Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

Namorou a Leonor

Dated Leonor

Se amigou com a Judite

Became friends with Judite

Com a Joana se casou

Married Joana

E depois pediu desquite

And later asked for a divorce


Um grande paquerador

A great seducer

Foi um bamba do elite

Was a top player in high society

Um profissional do amor

A professional in love matters


(Bom malandro) acredite

(Good scoundrel) believe it

Mas depois se apaixonou

But then fell in love

Por alguém que não lhe quis

With someone who didn't want him

Concretizar o sonho de viver feliz

To fulfill the dream of living happily


Quis abdicar em hora ruim

Wanted to give up in bad times

Vive a lamentar, a vida é assim

Lives to regret, that's life

Tinha tudo o que um homem quer

Had everything a man wants

Mas apareceu a tal mulher

But then came that woman

E ninguém mais leva fé

And no one believes anymore

Que o Zé foi um bom vivant

That Zé was a bon vivant

Pois hoje é só Zé Mané o Don Juan

Because today he's just Zé Mané, not Don Juan
