Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Fado do 112 by Carlos Do Carmo from Portuguese to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Sem capricho ou presunção
No whimsy or presumption
Nesta torre de papel
In this paper tower
Deita sete olhares de mel
Layseven honey looks
Em metade dum limão
In half a lemon
Na noite mais traiçoeira
On the most treacherous night
Ruím, medonha, brutal
Rruim, ghastly, brutal
Descontada a pasmaceira
Descontada a pasmaceira
Do inferno do normal
From the hell of normal
Se me vires a cara séria
If you see me as serious
Juíz togado ou em fralda
Judge togado or in diaper
A julgar faltas à balda
Judging fouls to balda
Num tribunal multimédia
In a multimedia court
E tomado o pensamento
And taken the thought
Por rombo, machado ou moca
By rombo, axe or moca
Pego no laser da moda
Caught in the fashion laser
Dou-te o meu assentimento
I give you my nod
Se me vires por fraqueza
If you see me out of weakness
Por perfídia ou aflição
By perfidy or affliction
Mergulhado na tristeza
Plunged into sadness
Com que se mói a razão
With what is grinding reason
E servi-la à sobremesa
And serve her to dessert
Das ceias da frustração
From the suppers of frustration
Assentado na baixeza
Seated in rascality
O programa da nação
The nation's program
Por favor, peço-te só
Please, I'm just asking you
Não te demores, vem logo
Don't be too long, come soon
Traz gasolina, põe fogo
Bring gasoline, set fire
Meu amor não tenhas dó
My love do not pity
