Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Um Certo Alguém by Lulu Santos from Portuguese to English.
Devo evitar teus olhos
I should avoid your eyes
Mas não pude reagir
But I couldn't react
Fico à vontade, então
So I feel at ease
Acho que é bobagem
I think it's nonsense
A mania de fingir
This habit of pretending
Negando a intenção
Denying the intention
Quando um certo alguém
When a certain someone
Cruzou o teu caminho
Crossed your path
E te mudou a direção
And changed your direction
Chego a ficar sem jeito
I even feel awkward
Mas não deixo de seguir
But I don't stop following
A tua aparição
Your appearance
Quando um certo alguém
When a certain someone
Desperta o sentimento
Awakens the feeling
É melhor não resistir
It's better not to resist
Me dê a mão, vem ser a minha estrela
Give me your hand, come be my star
Complicação tão fácil de entender
A complication so easy to understand
Vamos dançar, luzir a madrugada
Let's dance, light up the dawn
Inspiração pra tudo que eu viver
Inspiration for everything I'll live
