Garganta Lyrics in English Ana Carolina

Home / Lyrics Translation / Ana Carolina / Garganta

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Garganta by Ana Carolina from Portuguese to English.

My throat feels weird

When I don't see you

I get a craving

Crazy to scream

My throat scratches

The paint and the tiles

From your room, from the kitchen

From the living room

My throat scratches

The paint and the tiles

From your room, from the kitchen

From the living room

I come at dawn

To disturb your sleep

Like a stray dog

I start barking

I cross the pillow

I turn you inside out

I drive your head crazy

I make it spin

I cross the pillow

I turn you inside out

I drive your head crazy

I make it spin

I know I'm no saint

Sometimes I go shameless

Sometimes I act sweet

To win you over

But I'm no prude

I grew up on the street

And I won't change my stance

Just to please you

But I'm no prude

I grew up on the street

And I won't change my stance

Just to please you

I ended up in this city

By force of circumstance

I've been like this since I was a kid

I grew up kinda homeless

I learned to get by alone

And if I'm giving you rope

It's so later I can

I learned to get by alone

And if I'm giving you rope

It's so later I can leave you

I learned to get by alone

And if I'm giving you rope

It's so later I can leave you

I learned to get by alone

And if I'm giving you rope

It's so later I can

My throat feels weird

I learned to get by alone

And if I'm giving you rope

It's so later I can leave you

I learned to get by alone

And if I'm giving you rope

It's so later I can leave you

SONG MEANING

Garganta (which means throat in Portuguese) turns that simple body part into a megaphone for raw longing. When Ana Carolina can’t see her lover, her throat feels so strange that she wants to scream, as if her voice could claw through the paint and tiles of every room the two of them once shared. The lyrics paint her desire as a restless night-time invasion: she barges into her partner’s dreams like an ownerless dog, flips pillows, and spins their mind in circles.

Yet this is no fragile romantic. The singer proudly admits she is not a saint, grew up on the streets, and refuses to soften her edges just to please someone else. She can be sweet or bold whenever it suits her, but the rope she offers is only temporary. Seduction and abandonment walk hand in hand, making the song an anthem of fierce independence wrapped in smoky, bluesy vocals. In short, Garganta celebrates a love that is intense, impulsive, and completely on the singer’s own terms.
