O Diabo e o Ferreiro Lyrics Translation in English
Cantigas PopularesPortuguese Lyrics
English Translation
O diabo deu dinheiro
The devil gave money
Pela alma do ferreiro
For the soul of the blacksmith
Que ficou muito contente
Who became very happy
Com o esplendido presente
With the splendid gift
Mas o diabo há de voltar
But the devil will return
Quando o tempo se passar
When time passes
Quer a alma que comprou
He wants the soul he bought
E com ouro já pagou
And with gold, he has already paid
São 10 anos de riqueza
It's been 10 years of wealth
Boa roupa e boa mesa
Good clothes and a good table
Mas depois o fogo eterno
But then the eternal fire
Das caldeiras lá do inferno
From the hellish cauldrons
O diabo já comprou
The devil has already bought
O diabo já pagou
The devil has already paid
Já pagou muito dinheiro
He has paid a lot of money
Pela alma do ferreiro
For the soul of the blacksmith
