Lisboa cidade amiga
Que és meu berço de embalar
Ensina-me uma cantiga
Das que tu sabes cantar
Uma cantiga singela
Daquelas de enfeitiçar
P'ra eu cantar à janela
Quando o meu amor passar
Sempre que Lisboa canta
Não sei se canta, não sei se reza
A sua voz com carinho
Canta baixinho a sua tristeza
Sempre que Lisboa canta
À gente encanta sua beleza
Pois quando Lisboa canta
Canta o fado concerteza
Eu quero dar-te um castigo
Por tanto te ter amado
Quero que cantes comigo
Os versos do mesmo fado
Quero que Lisboa guarde
Tantos fados que cantei
Para cantar-me mais tarde
Os fados que lhe ensinei
