Lyrics

Lisboa, já te vi da outra margem:
Penélope deitada à beira-Tejo
Esperando que ele regresse de viagem
Tecendo ponte a ponte o teu desejo
Ele é o teu eterno marinheiro
A alma aventureira em movimento;
O que pensando em ti, partiu primeiro
E navegou por ti além do vento!
Sonhaste essa paixão desde menina
Cumpriste o teu bordado de mulher
Arredondaste o seio da colina
Molhaste os pés num mar a acontecer…
Ele vai olhar-te assim, entrando a barra
Tu já ergues a barra da camisa
E, vendo a tua anca da guitarra
Ulisses te possui e te batiza

Lyrics translation

Lisbon, I've seen you from the other side:
Penelope lying on the Tejo shore
Waiting for him to return from travel
Weaving bridge the bridge your desire
He is your eternal sailor
The moving adventurous soul;
What thinking of you, left first
And sailed for you beyond the wind!
Have you dreamed of this passion since you were a girl
You did your woman embroidery.
You rounded the breast of the hill
You wet your feet in a sea going on…
He'll look at you like this, entering the bar
You already raise the bar of the shirt
And, seeing your guitar hip
Odysseus possesses you and baptizes you
