FADO - 5/5 : April In Portugal




APRIL IN PORTUGAL
一首令很多老樂迷皆不會忘記的經典, 理所當然它是出自 "Portugal" 葡萄牙的 "Coimbra Fado" 系列歌曲!
 
 
 
 

APRIL IN PORTUGAL - Les Baxter Orchestra 1953


C O I M B R A  - Amália Rodrigues
 Music & Lyric: Raul Ferrão - 1947

Coimbra é uma lição
de sonho e tradição
o lente é uma canção
e a Lua a faculdade
o livro é uma mulher
só passa quem souber
e aprende-se a dizer saudade

Coimbra do choupal
ainda és Capital
do amor em Portugal ainda
Coimbra onde uma vez
com lágrimas se fez
a história dessa Inês tão linda

Coimbra das canções
tão meiga que nos pões
os nossos corações a nú
Coimbra dos doutores
p'ra nós os teu cantores
a fonte dos amores és tu

I found my April dreams
in Portugal with you
when we discover romance
like I never knew
my head was in the clouds
my heart went crazy too
and madly I say I love you

Coimbra é uma lição
de sonho e tradição
o lente é uma canção
e a Lua a faculdade
o livro é uma mulher
só passa quem souber
e aprende-se a dizer saudade


APRIL IN PORTUGAL - "The Whisp'ring Serenade"
Music: Raul Ferrão - 1947
Lyric: Jimmy Kennedy
Vocal: Jane Morgan

I found my April dream in Portugal with you,
When we discovered romance, like I never knew.
My head was in the clouds. My heart went crazy too.
And madly I said, I love you.

Too soon I heard you say,
This dream is for a day.
Thats Portugal and love in April!
And when the showers fell,
Those tears I know too well,
They told me it was Spring fooling me.

I found my April dream in Portugal with you,
When we discovered romance, like I never knew.
Then morning brought the rain, and now my dream is through,
But still my heart says, I love you.

This sad reality, to know it couldnt be, 
Thats Portugal and love in April. The music and the wine
convinced me you were mine,
but it was just the Spring fooling me.
Foolish me
