Lyrics
O fado fez-se ao mar nas caravelas
Despediu-se do Tejo e fez viagem
Cantou-o p’lo convs a marinhagem
Quando no cu acordavam estrelas
Saudades amargou de seus amores
Adoeceu febril e quase morto
Quando j no pensava a encontrar porto
Foi quando achou descanso nos Aores
O fado ganhou sotaques diferentes
No falar das nossas gentes
Qual deles mais engraado
que o fado, mesmo fora de Lisboa
Se mexe com uma pessoa
Nunca deixa de ser fado
Como era marujo e atrevido
Andou com uma viola de paixes
Mas tendo ela j dois coraes
Tomou outra de amores e foi corrido
Alguns afirmam mesmo ser verdade
Que nunca se refez desses amores
Tornou-se vagabundo p’los Aores
E de tanto chorar fez-se saudade
Lyrics translation
Fado went to sea in the caravelas
He said goodbye to the Tagus and made a trip
He sang it to the sea.
When in the ass woke up stars
Bitter longing for your loves
Feverish and almost dead
When j didn't think to find port
That's when he found rest in the Aores
Fado gained different accents
In the talk of our people
Which of them funniest
that fado, even outside of Lisbon
If you move with a person
It never ceases to be fado
How he was a sailor and cheeky
Walked with a viola of passions
But having her j two coraes
Took another of loves and was run
Some even claim to be true
That never re-made these loves
He became a vagabond P ' Los Aores
And so much weeping was missed
