Moonflower

Amália Rodrigues

Flor de Lua

Solidão, campo aberto
Campo chão, tão deserto
Meu verão, ansiedade
Meu irmão, de saudade

Campo sol, girassol, branco lírio
Ilusão, solidão, meu martírio
Torna a flor, minha flor, campo chão
Torna a dor, minha dor, solidão

Vai o vento a passar
Um lamento a gritar
Dó ré mi, mi fá sol
Dó ré mi, girassol

Velho cardo, esguio nardo, flor de lua
Mi fá sol, girassol, eu sou tua
Torna a flor, minha flor, campo chão
Torna a dor, minha dor, solidão

Grita o mar, geme o vento
Teu olhar, meu tormento
Chora a lua, flor dourada
Madressilva, madrugada

Canta a lua, semi-nua, flor mimosa
Sargaçal, roseiral, minha rosa
Chora a fonte, reza o monte, branca asa
Canta a flor, chora a flor, campa rasa

Moonflower

Loneliness, open field
Flat field, so deserted
My summer, anxiety
My brother, missing

Sunny field, sunflower, white lily
Illusion, loneliness, my torment
Turns the flower, my flower, flat field
Turns the pain, my pain, loneliness

The wind goes by
A lament screaming
Do re mi, mi fa sol
Do re mi, sunflower

Old thistle, slender nard, moonflower
Mi fa sol, sunflower, I am yours
Turns the flower, my flower, flat field
Turns the pain, my pain, loneliness

The sea screams, the wind moans
Your gaze, my torment
The moon cries, golden flower
Honeysuckle, dawn

The moon sings, half-naked, delicate flower
Seaweed, rose garden, my rose
The fountain cries, the mountain prays, white wing
The flower sings, the flower cries, shallow grave
