Voce E Minha Lyrics in English Caetano Veloso
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Voce E Minha by Caetano Veloso from Portuguese to English.
Fonte de mel nos olhos de gueixa
Source of honey in geisha eyes
Kabuki, máscara
Kabuki, mask
Choque entre o azul
Clash between the blue
E o cacho de acácias
And the cluster of acacias
Luz das acácias
Light of the acacias
Você é mãe do sol
You are mother of the sun
A sua coisa é toda tão certa
Everything about you is so right
Beleza esperta
Clever beauty
Você me deixa a rua deserta
You make the street deserted for me
Quando atravessa
When you cross
E não olha pra trás
And don't look back
Linda e sabe viver
Beautiful and knows how to live
Você me faz feliz
You make me happy
Esta canção é só pra dizer
This song is just to say
E diz
And says
Você é linda, mais que demais
You are beautiful, beyond amazing
Você é linda, sim
You are beautiful, yes
Onda do mar do amor
Wave of the sea of love
Que bateu em mim
That hit me
Você é forte, dentes e músculos
You are strong, teeth and muscles
Peitos e lábios
Breasts and lips
Você é forte, letras e músicas
You are strong, lyrics and music
Todas as músicas
All the songs
Que ainda hei de ouvir
That I'm yet to hear
No abaeté, areias e estrelas
In Abaeté, sands and stars
Não são mais belas
Are not more beautiful
Do que você
Than you
Mulher das estrelas
Woman of the stars
Mina de estrelas
Star mine
Diga o que você quer
Say what you want
Você é linda e sabe viver
You are beautiful and know how to live
Você me faz feliz
You make me happy
Esta canção é só pra dizer
This song is just to say
E diz
And says
Você é linda
You are beautiful
Mais que demais
Beyond amazing
Você é linda sim
You are beautiful, yes
Onda do mar do amor
Wave of the sea of love
Que bateu em mim
That hit me
Gosto de ver você no seu ritmo
I like to see you in your rhythm
Dona do carnaval
Queen of carnival
Gosto de ter
I like to have
Sentir seu estilo
To feel your style
Ir no seu íntimo
To go into your intimacy
Nunca me faça mal
Never hurt me
Linda, mais que demais
Beautiful, beyond amazing
Você é linda, sim
You are beautiful, yes
Onda do mar do amor
Wave of the sea of love
Que bateu em mim
That hit me
Você é linda e sabe viver
You are beautiful and know how to live
Você me faz feliz
You make me happy
Esta canção é só pra dizer
This song is just to say
E diz

gueixa — geisha
Gueixa is the Portuguese word for "geisha", a traditional Japanese entertainer. It's an exotic and visually rich word that immediately sparks curiosity due to its cultural origins.
In the song, Caetano Veloso uses "Fonte de mel nos olhos de gueixa" (Fountain of honey in the eyes of a geisha) to paint a vivid and sensual image of the beloved's captivating eyes, comparing their beauty and allure to the refined artistry of a geisha. This unique comparison makes the word particularly memorable and enticing.
