Disse-te Adeus E Morri
Amália Rodrigues
I Said Goodbye to You and Died
I said goodbye to you and died
And the dock empty of you
Accepted new tides
Cries of lost conches
Stole from my senses
The seagull that you are
Seagull with still wings
That doesn't feel the early mornings
And wakes up at night crying
Seagull that builds its nest
Because it lost the way
Where it learned to dream
Imprisoned in the womb of the sea
My sad breathing
Suffers the invention of hours
For in the absence you left
My love how did you stay
My love why do you delay
