Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

Já foi no morrer do dia

It was at the end of the day

Quando eu vi com alegria

When I saw with joy

Dois canarinhos gorjear

Two canaries singing

Com bicada de ternura

With tender pecks

O casal trocava jura

The couple exchanged vows

De eternamente se amar

To love each other forever


De repente da gaiada

Suddenly from the birdcage

Aonde tava pousada

Where it was perched

As avezinhas do amor

The little birds of love

Surgiu um gavião malvado

An evil hawk appeared

Passando o bico curvado

Passing with its curved beak

Na canarinha e levou

And took the female canary


O canarinho, coitado

The male canary, poor thing

Avoou desesperado

Flew away in desperation

Perseguindo o malfeitor

Pursuing the wrongdoer

Depois mais veio voltando

Later he came back

Muito triste soluçando

Very sad, sobbing

Num gorjear cheio de dor

In a song full of pain


Do zóio do canarinho

From the eye of the canary

Eu vi molhado os cantinho

I saw the corners wet

De chorá pelo seu bem

Crying for its love

Uma dor foi me apertando

A pain squeezed me

E meus olhos foi piscando

And my eyes were blinking

Sem querer chorei também

Unintentionally, I cried too


Chorei, pois tive saudade

I cried because I missed

Daquela felicidade

That happiness

Que o destino me roubou

That destiny stole from me

O meu viver solitário

My solitary life

É tal e qual deste canário

Is just like this canary's

Que perdeu o seu amor

Who lost its love
