Full lyrics
Larga do meu pé, ô saudade louca
Na minha boca tem um gosto de jiló
Esse amargor é quem me devora
Vá logo embora pra eu não ficar pior
Eu não quero nem pensar no que passou
O tempo levou como um furacão
Eu não quero nem pensar em me calar
Nem me consolar, nessa solidão
Saudade que dói, saudade que rói
É triste, muito triste uma paixão
Saudade que dói, saudade que rói
Machuca e faz doer meu coração
Translation
Get off my back, oh crazy longing
My mouth has the taste of bitter gourd
This bitterness is what devours me
Go away quickly so I don't get worse
I don't even want to think about what happened
Time took it away like a hurricane
I don't even want to think about shutting up
Or consoling myself, in this solitude
Longing that hurts, longing that gnaws
A passion is sad, very sad
Longing that hurts, longing that gnaws
It hurts and makes my heart ache
