Flor de Tangerina Lyrics Translation in English
Alceu Valença
Portuguese Lyrics
English Translation
Hoje eu sonhei que ela voltava
Today I dreamed that she came back
E vinha muito mais que linda
And she came much more than beautiful
À meia-luz me acordava
In the dim light, she woke me up
Cheirando à flor de tangerina
Smelling like tangerine blossom
Eu lhe amava e mergulhava
I loved her and immersed myself
No seu olhar de onça-menina
In her gaze of jaguar-girl
E docemente me afogava
And sweetly drowned
Em suas águas cristalinas
In her crystalline waters
Eu lhe amava e mergulhava
I loved her and immersed myself
No seu olhar de onça-menina
In her gaze of jaguar-girl
E docemente me afogava
And sweetly drowned
Em suas águas cristalinas
In her crystalline waters
Em suas águas
In her waters
Depois sonhei que ela voltava
Later, I dreamed she came back
E dessa vez bem mais que linda
And this time, much more than beautiful
À meia-luz me afagava
In the dim light, she caressed me
E sua pele era tão fina
And her skin was so delicate
Quando acordei, meu bem chegava
When I woke up, my love arrived
Seria onça ou menina?
Would she be a jaguar or a girl?
Chegar assim, de madrugada
Arriving like this, in the early morning
Cheirando à flor de tangerina
Smelling like tangerine blossom
Cheirando à flor
Smelling like a blossom
Depois sonhei que ela voltava
Later, I dreamed she came back
E dessa vez bem mais que linda
And this time, much more than beautiful
À meia-luz me afagava
In the dim light, she caressed me
E sua pele era tão fina
And her skin was so delicate
Quando acordei, meu bem chegava
When I woke up, my love arrived
Seria onça ou menina?
Would she be a jaguar or a girl?
Chegar assim, de madrugada
Arriving like this, in the early morning
Cheirando à flor de tangerina
Smelling like tangerine blossom
Quando acordei, meu bem chegava
When I woke up, my love arrived
Seria onça ou menina?
Would she be a jaguar or a girl?
Chegar assim, de madrugada
Arriving like this, in the early morning
Cheirando à flor de tangerina
Smelling like tangerine blossom
Cheirando à flor
Smelling like a blossom
