These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
E nada como um tempo após um contratempo
And nothing like time after a setback
Pro meu coração
For my heart
E não vale a pena ficar, apenas ficar
And it's not worth staying, just staying
Chorando, resmungando, até quando, não, não, não
Crying, grumbling, until when, no, no, no
E como já dizia Jorge Maravilha
And as Jorge Maravilha said
Prenhe de razão
Pregnant with reason
Mais vale uma filha na mão
Better to have a daughter in your hand
Do que dois pais voando
Than two parents flying
Você não gosta de mim, mas sua filha gosta
You don't like me, but your daughter does
Você não gosta de mim, mas sua filha gosta
You don't like me, but your daughter does
Ela gosta do tango, do dengo
She likes tango, dengo
Do mengo, domingo e de cócega
Mengo, Sunday and tickling
Ela pega e me pisca, belisca, petisca
She takes it and winks, pinches, snacks
Me arrisca e me enrosca
Take a risk and screw me
Você não gosta de mim, mas sua filha gosta
You don't like me, but your daughter does
Você não gosta de mim, mas sua filha gosta
You don't like me, but your daughter does
E nada como um dia após o outro dia
And nothing like one day after another day
Pro meu coração
For my heart
E não vale a pena ficar, apenas ficar
And it's not worth staying, just staying
Chorando, resmungando até quando, não, não, não
Crying, grumbling until when, no, no, no
E como já dizia Jorge Maravilha
And as Jorge Maravilha said
Prenhe de razão
Pregnant with reason
Mais vale uma filha na mão do que dois pais sobrevoando
A daughter in hand is better than two fathers flying overhead
