Full lyrics
Ela voltou por que sentiu saudade
Voltou chorando e veio pra ficar
Se arrependeu e eu lhe perdoei
Da ingratidão que só me fez penar
Se arrependeu e eu lhe perdoei
Da ingratidão que só me fez penar
Naturalmente ela viu toda a verdade
Num punhado de carinho e na dor de uma saudade
A nossa vida eu já transformei
Num jardim florido de amor e carinho
Sequei seu pranto e matei a saudade
Daquele amor que me deixou sozinho
Sequei seu pranto e matei a saudade
Daquele amor que me deixou sozinho
Translation
She came back because she felt saudade (a deep longing)
She came back crying and came to stay
She regretted it and I forgave her
For the ingratitude that only made me suffer
She regretted it and I forgave her
For the ingratitude that only made me suffer
Naturally, she saw the whole truth
In a handful of affection and the pain of a saudade
Our life I have already transformed
Into a flowery garden of love and tenderness
I dried her tears and satisfied the saudade
For that love that left me alone
I dried her tears and satisfied the saudade
For that love that left me alone
