Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

Safada era a cara do anjo

Naughty was the face of the angel

que no quarto noturno pintou

who, in the nightly room, appeared

no meu ouvido falou loucuras de amor

whispering craziness of love in my ear

Pegou minha mão e saímos na troca de passos

He took my hand, and we danced in step

Um beijo molhado escandalizado

A scandalized wet kiss

Que até minha gata se escandalizou

Even my cat was scandalized

E com um penacho de índio ele me coroou (BIS)

And with an Indian feather, he crowned me (REPEAT)

Sou anjo avesso, sou tupã presente

I'm the opposite angel, I'm present Tupã

Guerreiro sempre, galho da semente (BIS)

Always a warrior, branch of the seed (REPEAT)

Do algodão, do pau-brasil, da serpentina que coloriu

From cotton, from Brazilwood, from the serpentine that colored

Os olhos do cego, a voz do anão,

The eyes of the blind, the voice of the dwarf

A vida e o meu coração de leão

Life and my lion heart
