A Fadista (original)A Fadista (translation)
Vestido negro cingido black dress girded
Cabelo negro comprido long black hair
E negro xaile bordado E black embroidered shawl
Subindo à noite a Avenida Going up the Avenue at night
Quem passa julga-a perdida Who passes thinks her lost
Mulher de vício e pecado Woman of Addiction and Sin
E vai sendo confundida And it is being confused
Insultada e perseguida Insulted and persecuted
P’lo convite costumado By the usual invitation
Entra no café cantante Enter the singing café
Seguida em tom provocante Followed in a provocative tone
P’los que querem comprá-la For those who want to buy it
Uma guitarra a trinar A guitar to sing
Uma sombra devagar a shadow slowly
Avança para o meio da sala Advances to the middle of the room
Ela começa a cantar She starts singing
E os que a queriam comprar And those who wanted to buy it
Sentam-se à mesa a olhá-la They sit at the table and look at her
Canto antigo e tão profundo Ancient song and so deep
Que vindo do fim do mundo That coming from the end of the world
É prece, pranto ou pregão Is it a prayer, crying or tender
E todos os que a ouviam And all who listened to her
À luz das velas pareciam In the candlelight they seemed
Devotos em oração Devotees in Prayer
E os que há pouco a ofendiam And those who had just offended her
De olhos fechado ouviam With eyes closed, they listened
Como a pedir-lhe perdão How to ask for forgiveness
Vestido negro cingido black dress girded
Cabelo negro comprido long black hair
E negro xaile traçado E black traced shawl
Cantando pra aquela mesa Singing to that table
Ela dá-lhes a certeza She gives them the certainty
De já lhes ter perdoado of having already forgiven them
E em frente dela na mesa And in front of her on the table
Como em prece a uma deusa As in prayer to a goddess
Em silêncio ouve-se o fadoIn silence, the fado is heard
