Pra mim
For me
Basta um dia
Just one day
Não mais que um dia
No more than a day
Um meio dia
A half day
Me dá
Give me
Só um dia
Just one day
E eu faço desatar
And I make it untie
A minha fantasia
My fantasy
Só um
Just one
Belo dia
Beautiful day
Pois se jura, se esconjura
Because if you swear, you hide
Se ama e se tortura
If you love and torture yourself
Se tritura, se atura e se cura
Grind, put up and heal
A dor
The pain
Na orgia
In the orgy
Da luz do dia
From the light of day
É só
It's just
O que eu pedia
What I asked for
Um dia pra aplacar
A day to appease
Minha agonia
My agony
Toda a sangria
All the blood
Todo o veneno
All the poison
De um pequeno dia
Of a small day
Só um
Just one
Santo dia
Holy day
Pois se beija, se maltrata
Because you kiss, you mistreat
Se come e se mata
Eat and kill yourself
Se arremata, se acata e se trata
If you do it, if you accept it and if you treat it
A dor
The pain
Na orgia
In the orgy
Na luz do dia
In the light of day
É só
It's just
O que eu pedia, viu
What I asked for, see
Um dia pra aplacar
A day to appease
Minha agonia
My agony
Toda a sangria
All the blood
Todo o veneno
All the poison
De um pequeno dia
Of a small day
