Pedra Falsa Lyrics Translation in English
Roberto RibeiroPortuguese Lyrics
English Translation
Amar como eu te amei, ninguém
To love like I loved you, no one
Mas foi só provar do teu veneno
But as soon as I tasted your poison
Eu fiquei largado no sereno
I was left abandoned in the dew
Aí me transformei
That's when I transformed
Já sei gostar de mim também
Now I know how to love myself as well
Chorar como eu chorei, ninguém
To cry like I cried, no one
Mas chorar foi meu contra-veneno
But crying was my counter-poison
Pois depois do meu pranto moreno
Because after my dark weeping
Eu me purifiquei
I purified myself
E agora eu já me sinto bem
And now I feel good
Em teus braços fui brinquedo
In your arms, I was a toy
Feito pedra falsa, furta-cor
Like false stone, iridescent
No sereno eu vi que era um rochedo
In the dew, I saw that it was a rock
Jóia de botar no dedo
A jewel to put on the finger
Gema de minerador
Miner's gem
Venha pro clarão da lua
Come to the moonlight
Vamos ver quem tem real valor
Let's see who has real value
Quem for o brilhante continua
Whoever is brilliant continues
E quem for pedra da rua
And whoever is a street stone
Vira anel de mercador
Becomes a merchant's ring
Chorar ....
Crying ....
