Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

Amar, como eu amei

To love, as I loved

Ninguém, jamais amou

No one, ever loved

Penar, como eu penei

To suffer, as I suffered

Ninguém, jamais penou

No one, ever suffered


Eu vivia sem ninguém, porém

I lived without anyone, but

Não chorava de amargura não

I didn't cry in bitterness, no

Mas um dia conheci alguém

But one day I met someone

A quem logo dei meu coração

To whom I quickly gave my heart

Hoje sofro por amar demais

Today I suffer for loving too much

A um ser que não me soube dar

To a being who didn't know how to give

A ternura imensa que eu lhe dei

The immense tenderness that I gave

O que soube foi me desprezar

What they knew was to scorn me


Amar, como eu amei

To love, as I loved

Ninguém, jamais amou

No one, ever loved

Penar, como eu penei

To suffer, as I suffered

Ninguém, jamais penou

No one, ever suffered


Eu vivia sem ninguém, porém

I lived without anyone, but

Não chorava de amargura não

I didn't cry in bitterness, no

Mas um dia conheci alguém

But one day I met someone

A quem logo dei meu coração

To whom I quickly gave my heart

Hoje sofro por amar demais

Today I suffer for loving too much

A um ser que não me soube dar

To a being who didn't know how to give

A ternura imensa que eu lhe dei

The immense tenderness that I gave

O que soube foi me desprezar

What they knew was to scorn me
