These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Dona desses traiçoeiros
Owner of these treacherous
Sonhos, sempre verdadeiros
Dreams, always true
Dona desses animais
Owner of these animals
Dona de seus ideais
Owner of her ideals
Pelas ruas onde andas
Through the streets where you walk
Onde mandas todos nós
Where you send us all
Somos sempre mensageiros
We are always messengers
Esperando tua voz
Waiting for your voice
Teus desejos, uma ordem
Your wishes, an order
Nada é nunca, nunca é não
Nothing is ever, never is no
Por que tens essa certeza
Why are you so sure
Dentro do teu coração
Inside your heart
Tan, tan, tan, batem na porta
Tan, tan, tan, knock on the door
Não precisa ver quem é
You don't need to see who it is
P'ra sentir a impaciência
P'ra feel impatience
Do teu pulso de mulher
From your woman's wrist
Um olhar me atira à cama
A look throws me to bed
Um beijo me faz amar
A kiss makes me love
Não levanto, não me escondo
I don't get up, I don't hide
Porque sei que és minha
Because I know you're mine
Dona
Owner
Dona desses traiçoeiros
Owner of these treacherous
Não há pedras em teu caminho
There are no stones in your way
Não há ondas no teu mar
There are no waves in your sea
Não há vento ou tempestade
There is no wind or storm
Que te impeçam de voar
That keep you from flying
Entre a cobra e o passarinho
Between the snake and the bird
Entre a pomba e o gavião
Between dove and hawk
Ou teu ódio ou teu carinho
Or your hate or your affection
Nos carregam pela mão
They carry us by the hand
É a mo'a da cantiga
It's the mo'a of the song
A mulher da criação
The woman of creation
Umas vezes nossa amiga
Sometimes our friend
Outras nossa perdição
Others our doom
O poder que nos levanta
The power that lifts us
A força que nos faz cair
The force that makes us fall
Qual de n'ss ainda não sabe
Which one of n'ss doesn't know yet
Que isso tudo te faz
That it all makes you
Dona, dona
Owner, owner
