Fado

What is there to say about Fado, this guitar sound?
And the guttural voices, that has a twang of
Arabia in its heart and is pure poetry.

Life, loss longing and finally death in songs
that celebrate love's unbearable sweetness,
our tragedy and the unobtainable.


Yes, sing me a Fado, let me hear the guitar
I will close my eyes, float in a sea of melancholy
and remember you
