Lyrics

A cantar, A cantar é que te deixas levar
A cantar — Tantas vezes enganada te vi
Ai Lisboa
Quem te dera estar segura
Que o teu canto é sem mistura
E nasce mesmo de ti
Lenço branco
Perdeste-te no cais
Pensaste «nunca mais»
Disseram-te «até quando»?
A cantar
Fizeram-te calar
A dor que, para dentro, ias chorando
Tanta vez
Quiseste desistir
E vimos te partir
Sem norte
A cantar
Fizeram-te rimar
A sorte que te davam com má sorte
A cantar, a cantar é que te deixas levar
A cantar tantas vezes enganada te vi
Ai Lisboa, quem te dera estar segura
Que o teu canto é sem mistura
E nasce mesmo de ti
Tanta vez
Para te enganar a fome
Usaram o teu nome
Nas marchas da Avenida
A cantar
Puseram-te a marchar
Enquanto ias cantando distraída
A cantar
Deixaram-te sonhar
Enquanto foi sonhar à toa
A meu ver
Fizeram-te esquecer
A verdadeira marcha de Lisboa
A cantar, a cantar é que te deixas levar
A cantar tantas vezes enganada te vi
Ai Lisboa, quem te dera estar segura
Que o teu canto é sem mistura
E nasce mesmo de ti
A cantar, a cantar é que te deixas levar
A cantar tentas vezes enganada te vi
Ai Lisboa, quem te dera estar segura
Que o teu canto é sem mistura
E nasce mesmo de ti

Lyrics translation

Singing, singing is what you get carried away
Singing-so often deceived I saw you
Ai Lisboa
I wish you were safe.
That your singing is unmixed
And it's born of you
White scarf
You got lost on the pier.
You thought " never again»
Did they tell you "until when"?
Singing
They made you shut up
The pain inside you were crying
So many times
You wanted to quit.
And we saw you leave
No North
Singing
They made you rhyme
The luck they gave you with bad luck
Singing, singing is what you get carried away
Singing so often deceived I saw you
There Lisbon, I wish you were safe
That your singing is unmixed
And it's born of you
So many times
To deceive you hunger
They used your name.
On the Avenue marches
Singing
They made you march
While you were singing distracted
Singing
They let you dream
While it was dreaming for nothing
In my opinion
They made you forget
The real Lisbon March
Singing, singing is what you get carried away
Singing so often deceived I saw you
There Lisbon, I wish you were safe
That your singing is unmixed
And it's born of you
Singing, singing is what you get carried away
Singing you try sometimes deceived I saw you
There Lisbon, I wish you were safe
That your singing is unmixed
And it's born of you
