from FADOS (2007), a movie directed by Carlos Saura
greenday1978's translation:
Independent heart
It was Gods will
For me to live in this anxiety
That all the wows are mine
And all longing, my possession.
It was Gods will!
What strange way to live
Has this heart of mine
To live a wondering (lost) life.
Who gave me this gift
Of such a strange life?
Independent heart
Heart that I can not command
You live lost amongst people
Stubbornly bleeding
Independent Heart
I will go with you no more
Stop! beat no more!
If you do not know where you are going
Why do you keep on running forth?
I will go with you no more!
If you do not know where you are going
I will go with you no more!
it was written and performed by Alfredo Marceneiro
