These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Não me fales dessa rua, a rua
Don't tell me about that street, the street
Que pra mim foi a mais linda ainda
Which for me was the most beautiful yet
Sim, prefiro que te cales
Yes, I'd rather you shut up
Fala-me das horas de hoje
Tell me about today's time
Do passado, não me fales!
Don't talk to me about the past!
Nesse tempo de quimera, eu era
In that chimera time, I was
Como simples açucena pequena
Like a simple little lily
Pura como a luz da lua era a menina bonita
Pure as the moonlight was the pretty girl
Do princípio ao fim da rua
From the beginning to the end of the street
De azul aos quadradinhos
From blue to squares
Fitas e laços de ir para a escola
Ribbons and bows from going to school
Hoje eu sigo outros caminhos
Today I follow other paths
Fiz dos teus braços uma gaiola
I made your arms a cage
Canções alegres que eu tinha
Happy songs I had
Que eram da moda, só sei cantar
They were fashionable, I only know how to sing
Olha a triste viuvinha que anda na roda
Look at the sad little widow who walks in the circle
E anda a chorar
And he's crying
Era irmã daquela ponte defronte
She was the sister of that bridge in front
Aprendi a tagarelar com ela
I learned to chat with her
Tudo na vida me dou
I give everything in life
Porque um dia tu passaste
Because one day you passed
Passaste ponte dissipou
You passed the bridge
Meu canteirinho de barro bizarro
My bizarre clay flowerbed
Posto lá pelo que fosse, quebrou-se
Put there for whatever reason, it broke
Passaste-me a chamar-te tua
You started calling me yours
Desde então não mais pisei
Since then I haven't set foot
Nas pedras daquela rua
On the stones of that street
