Lisboa também tem um namorado
Lisbon also has a boyfriend
E também tem ciúmes, como nós
And he's jealous, too, like us
Lisboa, quando sofre canta o fado
Lisbon, when he suffers sings fado
Com um soluço triste em sua voz
With a sad hiccup in his voice
Lisboa é namorada delicada
Lisbon is delicate girlfriend
Vaidosa e orgulhosa de assim ser
Vanity and proud to be
Lisboa fica às vezes amuada
Lisbon is sometimes pouted
Se o seu amor, amor não lhe oferecer
If your love, love does not offer you
Chama-lhe marinheiro, fala dele na rua
Call him a sailor, talk about him on the street
E sente ciúme dos olhos da lua
And you're jealous of the eyes of the moon
Chama-lhe marinheiro sem rumo nem rota
Call it a sailor without direction or route
Sempre atrás das asas de alguma gaivota
Always behind the wings of some seagull
Ele numa onda atira-lhe um beijo
He in a wave throws a kiss at him
E assim namoram, lisboa e o tejo
And so they date, lisbon and the tagus
Lisboa tem arrufos com o namoro
Lisbon has arrufos with dating
Se o vê fazer olhinhos às estrelas
If you see him stare at the stars
E então vai mirá-lo ao miradouro
And then you're going to send him to the viewpoint
Que não vá o diabo tecê-las
Let the devil not weave them
Lisboa, quando desce uma colina
Lisbon, when you go down a hill
P'ra namorar com ele toda se enfeita
P'ra dating him all adorns himself
Lisboa veste saia de varina
Lisbon wears varina skirt
Para ouvir os piropos que ele deita
To hear the pyropos he lays
Chama-lhe marinheiro, fala dele na rua
Call him a sailor, talk about him on the street
E sente ciúme dos olhos da lua
And you're jealous of the eyes of the moon
Chama-lhe marinheiro sem rumo nem rota
Call it a sailor without direction or route
Sempre atrás das asas de alguma gaivota
Always behind the wings of some seagull
Ele numa onda atira-lhe um beijo
He in a wave throws a kiss at him
E assim namoram, lisboa e o tejo
And so they date, lisbon and the tagus
Chama-lhe marinheiro, fala dele na rua
Call him a sailor, talk about him on the street
E sente ciúme dos olhos da lua
And you're jealous of the eyes of the moon
Chama-lhe marinheiro sem rumo nem rota
Call it a sailor without direction or route
Sempre atrás das asas de alguma gaivota
Always behind the wings of some seagull
Ele numa onda atira-lhe um beijo
He in a wave throws a kiss at him
E assim namoram, lisboa e o tejo
And so they date, lisbon and the tagus
