Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

Naquela manhã

In that morning

Eu acordei tarde, de bode

I woke up late, in a bad mood

Com tudo que sei

With everything I know

Acendi uma vela

I lit a candle

Abri a janela

I opened the window

E pasmei

And was amazed


Alguns edifícios explodiam

Some buildings were exploding

Pessoas corriam

People were running

Eu disse bom dia

I said good morning

E ignorei

And ignored


Telefonei

I made a call

Pr'um toque tenha qualquer

For any touch to have

E não tinha

And there was none

Ninguém respondeu

No one answered

Eu disse: "Deus, Nostradamus

I said: "God, Nostradamus"

Forças do bem e da maldade

Forces of good and evil

Vudoo, calamidade, juízo final

Voodoo, calamity, judgment day

Então és tu?"

Is it you then?"


De repente na minha frente

Suddenly in front of me

A esquadria de alumínio caiu

The aluminum frame fell

Junto com vidro fumê

Along with tinted glass

O que fazer? Tudo ruiu

What to do? Everything crumbled

Começou tudo a carcomer

Everything started to decay

Gritei, ninguém ouviu

I screamed, no one heard

E olha que eu ainda fiz psiu!

And look, I even said shush!


O dia ficou noite

The day turned into night

O sol foi pro além

The sun went beyond

Eu preciso de alguém

I need someone

Vou até a cozinha

I go to the kitchen

Encontro Carlota, a cozinheira, morta

I find Carlota, the cook, dead

Diante do meu pé, Zé

In front of my foot, Zé

Eu falei, eu gritei, eu implorei:

I spoke, I shouted, I begged:

"Levanta e serve um café

"Get up and serve some coffee

Que o mundo acabou!"

The world has ended!"
