No dia em que eu vim-me embora
The day I left
Minha mãe chorava em ai
My mother was crying in ai
Minha irmã chorava em ui
My sister cried in ui
E eu nem olhava pra trás
And I didn't even look back
No dia que eu vim-me embora
The day I left
Não teve nada de mais
There was nothing too much
Mala de couro forrada com pano forte brim cáqui
Leather suitcase lined with strong khaki denim cloth
Minha vó já quase morta
My grandmother is almost dead
Minha mãe até a porta
My mother to the door
Minha irmã até a rua
My sister up to the street
E até o porto meu pai
And to the port my father
O qual não disse palavra durante todo o caminho
Who didn't say a word all the way
E quando eu me vi sozinho
And when I found myself alone
Vi que não entendia nada
I saw that I didn't understand anything
Nem de pro que eu ia indo
Not even what I was going to
Nem dos sonhos que eu sonhava
Not even the dreams I dreamed
Senti apenas que a mala de couro que eu carregava
I just felt like the leather suitcase I was carrying
Embora estando forrada
Although it is lined
Fedia, cheirava mal
It smelled, it smelled bad
Afora isto ia indo, atravessando, seguindo
Outside of that it was going, crossing, following
Nem chorando nem sorrindo
Neither crying nor smiling
Sozinho pra Capital
Alone to the Capital
Nem chorando nem sorrindo
Neither crying nor smiling
Sozinho pra Capital
Alone to the Capital
Sozinho pra Capital
Alone to the Capital
Sozinho pra Capital
Alone to the Capital
Sozinho pra Capital
Alone to the Capital
