Translation

Tive um sonho com você, amor

I had a dream with you, my love

Numa noite sem igual

In a night like no other

E me transformei num beija-flor

And I transformed into a hummingbird

Dentro de um roseiral

Inside a rose garden


Procurei pousar de flor em flor

I sought to perch from flower to flower

Numa ânsia infinda

In an endless eagerness

Para poder chegar a você

So that I could reach you

Que era a rosa mais linda

Who was the most beautiful rose


Ao beijar a sua corola assim

By kissing your corolla like this

Deu-se a transformação

The transformation occurred

Acordei do sonho, voltei a mim

I woke up from the dream, returned to myself

E beijei sua mão

And kissed your hand
