Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

A Casa noturna se mantêm a noite em clima de festa

The nightclub maintains a festive atmosphere at night

De longe se ouve vários instrumentos de cordas e metais

From afar, you can hear various string and brass instruments

Bohemios bebendo cantando e dançando ao som da orquestra

Bohemians drinking, singing, and dancing to the orchestra's sound

Um som instridente que foi batizado de som de cristais

An insistent sound that was baptized as the sound of crystals


A casa noturna , boate falada lugar de má fama

The nightclub, a spoken-of nightclub, a place of bad reputation

De portas abertas durante a noite

With open doors during the night

Entra quem quiser

Anyone can enter

Porém essa noite sem que eu esperasse entrou oma dama

But this night, unexpectedly, a lady entered

Fiquei assustado , pois se tratava de minha mulher

I was scared because it was my wife


Ela se cansou de dormir sozinha esperando por mim

She got tired of sleeping alone, waiting for me

E essa noite resolveu dar fim á sua longa e maldita espera

And this night, she decided to put an end to her long and cursed wait

Ela não quis mais levar a vida de mulher honrada

She no longer wanted to lead the life of an honorable woman

Se na verdade não adiantou nada ser mulher direita conforme ela era

Indeed, it was of no use being a righteous woman as she was

Ela decidiu abandonar o papel de esposa para viver entre as mariposas

She decided to abandon the role of a wife to live among the moths

Que fazem ponto naquele local

Who gather at that place


A minha vida muito mais errante agora continua

My life, much more wayward now, continues

Transformei a esposa em mulher da rua

I turned the wife into a woman of the street

A mais nova dama do som de cristal

The newest lady of the crystal sound
