Maldição [English translation]

What fate or curse

commands us, my heart?

Being so lost from each other,…

we are two silent screams

two fados in desharmony

Two disunited lovers

we are two silent screams

two fados in desharmony

Two disunited lovers

I suffer for you and I am dying

I can't find you, neither understand you

I love and hate without reason

Oh heart, when will you get tired

of our dead hopes?

When will you stop, heart?

Oh heart, when will you get tired

of our dead hopes?

When will you stop, heart?

In this battle, in this agony

I sing and cry with joy

I am happy and unfortunate

What a bad fate this of yours is, my chest!

which makes you never feel satisfied

You give everything and have nothing

What a bad fate this of yours is, my chest!

which makes you never feel satisfied

You give everything and have nothing

In the cold solitude,…

that you give me, my heart,..

there is no life, neither death

It is lucidity and blunder…

to read my own destiny,…

Unable to change its course
