire does kill us,

Longing is ungrateful

For the mystery of fado!

Ah, love!

Imperfect sanity

When people lie down

As tenderness falls.

Ah, love!

Boundless despair:

Sometimes accursed,

Other times, madness.

Ah, love!

Boundless despair:

Sometimes accursed,

Other times, madness.

Ah, love...
