Lyrics
Porque andas tu mal comigo
á² minha doce trigueira
quem me dera ser o trigo
Que andando pisas na eira
Quando entre as mais raparigas
Vais cantando entre as searas
Eu choro ao ouvir-te as cantigas
que cantas nas manhá£s claras
Por isso nada me medra
Ando curvado e sombrio
Quem me dera ser a pedra
em que tu lavas no rio
E falam com tristes vozes
Do teu amor singular
Aquela casa onde coses
com varanda para o mar
(e) por isso nada me medra
ando curvado e sombrio
quem me dera ser a pedra
em que tu lavas no rio
Lyrics translation
Because you're wrong with me
A2 my sweet wheatgrass
I wish I was the wheat
That walking you step on the floor
When among the most girls
You're singing among the searas
I cry when I hear your songs
what do you sing in the light mornings
So nothing fears me
Ando bent and gloomy
I wish I was the stone
where you wash in the river
And they speak with sad voices
Of your singular love
That house where you sew
with balcony to the sea
(e) so nothing fears me
ando bent and gloomy
I wish I was the stone
where you wash in the river
