Malinconia d'ottobre [English translation]

October melancholy,

For all that I have not.

A dog passes by, pisses and laughs and awaits for the midnight tram with me

which has been cancelled or is no more.

Now I ask the dog yes, the dog if,

if he brings me to you.

"Forget me, erase me, keep me away from you,

get it in your head, resign yourself, this story is no more!"

My soul into the vase

From a crack it flies away,

It goes to look for its shadow

which, sat, stayed on the stairs of your home.

A thief passing by with certain kindness

Asks me: "do you have some smoke?" "yes, some fire, yes"

and after the theft runs away.

"Resign yourself, relax and don't ever think about her, get used to it, try to get it in your head that there's not only her"

In the centre of Lisbon,

Sat at a bar's table,

There's the Pessoa's statue

That seems to be there just for me

"The love is a liar,

you don't know when it's over,

but how beautiful is its pain,

you understand it if you have it".
