O Que Me Importa Lyrics in English Tim Maia
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song O Que Me Importa by Tim Maia from Portuguese to English.
O que me importa seu carinho agora
What does your affection matter to me now?
Se é muito tarde para amar você?
If it's too late to love you?
O que me importa se você me adora
What do I care if you adore me?
Se já não há razão pra lhe querer?
If there's no reason left to want you?
O que me importa ver você sofrendo assim
What do I care about seeing you suffer like this
Se quando eu lhe quis você nem mesmo soube dar
If when I wanted you, you didn't even know how to give
Amor?
Love?
O que me importa ver você chorando
What do I care about seeing you cry
Se tantas vezes eu chorei também?
If I cried so many times too?
O que me importa sua voz chamando
What do I care about your voice calling
Se pra você jamais eu fui alguém?
If I was never anyone to you?
O que me importa essa tristeza em seu olhar
What do I care about this sadness in your eyes
Se o meu olhar tem mais tristezas pra chorar
If my eyes have more sadness to cry for
Que o seu?
Than yours?
O que me importa ver você tão triste
What do I care about seeing you so sad
Se triste fui e você nem ligou?
If I was sad and you didn't even care?
O que me importa o seu carinho agora
What does your affection matter to me now?
Se para mim a vida terminou?
If for me life has ended?
Terminou
It's over
Terminou
It's over

Did you like this lyrics translation?
carinho — affection
Carinho translates to "affection" or "tenderness". It's a beautiful and nuanced word that goes beyond a simple "love" (amor).
In Tim Maia's song, the narrator repeatedly asks, "O que me importa seu carinho agora?" (What does your affection matter to me now?). This highlights a sense of regret and lost opportunity, emphasizing that the affection offered now is too late, making the word particularly poignant in the context of the song's theme of unrequited or delayed love.
