Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

Acordei já bem tarde

Woke up very late

A noite foi longa

The night was long

Sou o cinzeiro cheio

I'm the full ashtray

E a garrafa vazia

And the empty bottle

Procurei-te a meu lado

I looked for you by my side

Já estava com fome

I was already hungry

Só encontrei seu recado

Only found your note

E ela errou o meu nome

And she got my name wrong


Mas dos males o menor

But of evils the least

Mas dos males o menor

But of evils the least

Mas dos males o menor

But of evils the least

Ela saiu sem me roubar

She left without robbing me


Procurei meus sapatos

I looked for my shoes

Meu cigarro gitanes

My Gitanes cigarette

Nada havia em meu quarto

Nothing was in my room

Nem minha meias de lã

Not even my wool socks

Me lembrei desolado

I remembered, disheartened

Do recado na cama:

About the note on the bed:

"Nem só de pão vive um homem,

"Man does not live by bread alone,

também não uma dama"

neither does a lady"


Mas dos males o menor

But of evils the least

Mas dos males o menor

But of evils the least

Mas dos males o menor

But of evils the least

Ela saiu sem me matar

She left without killing me
