Lyrics
Soltei meu primeiro pombo-correio
Com a carta pr’aquela mulher que me abandonou
Soltei o segundo, o terceiro, meu pombal terminou
Ela não veio nem o pombo voltou
Depois que aquela mulher me abandonou
Não sei porque minha vida desandou
Meu canário morreu
A roseira murchou
Meu papagaio emudeceu
O cano d'água furou
E até o sol por pirraça
Invadiu minha vidraça
E o retrato dela desbotou
Depois que aquela mulher me abandonou
Não sei porque minha vida desandou
Meu canário morreu
A roseira murchou
Meu papagaio emudeceu
O cano d'água furou
E até o sol por pirraça
Invadiu minha vidraça
E o retrato dela desbotou
Lyrics translation
I let go of my first pigeon
With the letter PR'quelle woman who abandoned me
I released the second, the third, my Dove finished
She didn't come nor did the pigeon come back
After that woman abandoned me
I don't know why my life went awry
My canary died
The Rose Rose withered
My parrot has been mute
The water pipe pierced
And even the sun by pirraça
Broke into my window
And her portrait faded
After that woman abandoned me
I don't know why my life went awry
My canary died
The Rose Rose withered
My parrot has been mute
The water pipe pierced
And even the sun by pirraça
Broke into my window
And her portrait faded
