O anel que tu me deste

The ring that you gave me

No Domingo da Trindade,

On Trinity Sunday,

Era-me largo no dedo,

Was too big for my finger,

Apertado na amizade.

Too tight for my friendship.

Do get married, oh cousin:

Tira a certidão.

Get your (marriage) certificate.

Era de vidro; quebrou...

Tanto dure a tua vida

Como o anel me durou!

As that ring lasted for me!
