Alentejo Bread Soup
Garlic, coriander, and salt
It's also made with pennyroyal
That dish that after all
Is very much from our Alentejo
After crushing the garlic
And with the water boiling
Cut the bread into pieces
It's ready, let's eat
It's easy to make
It's not much work
It's boiling water
Coriander and garlic
Coriander and garlic
And boiling water
It's not much work
And it's easy to make
With the bread nice and hard
And radish to go with
Good and pure olive oil
There's nothing better to give
Codfish bread soup
With crushed olives
It's also not bad
With some grilled sardines
It's easy to make
I remember when I was young
Before going to work
Having for breakfast
A good garlic bread soup
My grandmother used to tell me
The strength that bread soup gives
She ate it every day
And ten children are here
It's easy to make
Traditional Alentejo
