It Was God

I don't know... Nobody knows
Why I sing the fado
In this aggrieved tone
Full of pain and tears!
 
And, in this torment,
All of the suffering...
I feel that my soul
Becomes calm deep within
The stanzas that I sing...
 
[Chorus:]
It was God
Who gave a voice to these eyes,
Lent to roses their perfume,
Gave gold to the sun
And silver to moonlight!
 
It was God
Who placed, in my breast,
A rosary of sorrows
The beads of which I keep counting
As I weep while singing!
 
And He placed the stars in the sky
And created the boundless space,
Covered the swallows in mourning...
Ah! And gave this voice to me!
 
If I sing... I don't know what I'm singing!
Blend of fortune,
Melancholy and tenderness
And, maybe, love!
 
Yet I know that, while singing,
I feel the same as when
One is beset with woe
And tears, down our faces,
Make us better in the end...
 
[Chorus:]
It was God
Who gave its voice to the wind,
Filled the firmament with light
And gave their blueness
To the waves of the sea!
 
It was God
Who placed, in my breast,
A rosary of sorrows
The beads of which I keep counting
As I weep while singing!
 
He turned the nightingale into a poet,
Placed the rosemary in the fields,
Filled the Spring with flowers...
Ah! And gave this voice to me!
 
He filled the Spring with flowers...
Ah! And gave this voice to me!
 

Tell Me

Everything... Today, everything is nothing!
Passion is a bird that flew away

You're Not There For Me

I end the day
Thinking of you,
I wake up in bed
And you're not there for me!
 
It is reborn once again
Within my heart,
This maddening desire
To feel passion.
 
The truth hurts
When I think about you.
I try not to remember
That because of you, I've suffered!
 
[Chorus:]
In a world that is only mine,
I don't feel so lonely...
Not having what is yours,
I feel a knot in my throat!
Why is it that I want
Your body, for me?
I've already lost the power
Of making you feel like that!
 
I end the day
Thinking of you...
 
The truth hurts
When I think about you.
I try not to remember
That because of you, I've suffered!
 
[Chorus:]
In a world that is only mine,
I don't feel so lonely...
Not having what is yours,
I feel a knot in my throat!
Why is it that I want
Your body, for me?
I've already lost the power
Of making you feel like that!
 
Like that...
 

Listen to Me (Oh My God)

Listen to me, oh my God!
I have prayed for love,
But nothing is happening for me...
Listen to me, oh my God!
I have that which I don't deserve,
What isn't worthy of me!
 
Listen to me, oh my God!
Could it be that I'm bereft
Of Your divine hand?
Forgive me for telling You this,
But I'm going crazy
Because of this fate of mine!
 
[Chorus:]
Tell me, my Lord
What must I do to be happy?
I endure love pains
Without knowing what pain I have caused!
Always, wherever I may go,
I will ask with devotion:
Please, dear God, do listen
This prayer of mine!
 
Tell me, my Lord
What must I do to be happy?
I endure love pains
Without knowing what pain I have caused!
If it's necessary, I'd go
And light up yet another candle...
Please, dear God, do listen
And do forgive me, as well!
 
Listen to me, oh my God!
I have asked for it so many times,
And nobody appears...
Listen to me, oh my God!
Could it be that You're far, then,
Even of my plea?
 
Listen to me, oh my God!
I don't doubt that You love me...
I'm just desperate
For every time, the pain
Appears to be growing
And it never, ever ends!
 
[Chorus:]
Tell me, my Lord
What must I do to be happy?
I endure love pains
Without knowing what pain I have caused!
Always, wherever I may go,
I will ask with devotion:
Please, dear God, do listen
This prayer of mine!
 
Tell me, my Lord
What must I do to be happy?
I endure love pains
Without knowing what pain I have caused!
If it's necessary, I'd go
And light up yet another candle...
Please, dear God, do listen
And do forgive me, as well!

[Chorus:]

This prayer of mine!
 
Tell me, my Lord
What must I do to be happy?
I endure love pains
Without knowing what pain I have caused!
If it's necessary, I'd go
And light up yet another candle...
Please, dear God, do listen
And do forgive me, as well!
