Translation of the song Rouxinol, repenica o cante artist Portuguese Folk

Rouxinol, repenica o cante

Nightingale, trill the song

Ao passar da passadeira!

As you leave the layered tile roof behind!

Nunca mais tornas a Beja,

Never return to Beja,

Ó ai!

Oh my!

Sem passares à Vidigueira.

Without passing through Vidigueira.

Sem passares à Vidigueira,

Without passing through Vidigueira,

Sem ires beber ao falcante

Without going to drink in the fountain's spigot

E, ao passar da passadeira,

And, as you leave the layered tile roof behind,

Ó ai!

Oh my!

Se houver quem me ensinara,

If there were someone to teach me,

Ó ai!

Oh my!

Quem aprendia era eu...

I'd be the one to learn...
