Lyrics
Naquele bairro afastado
Onde em criança vivias
A remoer melodias
De uma ternura sem par
Passava todas as tardes
Um realejo risonho
Passava como num sonho
Um realejo a cantar
Depois tu partiste
Ficou triste a rua deserta
Na tarde fria e calma
Ouço ainda o realejo tocar
Ficou a saudade
Comigo a morar
Tu cantas alegre e o realejo
Parece que chora com pena de ti
Depois tu partiste
Ficou triste a rua deserta
Na tarde fria e calma
Ouço ainda o realejo tocar
Ficou a saudade
Comigo a morar
Tu cantas alegre e o realejo
Parece que chora com pena de ti
Lyrics translation
In that remote neighborhood
Where as a child you lived
Remoer melodies
Of an unparalleled tenderness
I spent every afternoon
A realejo laugh
It passed like a dream
A realejo singing
Then you left.
It was sad the deserted street
In the cold and calm afternoon
I still hear the realejo play
Missed
With me living
You sing cheerful and the realejo
She seems to cry with pity for you
Then you left.
It was sad the deserted street
In the cold and calm afternoon
I still hear the realejo play
Missed
With me living
You sing cheerful and the realejo
She seems to cry with pity for you
