Un Portugais [English translation]
Un Portugais [English translation]
Two cardboard suitcases on French land
A Portuguese just left his Portugal
Like so many others he's trying to get his chance
The Portuguese who left his Portugal
Here, at night amongst all his friends
He's searching for some hope
While they make a circle around him
He plays on his guitar
He sings fados, traditional melodies
The Portuguese who left is Portugal
Under the roofs he hears the rain falling down
The weather is so nice at home in his native country
Over there, a girl is waiting for him for months
Every evening she writes him
For her there will never be anyone else
than him in the world
Two cardboard suitcases on French land
A prince walks away in the morning mist
It's the girl who's waiting over there he is thinking about
That Portuguese who finally goes back to Portugal
That Portuguese who finally goes back to Portugal
La la la...
