Ai Coração Lyrics in English MIMICAT

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Ai Coração by MIMICAT from Portuguese to English.
Verse 1
Oh heart
You don't leave me in peace
Verse 1
You don't give me rest
You leave me helpless
Verse 1
My head and throat are in a knot
That won't untie and even then you feel no pity
I feel dizzy
Worse every day
Verse 1
I no longer know things I knew by heart
My pulse has shot up to almost a thousand
I'm crazy, totally senile
My chest burning
Mouth dry, I don't even know
What to do with you
Love like this won't work for me
Because it feels like I'm not me anymore
Oh heart
Oh heart
Tell me then if you're mine
Hours pass and sleep won't come
I hear the owls and the neighbors too
My sanity left and stayed over there
Somebody pull me out of this state I'm in
The doctor says there's nothing to do
Hopeless case, I saw him write it down
I'm lost, wandering in another dimension
I'm totally a big mess
My chest burning
Mouth dry, I don't even know
What to do with you
Love like this won't work for me
Because it feels like I'm not me anymore
Oh heart
Oh heart
Oh heart
Tell me then if you're mine
My chest burning
Mouth dry, I don't even know
What to do with you
Love like this won't work for me
Because it feels like I'm not me anymore
Oh heart
Oh heart
Oh heart
Oh heart
Tell me then if you're mine

SONG MEANING

Mimicat’s “Ai Coração” is a playful, cabaret-flavoured lament in which the singer chats directly with her own runaway heart. From the first sigh of “Ai, coração!” she paints a comic yet relatable scene: her pulse is racing, her head and throat are tied in knots, and even the doctor throws up his hands. Love has turned her into a dizzy, sleepless mess, and the neighborhood owls and nosy neighbors are the only witnesses to her late-night suffering.

Beneath the tongue-in-cheek drama lies a universal confession: unreturned—or overwhelming—love can make us feel like we are no longer ourselves. Burning chest, dry mouth, forgotten memories… every symptom points to a heart that refuses to calm down. By repeatedly asking “Diz-me lá se és meu” (Tell me, are you still mine?) she begs for reassurance that the turmoil is worth it. The result is a spirited anthem for anyone who has ever pleaded with their own heart to behave, all wrapped in Mimicat’s signature retro-pop flair.
