Paroles et traduction Amália Rodrigues - Raizes




Raizes
Roots
Velhas pedras que pisei
Old stones that I stepped on
Saiam da vossa mudez
Break your silence
Venham dizer o que sei
Come tell me what I know
Venham falar português
Come speak in Portuguese
Sejam duras como a lei
Be as hard as the law
E puras como a nudez.
And as pure as nudity.
Minha lágrima salgada
My salty tear
Caíu no lenço da vida
Fell on the handkerchief of life
Foi lembrança naufragada
It was a shipwrecked memory
E para sempre perdida
And forever lost
Foi vaga despedaçada
It was a wave shattered
Contra o cais da despedida.
Against the pier of farewell.
Visitei tantos países
I have visited so many countries
Conheci tanto luar
I have known so much moonlight
Nos olhos dos infelizes
In the eyes of the unhappy
E porque me hei-de gastar?
And why should I spend myself?
Vou ao fundo das raízes
I go to the bottom of the roots
E hei-de gastar-me a cantar.
And I will spend myself singing.
