Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Carta Sobre A Mesa (Acústico) by Amado Batista from Portuguese to English.
Deixe-me renascer
Let me be reborn
Viver e crescer
Live and grow
E morrer em paz
And die in peace
A nossa estrada era tão larga
Our road was so wide
Já não existe mais
It no longer exists
Você era a vida
You were life
A esposa e amiga
The wife and friend
A minha namorada
My girlfriend
Você era na cama
You were in bed
Minha prenda e dama
My gift and lady
Antes daquela carta
Before that letter
Você me escreveu
You wrote to me
Deixou sobre a mesa
Left on the table
E desapareceu
And disappeared
Você me escreveu
You wrote to me
Deixou sobre a mesa
Left on the table
E desapareceu
And disappeared
Dizia a tal carta
That letter said
Que você não me amava
That you didn't love me
E tinha que partir
And had to leave
Ia embora com outro
You were leaving with someone else
E eu morrendo aos poucos
And I was slowly dying
Para você não ir
So you wouldn't go
Perdi toda calma
I lost all calmness
Procurei em minha alma
I searched in my soul
Algo para lhe esquecer
For something to forget you
Fiquei na loucura
I went crazy
Andei noites escuras
Walked through dark nights
Procurando por você
Searching for you
Mas foi tudo em vão
But it was all in vain
E o meu coração
And my heart
Sofrendo por você
Suffering for you
Mas foi tudo em vão
But it was all in vain
E o meu coração
And my heart
Sofrendo por você
Suffering for you
Já faz alguns anos
It's been a few years
E talvez por engano
And maybe by mistake
Você quer voltar
You want to come back
Não tens meu perdão
You don't have my forgiveness
Mas meu o coração
But my heart
Pede pra você ficar
Asks you to stay
Não vou resistir
I won't resist
Não quero insistir
I don't want to insist
Mas tenho que esquecer
But I have to forget
Esqueça meu drama
Forget my drama
Volte a nossa cama
Come back to our bed
E venha me aquecer
And come warm me up
E não vá mais embora
And don't leave anymore
Se você for alguém chora
If you leave, someone cries
E esse alguém sou eu
And that someone is me
E não vá mais embora
And don't leave anymore
Se você for alguém chora
If you leave, someone cries
E esse alguém sou eu
And that someone is me
E não vá mais embora
And don't leave anymore
Se você for alguém chora
If you leave, someone cries
E esse alguém sou eu
And that someone is me
E não vá mais embora
And don't leave anymore
Se você for alguém chora
If you leave, someone cries
E esse alguém sou eu
And that someone is me
E não vá mais embora
And don't leave anymore
Se você for alguém chora
If you leave, someone cries
