Minha namorada tem segredos
My girlfriend has secrets
Tem nos olhos mil brinquedos
In her eyes, a thousand toys
De magoar o meu amor
That hurt my love
Minha namorada, muito amada
My girlfriend, so loved
Não entende quase nada
Doesn't understand nearly anything
Nunca vem de madrugada
Never comes at dawn
Procurar por onde estou
To search for where I am
É preciso, ó doce namorada
It's necessary, oh sweet girlfriend
Seguirmos firmes na estrada
To stay strong on the road
Que leva nenhuma dor
That leads to no pain
Minha doce e triste namorada
My sweet and sorrowful girlfriend
Minha amada, idolatrada
My beloved, idolized
Salve, salve o nosso amor
Hail, hail our love
Minha namorada, muito amada
My girlfriend, so loved
Não entende quase nada
Doesn't understand almost anything
Nunca vem de madrugada
Never comes at dawn
Procurar por onde estou
To search for where I am
É preciso, ó doce namorada
It's necessary, oh sweet girlfriend
Seguirmos firmes na estrada
To stay strong on the road
Que leva nenhuma dor
That leads to no pain
Minha doce e triste namorada
My sweet and sorrowful girlfriend
Minha amada, idolatrada
My beloved, idolized
Salve, salve o nosso amor
Hail, hail our love
