Não Quero Amar [English translation]

Go give your love to someone who could love you back

My mouth is cold, there is no joy in it

Not even to sing!

No longer do I want to share the burden tormenting your life!

I do not want to be won like a trophy, nor be told to get lost

For wanting you so hard!

Do not want this flower on your breast,

Scentless and colorless,

That is no good for embellishing!

Do not beg for a handout of love

From one who can't give away!

Being lovers, that I don't want, don't want!

One thing only can cheer me up:

It's my fado, beautiful and chaste, a peerless lover!

It's my fado who kisses me, it's him who hugs me!

In moonlight nights, if my thoughts linger on life passing by!

And your whole life passes over

Loneliness and bitterness,

A tune far away, the dawn is singing

And it's you, my love!
