English Translation

Menos uma ovelha contei no meu redil

One less sheep I counted in my fold

Que pelas montanhas a sós preferiu

Who, through the mountains, chose to be alone

É chegada a noite, o Sol já descansou

The night has come, the Sun has already rested

E a minha ovelha não voltou

And my sheep has not returned


Ide buscar a desgarrada

Go seek the lost one

A centésima ovelha fugaz

The elusive hundredth sheep

Tão distante, está desamparada

So distant, she is left unprotected

Quero dar-lhe abrigo e a paz

I want to give her shelter and peace


Deve ter ouvido a enganosa voz

She must have heard the deceitful voice

De um certo inimigo astuto e feroz

Of a certain cunning and fierce enemy

É passada a noite, o Sol já despertou

The night has passed, the Sun has awakened

E a minha ovelha não voltou

And my sheep has not returned


Ide buscar a desgarrada

Go seek the lost one

A centésima ovelha fugaz

The elusive hundredth sheep

Tão distante, está desamparada

So distant, she is left unprotected

Quero dar-lhe abrigo e a paz

I want to give her shelter and peace


Ide buscar a desgarrada

Go seek the lost one

A centésima ovelha fugaz

The elusive hundredth sheep

Tão distante, está desamparada

So distant, she is left unprotected

Quero dar-lhe abrigo e a paz

I want to give her shelter and peace
