Sempre que Lisboa Canta [English translation]

Lisbon friendly city

You are my cradle that enchants me

Teach me a song

Of those you can sing

A simple song

Of those bewitch us

To sing at the window

When my love passes

Every time Lisbon sings

I don't know if it sings or if itprays

Her voice tenderly

Sing her melancholy in a low voice

Every time Lisbon sings

Her beauty enchants people

Because when Lisbon sings

It sings Fado for sure

I want to give you a punishment

For loving you so much

I want you to sing with me

The verses of the same fado

I want Lisbon to keep

So many Fados that I sang

So that it'll sing to me later

The Fados that I taught him

Every time Lisbon sings

I don't know if it sings, if it prays

Her voice tenderly

Sing her melancholy in a low voice

Every time Lisbon sings

Its beauty enchants people

Because every time Lisbon sings

It sings Fado for sure

Every time Lisbon sings

Its beauty enchants people

Because every time Lisbon sings

It sings the Fado for sure
