Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Sem Fantasia by Chico Buarque from Portuguese to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Vem, meu menino vadio
Come, my stray boy
Vem, sem mentir pra você
Come, without lying to you
Vem, mas vem sem fantasia
Come, but come without a costume
Que da noite pro dia
That overnight
Você não vai crescer
You won't grow
Vem, por favor não evites
Come, please don't avoid
Meu amor, meus convites
My love, my invitations
Minha dor, meus apelos
My pain, my pleas
Vou te envolver nos cabelos
I'll wrap you in my hair
Vem perder-te em meus braços
Come lose yourself in my arms
Pelo amor de Deus
For the love of God
Vem que eu te quero fraco
Come, I want you weak
Vem que eu te quero tolo
Come, I want you fool
Vem que eu te quero todo meu
Come, I want you all mine
Eu quero te dizer
I want to tell you
Que o instante de te ver
May the moment of seeing you
Custou tanto penar
It took so much pain
Não vou me arrepender
I won't regret
Só vim te convencer
I just came to convince you
Que eu vim pra não morrer
That I came not to die
De tanto te esperar
From waiting for you so much
Eu quero te contar
I want to tell you
Das chuvas que apanhei
From the rains I caught
Das noites que varei
Of the nights I spent
No escuro a te buscar
In the dark looking for you
Eu quero te mostrar
I want to show you
As marcas que ganhei
The marks I earned
Nas lutas contra o rei
In the fights against the king
Nas discussões com Deus
In discussions with God
E agora que cheguei
And now that I've arrived
Eu quero a recompensa
I want the reward
Eu quero a prenda imensa
I want the huge gift
Dos carinhos teus
Of your affection
