Já te falei

I already told you

Ouvi dizer por aí

Já gritei, telefonei, cantei por toda cidade

Pelo beco, pelo meio da Avenida Central,

Through the alley, through the middle of Central Avenue,

no jardim

Já divulguei

I've already spread the word

Anunciei por aí

Announced it around

Por e-mail, por correio veio toda a verdade

By email, by mail, the whole truth came

Já mandei no megafone

I've already sent it on the megaphone

pra toda gente escutar

for everyone to hear

Notícia que se espalha

News that spreads

Paira em qualquer lugar

Hovers anywhere

Li no outdoor, pus na canção,

I read it on the billboard, put it in the song,

deu no cinema

Que a vida vale a pena

That life is worth living

Na matinê, no botequim,

In the matinee, in the bar,

na madrugada

Vida que vale a pena

Já escutei

I've heard

E repeti por aí

And repeated around

Coloquei cartazes nos murais

Já berrei no microfone

I shouted on the microphone

a todo volume no ar

Palavra que se espalha

Pluma no vendaval

Feather in the whirlwind

Vi no gibi, foi por aí, li num poema
