Eurovision Portugal 1983 - Armando Gama - Esta balada que te dou

"Esta balada que te dou" ("This ballad that I give you") was the Portuguese entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1983, performed in Portuguese by Armando Gama.

The song, as the title suggests, is a piano-driven ballad. Gama describes the end of a relationship, all the while dedicating "this pretty ballad" to his former lover and explaining that there is nothing wrong with being sad.

The song was performed seventeenth on the night (following Israel's Ofra Haza with "Khay" and preceding Austria's Westend with "Hurricane"). At the close of voting, it had received 33 points, placing 13th in a field of 20.
