Cucurrucucu Paloma - Caetano Veloso 

They say that at nights
all he could do was cry all the time
they say he won´t eat
all he could do was drink at all times
they swear that heaven itself
would tremble hearing his crying
He suffered so much for her
that even on his death he was calling her

ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, he cried
ay, ay ay ay ay, he sobbed
ay ay ay ay ay he sang
from a deadly passion, he died

That a sad dove
early in the morning goes to sing
at the lonely little house
with it´s liitle doors wide open
They swear that that dove
is nothing else than his soul
still waiting for her return

Cucucrrucucu, dove
cucucrrucucu, don´t cry
stones will never, dove
know anything about love

cucurrucucu, cucurrucucu
cucurrucucu, dove don´t cry
