Veloso's interpretation of the song is superb. Here is another version from an old Mexican movie by a late Mexican singer named Pedro Infante.
Translation of the first verse
They say that at nights
he went through just crying.
They say that he wasn’t eating,
he went through just drinking.
They swear that Heaven itself
was shuddered by listening his weeping,
how he suffered for her,
and even in his death he was calling at her:
ay, ay, ay, ay, ay he was singing
ay, ay, ay, ay, ay he was wailing
ay, ay, ay, ay, ay he was singing
from mortal passion he was dying.
