Blusa Vermelha
Chico Rey e Paraná
Red Blouse
When I look at the wall I see your portrait
Tears bathe my face in endless weeping
I sit on the bed and stay alone in the room
The cursed longing comes and takes hold of me
I get up, go to the wardrobe and open the doors
And see the red blouse you left
Then despair steals my calm
I go out to the street and even my soul
Weeps in silence feeling my pain
God Almighty I make a request to you
Send relief to this suffering heart
If she ever returns, I thank you
But to suffer as I suffer, I prefer a thousand times
That you send me death
I get up, go to the wardrobe and open the doors
And see the red blouse you left
Then despair steals my calm
I go out to the street and even my soul
Weeps in silence feeling my pain
God Almighty I make a request to you
Send relief to this suffering heart
If she ever returns, I thank you
But to suffer as I suffer, I prefer a thousand times
That you send me death
