Quarto Negro Lyrics in English Amado Batista
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Quarto Negro by Amado Batista from Portuguese to English.
Amanhece o dia solidão é fera
Day breaks, loneliness is a beast
E eu aqui sozinho nessa longa espera
And I here alone in this long wait
Neste quarto negro de saudade
In this dark room of longing
Sem você
Without you
Frases que enfeitaram os meus sonhos
Phrases that adorned my dreams
Dessas velhas cartas tão risonhas
From those old, cheerful letters
Desbotaram todas com o pranto
All faded with the tears
Que chorei
That I cried
Meu sorriso alegre se desfez
My happy smile vanished
Com a falta do seu lindo olhar
With the absence of your beautiful gaze
Morreu a esperança do meu peito
The hope in my chest died
Nesta ânsia de lhe encontrar
In this yearning to find you
Ah se você me aparecesse
Oh, if you'd appear to me
De braços abertos pra voltar
With open arms to return
Com um beijo eu entregaria
With a kiss I'd give
Todo o amor que eu tenho pra lhe dar
All the love I have to give you
Meu sorriso alegre se desfez
My happy smile vanished
Com a falta do seu lindo olhar
With the absence of your beautiful gaze
Morreu a esperança do meu peito
The hope in my chest died
Nesta ânsia de lhe encontrar
In this yearning to find you
Ah se você me aparecesse
Oh, if you'd appear to me
De braços abertos pra voltar
With open arms to return
Com um beijo eu entregaria
With a kiss I'd give
Todo o amor que eu tenho pra lhe dar
All the love I have to give you
