Vielas de Alfama

Horas mortas, noite escura
Uma guitarra a trinar
Uma mulher a cantar
O seu fado de amargura
E através da vidraça
Enegrecida e quebrada
Aquela voz magoada
Entristece quem lá passa
Vielas de alfama
Ruas da lisboa antiga
Não há fado que não diga
Coisas do vosso passado
Vielas de alfama
Beijadas pelo luar
Quem me dera lá morar
P'ra viver junto do fado
A Lua às vezes desperta
E apanha desprevenidas
Duas bocas muito unidas
Numa porta entreaberta
E então a Lua, corada
Ciente da sua culpa
Como quem pede desculpa
Esconde-se envergonhada
