Paroles et traduction Amelinha - Gemedera

Gemedera

Tava eu mirando a lua
Veio a moça me olhar
Perguntei se era nova
Não custou me apaixonar
No cavalo de São Jorge
Já mulher a galopar
Sete léguas de paixão
Sem parar de suspirar
Tava tocando a viola
Num galope à beira mar
Ai, ai, ai, é bom que dói
Ui, ui, ui, chega a sangrar
Gemedeira é que nem beijo
Começou custa a parar
Ela olhou, pediu um xote
Pra gemer bastou te amar
Tava sentado na pedra
Veio o dono reclamar
Perguntou pra ver quem era
Não custou me apresentar
Com cem tiros de pistola
Sete furos de punhal
Sou violeiro, patrão
Ele não pôde escutar

Gemedera

I was gazing at the moon
When a young lady approached me
I asked if she was new
And found myself falling in love
On Saint George's horse
A woman galloping
Seven leagues of passion
Sighing without end
I was playing the viola
In a gallop by the sea
Oh, oh, oh, it's so good it hurts
Wow, wow, wow, it makes me bleed
Gemedeira is like a kiss
Once it starts, it's hard to stop
She looked at me and asked for a xote
To moan, all you had to do was love you
I was sitting on a rock
When the owner came to complain
He asked who I was
And I introduced myself
With a hundred gunshots
And seven stab wounds
I'm a violeiro, sir
He couldn't hear me
