More than twelve hundred souls
Meet their watery grave.
German U-boat patrols
Spark a fatal shockwave.

This echo of the past
Resounds throughout history.

Ocean gushes inside.
The battered stern won't float,
All controls lock their slide.

And my eyes closed in disbelief;

They sank the Lusitania, 

And my heart palpitated.

My friend, this world reels and tumbles and faints,

Lost in endless crises and disasters;

Aghast at the senseless violence and...

Those illegal acts
are sort against each other
who was right brother

Carrying ammo
playing outside of the rules
the Brits more fool them

No flags were flying

Portugal is a place of dreams
It's natural landscapes covered in
green and yellow
Moderate tempertures all year long
Houses built of dark and light stone
Friendly people greeting you with Benvindos!
Making foreigners feel right at home.
The food alone is...

The Magic Almond Tree 

And now it is time 
For the ugly almond tree to blossom
And be a bride of spring
And how beautiful she is
Amongst dowdy olive trees that may
Have cornered the culinary market
The beauty...
