Amália Rodrigues

Amália da Piedade Rodrigues,GCSE, GCIH, (July 23, 1920 – October 6, 1999), known as Amália Rodrigues (Portuguese pronunciation: [ɐˈmaliɐ ʁuˈðɾiɣɨʃ]), was a Portuguese singer and actress. She was known as the Rainha do Fado ("Queen of Fado") and was most influential in popularizing fado worldwide. She was one of the most important figures in the genre's development, and enjoyed a 50-year recording and stage career. Amália' performances and choice of repertoire pushed fado's boundaries and helped redefine it and reconfigure it for her and subsequent generations.

Não sei, não sabe ninguém
Porque canto fado, neste tom magoado
De dor e de pranto
E neste momento, todo sofrimento
Eu sinto que a alma cá dentro se acalma
Nos versos que canto
Foi Deus, que deu luz aos olhos
Perfumou as rosas, deu ouro ao sol e prata ao luar
Foi Deus que me pôs no peito
Um rosário de penas que vou desfiando e choro a cantar
E pôs as estrelas no céu
E fez o espaço sem fim
Deu luto as andorinhas
Ai deu-me esta voz a mim

Se canto, não sei porque canto
Misto de ternura, saudade, ventura e talvez de amor
Mas sei que cantando
Sinto o mesmo quando, se tem um desgosto
E o pranto no rosto nos deixa melhor
Foi Deus, que deu voz ao vento
Luz ao firmamento
E deu o azul nas ondas do mar
Ai foi Deus, que me pôs no peito
Um rosário de penas que vou desfiando e choro a cantar
Fez o poeta o rouxinol
Pôs no campo o alecrim
Deu flores à primavera ai
E deu-me esta voz a mim
Deu flores à primavera ai
E deu-me esta voz a mim
