Culpa Do Amor Lyrics in English Mallu Magalhães

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Culpa Do Amor by Mallu Magalhães from Portuguese to English.
Verse 1
We fight without meaning to
And time drags on
You won't convince me
And I won't even try
A few minutes of distress
And we look at each other awkwardly
Laugh at everything that's passed
And give a kiss
It's all the art of love
Fights for hire
It's all love's fault
That keeps playing its tricks
In the sky's so pretty blue
Verse 2
We run without knowing
That time can even stop
Not everything that strays from the plans
Goes wrong
In the life we've got to live
In the things we can have
Beyond any mistake
The lovers
It's all the art of love
Fights for hire
It's all love's fault
That keeps playing its tricks
In the sky's so pretty blue
It's all the art of love
Fights for hire
It's all love's fault
That keeps playing its tricks
In the sky's so pretty blue

SONG MEANING

"Culpa Do Amor" unfolds the charming chaos of a relationship where tiny storms quickly turn into sunshine. Mallu Magalhães sings about those spur-of-the-moment arguments that feel endless, only to melt away with a shy glance, shared laughter, and a sweet kiss. In her lyrics, every quarrel is a playful “briga de aluguel” (a fight you temporarily rent), and every reconciliation is proof that love itself is the mastermind pulling the strings.

The song reminds us that love loves to tease: it pauses time, flips plans upside down, yet paints the sky an even brighter blue when the dust settles. Rather than fearing the unexpected, Mallu invites us to see misunderstandings as part of love’s artwork. After all, if the heart is the artist, a few messy brushstrokes only make the final picture more vivid and unforgettable.
