O Barco Vai de Saida

Fausto Fausto

The Boat Sets Sail

The boat sets sail
Goodbye, oh Alfama pier
If now I'm leaving
I take you with me, oh green cane
Remember me, oh my love
Remember me on this adventure
Beyond madness
Beyond the equator

Ah! What an ungrateful fate I can complain about
The homeland's little abundance
Full of sorrows, oh breakwater
With so many dangers, oh my life
With so many fears and jolts
That I'm already jumping
That I'm fleeing

Without counting that hidden story
For serving as a servant to that lady
She also served herself so seductive
It was a sin
It was a sin
And it was a sin, sir
What a good life it was in Lisbon

Gingão with a strong beat
Corsair without a crusade
To the sound of the ordered dance
In lands of pepper and wonder
With dreams of silver and fantasy
With dreams of the color of the rainbow
You go crazy if you see them
You go crazy, magic

I already have the sail inflated
Shameless Marrano
Jew without a thing without a pillow
I'm on a trip, oh what a start
I only see colors, oh what joy
I only see pirates and treasures
They are silvers, they are golds
They are nights, they are days

I go on the astonishing throne of the waters
I go on the tremendous blow of the winds
I go above my thoughts
It gives me chills
It gives me chills
And it gives me chills, sir
What a good life it was in Lisbon

The sea of burning waters
The delirium of the skies
The fury of the windward
Lower the sail and go sailor to the helm
Turn the boat and fall sailor to the sea
Turn the boat at the curve of death
Look at my luck
Look at my misfortune

And after the boat is turned
Great roars and screams
In the salvation of the afflicted
Skin, kill, grab
Oh, who helps me
Pray, implore, escape
Oh, what a mess
Pray, heroes and eunuchs tremble
They are Moors, they are Turks
Moors help

That is a dreadful storm
That goes beyond what is eternal
That was the portrait of hell
It sinks
It sinks
And it sinks, sir
What a good life it was in Lisbon.
