Paroles et traduction Carlos do Carmo - Nasceu Assim, Cresceu Assim

Nasceu Assim, Cresceu Assim

Talvez a mãe fosse rameira de bordel
Talvez o pai um decadente aristocrata
Talvez lhe dessem à nascença amor e fel
Talvez crescesse aos tropeções na vida ingrata
Talvez o tenham educado sem maneiras
Entre desordens, navalhadas e paixões
Talvez ouvisse vendavais e bebedeiras
E as violências que rasgavam corações
Talvez ouvisse vendavais e beredeiras
E as violências que rasgavam corações
Talvez ardesse vagamente em várias chamas
Talvez a história fosse ainda mais bizarra
No desamparo teve sempre duas almas
Que se chamavam a viola e a guitarra
Pois junto delas já talvez o reconheçam
Talvez recusem dar-lhe o nome de enjeitado
E mesmo aqueles que não cantam não esqueçam
Nasceu assim, cresceu assim, chama-se fado
E mesmo aqueles que não cantam não esqueçam
Nasceu assim, cresceu assim, chama-se fado

Born This Way, Raised This Way

Perhaps your mother was a brothel madam, my dear
Perhaps your father a decadent aristocrat
Perhaps they gave you love and bitterness at birth
Perhaps you stumbled through an ungrateful life
Perhaps they raised you without manners, my love
Amidst disorder, switchblades, and passions
Perhaps you heard storms and drunken brawls
And the violence that tore hearts apart
Perhaps you heard storms and inheritances
And the violence that tore hearts apart
Perhaps you vaguely burned in various flames, my dear
Perhaps your story was even more bizarre
In your despair, you always had two souls
Named the viola and the guitar
For next to them, perhaps they already recognize you
Perhaps they refuse to call you an outcast, my love
And even those who don't sing, don't forget
Born this way, raised this way, it's called fado
And even those who don't sing, don't forget
Born this way, raised this way, it's called fado
