Lyrics
Sentei à minha mesa
Os meus demónios interiores
Falei-lhes com franqueza
Dos meus piores temores
Tratei-os com carinho
Pus jarra de flores
Abri o melhor vinho
Trouxe amêndoas e licores
Chamei-os pelo nome
Quebrei a etiqueta
Matei-lhes a sede e a fome
Dei-lhes cabo da dieta
Conheci bem cada um
Pus de lado toda a farsa
Abri a minha alma
Como se fosse um comparsa
E no fim, já bem bebidos
Demos abraços fraternos
Saíram de mansinho
Aos primeiros alvores
De copos bem erguidos
Brindámos aos infernos
Fizeram-se ao caminho
Sem mágoas nem rancores
Adeus, foi um prazer!
Disseram a cantar
Mantém a mesa posta
Porque havemos de voltar
Lyrics translation
I sat at my table
My inner demons
I spoke frankly to them.
Of my worst fears
I treated them with affection
Put jar of flowers
I opened the best wine
I brought almonds and liqueurs.
I called them by name
I broke the label
I killed their thirst and hunger
I ruined their diet.
I knew each one well
I put aside the whole charade.
I opened my soul
As if it were a crony
And in the end, already well drunk
We gave fraternal hugs
They came out quietly
At the first dawns
Of well-erected cups
We toast to the underworld
They made their way
No heartaches or grudges
Goodbye, it was a pleasure!
They said to sing
Keep the table on.
'Cause we'll be back
