Meu Nome É Saudade Lyrics in English Luís Trigacheiro

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Meu Nome É Saudade by Luís Trigacheiro from Portuguese to English.
My name is longing
Because I leave not knowing when I'll come back
I'm so lonely and nobody knows how to calm me
But not everything in me is bad
Not everything in me is pain
Without me there's no love
My name is longing
I was born when someone left without warning
I'm the hope that one day you'll think
That not everything in me is bad
Not everything in me is pain
Without me there's no love
Today it's me who's gonna be born again
Today I woke up no longer wanting to run away
Today I dreamed, they left me a message
It was longing dreaming for me
My name is longing
I'm the story that nobody wants to hear
I'm the fear that nobody wants to feel
But not everything in me is bad
Not everything in me is pain
Without me there's no love
Today it's me who's gonna be born again
Today I woke up no longer wanting to run away
Today I dreamed, they left me a message
It was longing dreaming for me
Today it's me who's gonna be born again
Today I woke up no longer wanting to run away
Today I dreamed, they left me a message
It was longing dreaming for me
It was longing dreaming for me

SONG MEANING

Meet Saudade, the bittersweet superstar of Portuguese feelings! In this song, Luís Trigacheiro gives the emotion a voice and a name. Saudade introduces itself as a lonely wanderer that never knows when it will return, carrying both pain and tenderness in its suitcase. Yes, it stings, yet it also keeps memories alive and makes love possible. Without this gentle ache, the heart would be empty.

As the verses unfold, the singer stops running from the feeling and decides to be “born again.” He realizes that saudade is not just a shadow of loss, but a message of hope whispering that someone, somewhere, is still thinking of him. The song invites us to embrace our longing, because inside that ache lives remembrance, resilience, and the promise of another meeting.
