Lyrics of Procura - Amália Rodrigues

Procura (original)

Corri a terra, o mar, o céu azul
Dentro e fora de mim, de norte a sul
O que buscava assim não sabia
Pedia-me mentiras e sorria
Se passava entre flores ali ficava
E a beijos que me disse me emprestava
Mas nenhuma das flores era a flor
E nenhum dos amores era o amor
O que buscava assim não sabia
Pedia-me mentiras e sorria
Quantos caminhos andados e perdidos
Nos caminhos mortais dos meus sentidos
E um dia o da verdade veio a mim
E agora já me dou princípio e fim
Sou toda cicatrizes e cansaços
Mas tenho enfim o abraço dos tens braços

(translation)

I ran the land, the sea, the blue sky
Inside and outside of me, from north to south
What I was looking for, I didn't know
He asked me for lies and smiled
If he passed among flowers, there he stayed
And the kisses you told me lent me
But none of the flowers were in bloom
And none of the loves was love
What I was looking for, I didn't know
He asked me for lies and smiled
How many paths walked and lost
In the mortal ways of my senses
And one day the truth came to me
And now I have beginning and end
I'm all scars and fatigue
But I finally have the hug of your arms
