Chamada a Cobrar Lyrics Translation in English

Hoje o meu telefone tocou bem cedinho ao me despertar

Today my phone rang very early as I woke up

Notei que era interurbano pois alguém distante chamava à cobrar

I noticed it was a long-distance call because someone distant was calling collect

Ao falar de onde era mandei completar e notei sem demora

When asked where they were calling from, I had them connect, and I noticed without delay

A voz de um grande amor que há muito tempo tinha ido embora

The voice of a great love that had gone away long ago

Ela me falou chorando venha me buscar por Deus me ajude

She spoke to me crying, "Come and get me, may God help me"

Nos braços de quem não amo eu perdi a paz e a minha saúde

In the arms of someone I don't love, I lost my peace and my health

Meu coração magoado o nosso passado me fez recordar

My wounded heart made me recall our past

Quando a gente ama a distância encurta e a saudade expande

When people love, distance shortens, and longing expands

No primeiro voo para campo grande eu juro querida que vou te buscar

On the first flight to Campo Grande, I swear, dear, I will come to get you
