Vem
Comes
Eu vou pousar a mão no teu quadril
I'm going to put my hand on your hip
Multiplicar-te os pés por muitos mil
Multiply your feet by many thousand
Fita o céu
Ribbon the sky
Roda
Wheel
A dor
Pain
Define nossa vida toda
Defines our whole lives
Mas estes passos lançam moda
But these steps launch fashion
E dirão ao mundo por onde ir
And they'll tell the world where to go
Ás vezes tu te voltas para mim
Sometimes you turn to me
Na dança, sem te dares conta enfim
In the dance, without even counting
Que também
That too
Amas
Love
Mas
But
Somos apenas dois mulatos
We're just two mulattos
Fazendo poses nos retratos
Posing in pictures
Que a luz imprimiu de nós
That the light printed from us
Se desbotássemos, outros revelar-nos-íamos no carnaval
If we faded, others would reveal ourselves at carnival
Roubemo-nos ao deus tempo e nos demos de graça 'a beleza total, vem
We stole from god time and gave ourselves free 'total beauty, come
Nós
We
Cartão postal com touros em madri
Postcard with bulls in madrid
O corcovado e o redentor daqui
The corcovado and the redeemer here
Salvador
Savior
Roma
Rome
Amor
Love
Onde quer que estejamos juntos
Wherever we are together
Multiplicar-se-ão assuntos de mãos e pés
Subjects of hands and feet will multiply
E desvãos do ser
And desvãos of being
