Aquela Dos 30 Lyrics in English Sandy

Home / Lyrics Translation / Sandy / Aquela Dos 30

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Aquela Dos 30 by Sandy from Portuguese to English.

Today is already Thursday

And I'm almost thirty

The playtime is over

And the rush to be everything I wanted and have increased in me

More time to exercise myself

I have teenage dreams but my back hurts

I'm young to be old

And old to be young

I have records from eighty-seven

And from two thousand and nine

I'm young to be old

And old to be young

Today is already Thursday

And not long ago I was almost twenty

So many plans I made

And I thought that in ten years I would live a life and not

Miss so much to see

I have teenage dreams but my back hurts

I'm young to be old

And old to be young

I have records from eighty-seven

And from two thousand and nine

I'm young to be old

And old to be young

Time is lacking and I miss it so much

I need more time

Than the life I don't have all ahead

And as big as the soul feels

I have teenage dreams but my back hurts

I'm young to be old

And old to be young

I have records from eighty-seven

And from two thousand and nine

I'm young to be old

And old to be young

I have teenage dreams but my back hurts

I'm young to be old

And old to be young

I value what the soul feels

But I've already enjoyed Bon Jovi

I'm young to be old

And old to be young

It's almost midnight

Almost Friday and I still lack so much

SONG MEANING

“Aquela dos 30” is Sandy’s playful yet honest confession about reaching the threshold of thirty and realizing that time is both a friend and a prankster. She sings of Thursday nights that turn into Fridays in the blink of an eye, teenage dreams that are still alive while her back starts to ache, and record collections that jump from 1987 to 2009. The song captures that bittersweet spot where you are too young to feel old, too old to feel young, juggling nostalgia for Bon Jovi with the urgency to become the person you always imagined.

Beneath the light-hearted references, the lyrics explore a universal rush for “extra time” – more hours to chase ambitions, more space to fit the size of your soul. Sandy reminds us that adulthood arrives quietly, carrying responsibilities but also the freedom to honor every version of ourselves. It is an anthem for anyone counting birthdays and dreams at the same time, celebrating the beautiful chaos of growing up without ever outgrowing hope.
