Menina Dos Olhos Tristes

José Afonso José Afonso

Girl with Sad Eyes

Girl with sad eyes
What makes you cry so much
The little soldier doesn't come back
From the other side of the sea

Let's go, pensive sir
Look at the pipe going out
The little soldier doesn't come back
From the other side of the sea

Lady with tired eyes
Why does the loom tire you
The little soldier doesn't come back
From the other side of the sea

A friend is very sad
A letter made him cry
The little soldier doesn't come back
From the other side of the sea

The moon, which is a traveler
Is the one who can inform us
The little soldier is coming back
From the other side of the sea

The little soldier is coming back
He's almost here
He comes in a pine box
This time the little soldier
Will never set sail again
