Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Sorriso by Diogo Piçarra from Portuguese to English.

The smile on my face

Doesn't really show how I'm doing

Sometimes I put on the mask

And when the day ends

I forget who I am

Verse 1

Lie to my face

And say it's already over

Verse 1

Dressed in courage

But it's so much baggage

Verse 1

I don't even know where I'm going

Without you I won't make it

I know it's late to go back

But in the end you'll be there

Wake me when it's over

The smile on my face

Doesn't really show how I'm doing

Sometimes I put on the mask

And when the day ends

I forget who I am

Without you I won't make it

I know it's late to go back

But in the end you'll be there

Wake me when it's over

Verse 2

Try again

Or forget myself for good

Verse 2

I've tried to dodge it, but

Everything's aiming at my pierced chest

Verse 2

They're nails and spikes

Without you I won't make it

I know it's late to go back

But in the end you'll be there

Wake me when it's over

The smile on my face

Doesn't really show how I'm doing

Sometimes I put on the mask

And when the day ends

I forget who I am

Without you I won't make it

I know it's late to go back

But in the end you'll be there

Wake me when it's over

The smile on my face

Doesn't really show how I'm doing

Sometimes I put on the mask

And when the day ends

I forget who I am

SONG MEANING

“Sorriso” finds Portuguese pop star Diogo Piçarra lifting the curtain on the smile we all wear for the world. Behind the catchy melody lies a confession: the grin on his face is only a costume, hiding exhaustion and self-doubt. Each day he puts on that mask, and when night falls he can’t remember who he truly is – a feeling many listeners will recognize.

At the heart of the song is a desperate promise: “Eu sem ti não vou chegar” (without you I won’t make it). All the emotional bagagem he carries is too heavy to move alone, so he pleads for the person he loves to stay and “wake him up when it’s over.” The repeated chorus turns the track into an anthem of vulnerability and hope, reminding us that even the brightest smiles can conceal storms and that real strength often comes from leaning on someone else.
