Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

Na praça Clóvis

In Clóvis Square

Minha carteira foi batida

My wallet was snatched

Tinha vinte e cinco cruzeiros

It had twenty-five cruzeiros

E o teu retrato

And your picture

Vinte e cinco

Twenty-five

Francamente achei barato

Frankly, I found it cheap

Prá me livrarem

To rid me

Do meu atraso de vida

Of my life's delay

Eu já devia Ter rasgado e não podia

I should have torn it and couldn't

Esse retrato cujo olhar me maltratava e perseguia

This picture whose gaze hurt and haunted me

Um dia veio o lanceiro

One day the lancer came

Naquele aperto de praça

In that tight square situation

Vinte e cinco, francamente, foi de graça

Twenty-five, frankly, was free
