Full lyrics
Perdi aquela rosa perfumada
Fiquei sem a minha amada
A quem dei meu coração
O que me resta é a saudade no meu peito
Deste amor que foi desfeito
Sem ter motivo ou razão
(2x)
E hoje não tenho mais alegria
Se vivo na boemia
Há um motivo pra isso
Se bebo é pra esquecer meu fracasso
E você no meu lugar
Também faria o que eu faço
(2x)
Translation
I lost that perfumed rose
I was left without my beloved
To whom I gave my heart
What remains for me is the saudade in my chest
Of this love that was undone
Without reason or cause
(2x)
And today I have no more joy
If I live in bohemia
There's a reason for that
If I drink, it's to forget my failure
And you in my place
Would also do what I do
(2x)
