Lyrics

Amália Rodrigues — Maria Da Cruz
Chamava-se ela Maria
De sobrenome da Cruz
E na aldeia onde ela vivia, sorria
Vivia na paz de Jesus
Tinha um amor, a quem ela
Seu coração entregara
Junto ao altar da capela
Singela, onde ela
Paixão lhe jurara!
Mas certo dia
Veio trazer-se na aldeia
Que o seu pastor lhe mentia
Que esse amor se extinguia
Como a luz de uma candeia!
Desiludida do seu amor, a Maria
Deixou o lar e, perdida
Saiu dali desvanecida
Foi pro cais da Mouraria!
Sofreu a dor d´amargura
Perdeu o viço e a cor
E não voltou à ventura
À docura, à ternura
Do amor do pastor!
E hoje por cruz, a Maria
Que é da Cruz, por seu fadário
Arrasta na Mouraria
A cruz da agonia
A cruz do Calvário!
Ainda canta
Uma canção quase morta
Traz o pastor na garganta
Oiço já, quando ela canta
Ao passar à sua porta!
Num certo dia
Em que ela, enfim, já vencida
Terminará a agonia
De ainda estar na Mouraria
Toda a cruz da sua vida!

Lyrics translation

Amália Rodrigues-Maria Da Cruz
Her name was Maria
Surname of the cross
And in the village where she lived, she smiled
Lived in the peace of Jesus
Had a love, whom she
Your heart will deliver
By the altar of the chapel
Singela, where she
Passion swore to him!
But one day
Came to bring himself in the village
That your pastor lied to you
That this love died out
Like the light of a lamp!
Disillusioned with his love, Mary
Left home and, lost
He came out of there faded
It was the pier of Mouraria!
Suffered the pain of the width
Lost Vine and color
And did not return to ventura
In docura, in ternura
Of the shepherd's love!
And today by cross, to Mary
Who is of the cross, by his fadario
Drag on the Mouraria
The Cross of agony
The Cross of Calvary!
Still singing
A song Almost Dead
Bring the shepherd down your throat
I hear already, when she sings
By walking past your door!
On a certain day
In which she, At Last, already won
The agony will end
Still in the Mouraria
The whole cross of your life!
