Não Dá Ah Ah Lyrics in English Soraia Ramos

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Não Dá Ah Ah by Soraia Ramos from Portuguese to English.
Intro
Soraia Ramos, KlassziK
Verse 1
I tried to be the perfect woman for you
I even changed my routine for you
But I thought I'd be the mom
Of your kids, but no
You preferred the hottie with long hair
With a villa
And that flashy car from other guys, full of shine
But listen up, now you wanna come back to me
So what's going on
Yeah, it was an illusion
That doesn't work for me
I won't accept that disrespect
That doesn't work for me
I'm beautiful and I'm my own way
That doesn't work for me
No way
No way
Verse 2
Now that her mask has fallen
I'm important now
Look, I don't have diamonds
Or a shiny car either
You messed up because you're like that
The funniest thing is you chose the end
You lost a talented woman
You made the wrong choice
Serves you right
You're nothing but a gold-digger
You traded love for money
For money
But listen up
Now you wanna come back to me
So what's going on
Yeah, it was an illusion
That doesn't work for me
I won't accept that disrespect
That doesn't work for me
I'm beautiful and I'm my own way
That doesn't work for me
No way
No way
Next time, stop and think
Stop and think
Next time, stop and think
Stop and think
Yeah, it hurts
That doesn't work for me
I won't accept that disrespect
That doesn't work for me
I'm beautiful and I'm my own way
That doesn't work for me
No way
No way
Hm, it hurts, it hurts
This is for all women
Never let anyone take your shine
Cause we're beautiful, each in her own way
And that's how it is, otherwise the front door is the way out

SONG MEANING

“Não Dá Ah Ah” is Soraia Ramos’s lively declaration of self-worth. In the song, she looks back on a relationship where she bent over backward to be the “perfect woman,” even dreaming of raising a family with her partner. Instead of valuing her love and loyalty, he chased after someone flashier, drawn to long hair, a fancy house, and a shiny car. When that superficial dream crumbles and he comes running back, Soraia stands tall: Para mim não dá (“That doesn’t work for me”).

The track flips heartbreak into empowerment. Soraia reminds listeners that true value isn’t found in diamonds or status symbols, but in self-confidence and authenticity. Her repeated refrain is both a personal boundary and a rallying cry for women everywhere: never let anyone dim your sparkle. If respect isn’t on offer, the door is always open—for them to leave!
