Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Velha E Louca by Mallu Magalhães from Portuguese to English.

You can talk, I don't care

Now, buddy, I'm onto something else

I'm getting old

I'm going crazy

You can let them know I'm not going

I'm on the road

I never know the time

I never know anything

Don't even try to steal my loose laugh with some advice

'Cause today I put on red lipstick

I've taken joy as a gift

In every corner I see the bright side

You can talk, I don't even care

Now I follow my nose

I breathe deep and sing

Even if a bit hoarse

You can talk, I don't mind

What I've got of crooked

I've got of happy

I go staggering

On shaky, loose legs

Don't even try to steal my loose laugh with some advice

'Cause today I put on red lipstick

I've taken joy as a gift

In every corner I see the bright side

Don't even try to steal my loose laugh with some advice

'Cause today I put on red lipstick

I've taken joy as a gift

In every corner I see the bright side

SONG MEANING

Velha e Louca is Mallu Magalhães’s playful anthem of self-acceptance and carefree rebellion. Singing in a breezy, almost conversational tone, she tells the world that she is growing “old and crazy” – and she loves it. The lyrics paint the picture of a wanderer who is always on the road, never checking the time, and never letting anyone steal her easy laugh. Even when friends try to give advice, she brushes it off with a swipe of bright red lipstick and keeps focusing on the bright side of every corner she visits.

Rather than fearing age or imperfection, Mallu celebrates them as badges of freedom. She follows her own nose, sings even when her voice is hoarse, and proudly balances wobbly legs with a heart full of joy. The song’s message is clear: embrace your quirks, ignore the naysayers, and find happiness in the simple act of being yourself.
