Full lyrics

A saudade se virou numa fogueira

E pegou fogo dentro do meu coração

A tristeza foi em mim uma coleira

E me amarrou na estaca da solidão


Ei tá tá, que coça da muléstia

Ei tá tá, que bicho roedor

Ei tá tá, que saudade miserável

É ficar distante do meu amor


Na poeira sufocou-se o meu lamento

E onde estou faço o seu nome no chão

Só as cinzas restam dos meus sentimentos

Caiu na água meu balão de ilusão

Translation

saudade turned into a bonfire

And caught fire inside my heart

Sadness was a collar on me

And tied me to the stake of loneliness


Ei tá tá, what a terrible itch

Ei tá tá, what a gnawing creature

Ei tá tá, what a miserable saudade

It is being distant from my love


In the dust my lament was suffocated

And where I am I make your name on the ground

Only ashes remain of my feelings

My sky lantern of illusion fell into the water
