Lisboa Antiga
Celso Ricardo (Portugal)
Old Lisbon
Old Lisbon, city full of charm and beauty
Always smiling so lovely
And in dressing, always graceful
In the white veil of nostalgia
Covering your face, beautiful princess
Look, gentlemen, at this Lisbon from other eras
Of the five kings of bullfights and royal bullfights
Of the parties, of the centuries-old processions
Of the popular morning cries
That will never return
Lisbon of gold and silver
I don't see any other more beautiful
Always charming, playing
And singing, happily
Your face is reflected
In the crystal blue of the Tagus
Look, gentlemen, at this Lisbon from other eras
Of the five kings of bullfights and royal bullfights
Of the parties, of the centuries-old processions
Of the popular morning cries
That will never return
Of the parties, of the centuries-old processions
Of the popular morning cries
That will never return
