Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

Pela primeira vez, eu chorei

For the first time, I cried

Porque fui desprezado pelo meu amor

Because I was scorned by my love

O meu barraco agora ficou desarrumado

My shack is now in disarray

O meu canário já não canta, com certeza se desgostou

My canary no longer sings, surely it got upset

Piu-piu, piu-piu, piu-piu,

Piu-piu, piu-piu, piu-piu,

Canta meu canarinho, para amenizar a minha dor

Sing, my little canary, to alleviate my pain


Piu-piu

Piu-piu


Quando é noite de lua, eu saio pra rua para meditar

When it's a moonlit night, I go out to the street to meditate

O meu pinho faz tudo pra ver meu canário cantar

My pine tree does everything to see my canary sing

No soluçar do vento

In the sobbing of the wind

No sussurro das folhagens

In the whisper of the foliage

No gemido dos coqueiros

In the moan of the coconut palms

Pede a ele pra criar coragem

Ask him to gather courage

Nem assim o meu canário canta

Even so, my canary doesn't sing

E da minha garganta, um triste gemido sai

And from my throat, a sad moan escapes


Ui-ui, ai-ai

Ui-ui, ai-ai

Ui-ui, ai-ai

Ui-ui, ai-ai
