Loucura [English translation]

I belong to fado

The one I know

I live a sung poem

A fado that I invented

With words I can't express it

But when I let the soul sing

The soul knows how to listen

Cry, cry

Poets of my country

Trunks of the same root

The life that brought us together

And if you were not by side

Then there would be no fado

Nor fadistas as I am

In this voice so painful

Is the fault of all of you

Poets of my life

It is madness I hear tell

But blessed is this madness

Of singing and suffering

Cry, cry

Poets of my country

Trunks of the same root

The life that brought us together

And if you were not by my side

Then there would be no fado

Nor fadistas as I am

And if you were not by my side

Then there would be no fado

Nor fadistas as I am
