Virginia Lyrics in English Zé Felipe

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Virginia by Zé Felipe from Portuguese to English.
She showed up hurling a rock at the rearview mirror
Stuck a switchblade in the car tire
Saw me sitting in the bar with Carlinha
A friend of mine, she saw dirt where there wasn't
The more I asked her to chill
The madder she got
Hit me, hit me
My Uno Mille's got nothing to do with this
Hit me, hit me
Calm down, Virgínia, I'm not cheating on you
Hit me, hit me
My Uno Mille's got nothing to do with this
Hit me, hit me
Calm down, Virgínia, I'm not cheating on you
Saw me sitting in the bar with Carlinha
A friend of mine, she saw dirt where there wasn't
The more I asked her to chill
The madder she got
Hit me, hit me
My Uno Mille's got nothing to do with this
Hit me, hit me
Calm down, Virgínia, I'm not cheating on you
Hit me, hit me
My Uno Mille's got nothing to do with this
Hit me, hit me
Calm down, Virgínia, I'm not cheating on you
When I kissed you, I told you right then
The love of my life is standing in front of me now
I'm yours, all yours
I'm with you till the end
Leave the car alone and do this
Hit me, hit me

SONG MEANING

“Virginia” is a playful Brazilian sertanejo hit where Zé Felipe turns a jealous-lover meltdown into a comic scene. The narrator is caught at a bar with his friend Carlinha, and Virginia instantly imagines the worst. In her fury she smashes his car mirror and slashes a tire, yet he keeps pleading: “Calma, Virginia, eu não tô te traindo” (Calm down, Virginia, I’m not cheating on you). The repeated chorus “Bate em mim” (Hit me) highlights his mix of desperation and humor as he begs her to leave his poor Uno Mille alone.

Beneath the lighthearted melody, the song pokes fun at the explosive side of love. It paints a picture of passionate relationships in which emotions run high, misunderstandings spark chaos, but devotion survives. By the end he reassures Virginia that she is “o amor da minha vida” (the love of my life) and invites her to channel that fiery energy into affection instead of car damage. The result is a catchy, tongue-in-cheek lesson on jealousy, trust, and the lengths someone will go to prove their loyalty.
