Um Chorinho

Oh, my love, your pain, our life
No longer fit in the beat
Of my poor ukulele
Oh, I wish
At least for a moment
To gather all the suffering
To put in this little cry
Oh, I wish to have a cry of great size
To sing with a strong voice
And announce the light of day
But who am I
To sing so loudly in the square
If the day comes, the day passes
And the square becomes emptier

Come, brunette
Don't ignore me anymore
My cry is a small thing
But stolen with great difficulty
From the heart
My little cry
Is not a solution
While I sing alone
Whoever crosses my path
Doesn't stop

But I insist
And whoever wants to understand me
Until some light turns on, this song continues
I join my song to every cry, every sob
Until someone joins me to sing in the street
