Текст и перевод песни Lucilia Do Carmo - Zé Maria

Zé Maria

Maria José que hoje inda se vê
Guardando o seu gado
Adorava e queria o José Maria
Seu noivo adorado
E tantos amores nesses dois pastores
Davam que falar
Que pl'os arraiais, moças e zagais
Punham-se a cantar

Dá-me um beijo, Zé Maria
Qualquer dia casarás eu tenho fé
Nesse dia, que alegria
Lá está toda a freguesia

No casório da Maria mais o Zé

Os anos passaram e prós que voltaram
Quando o mal findou
Voltou a alegria mas o Zé Maria
Nunca mais voltou
E hoje a pastora, sorri canta e chora
Dizendo na esperança
De ainda vir um dia, o seu Zé Maria
Que voltou de França

Zé Maria

Maria José, who is still seen today
Looking after her cattle
She adored and wanted José Maria
Her beloved fiancé
And so much love between these two shepherds
Was enough to get people talking
That through hamlets and villages, young men and girls
Would start to sing

Give me a kiss, Zé Maria
Someday you will marry me, I have faith
On that day, what joy
The whole parish will be there

At the wedding of Maria and Zé

Years passed and for those who returned
When the evil ended
Joy had returned but Zé Maria
Never returned
And today the shepherdess, while smiling, sings and cries
Saying in hope
That one day, her Zé Maria will come
Who returned from France
