As Folhas Mortas (Autumn Leaves)

Music by Joseph Kosma

Portuguese translation by Holly Holmes of English lyrics by Johnny Mercer



As folhas mortas que cai no outono

são coloridas no vento frio

 

Vejo seu rosto o sol te beija

Vejo a mão que era minha

 

Quando você partiu me fez chorar

Invero chega e a luz lunar

 

A saudade dói a mais no peito

Enquanto as folhas caem no chão

The falling leaves drift by my window

The falling leaves of red and gold

 

I see your face the summer kisses

The sunburned hands I used to hold

 

Since you went away the days grow long

And soon I’ll hear old winter’s song

 

But I miss you most of all my darlin’

When autumn leaves start to fall
