Lyrics

Amalia Rodrigues - Nao e Desgraca Ser Pobre

Não é desgraça ser pobre,
não é desgraça ser louca:
desgraça é trazer o fado
no coração e na boca. Nesta vida desvairada,
ser feliz é coisa pouca.
Se as loucas não sentem nada,
não é desgraça ser louca. Ao nascer trouxe uma estrela;Amalia Rodrigues - Nao e Desgraca Ser Pobre - http://motolyrics.com/amalia-rodrigues/nao-e-desgraca-ser-pobre-lyrics-english-translation.html
nela o destino traçado.
Não foi desgraça trazé-la:
desgraça é trazer o fado. Desgraça é andar a gente
de tanto cantar, já rouca,
e o fado, teimosamente,
no coração e na boca. Submitter's comments:  Title needs a few accents to be proper Portuguese!

English translation

Amalia Rodrigues - It is not a Disgrace to be Poor (English translation)

It's not a disgrace to be Poor
It's not a disgrace to be crazy

Disgrace is to have Fado
in your heart and on your lips

In this whirlwind life
Happiness is but a small thing
If crazy people don't feel anything
then it's not a disgrace to be crazy

At birth I brought a starAmalia Rodrigues - Nao e Desgraca Ser Pobre - http://motolyrics.com/amalia-rodrigues/nao-e-desgraca-ser-pobre-lyrics-english-translation.html
on which my fate was outlined
It was not a disgrace to bring it
Disgrace was to bring Fado

Disgrace is to walk among people
husky-voiced from too much singing
and the Fado stubbornly
in my heart and on my lips
