Chegou, sorriu, venceu, depois chorou
She arrived, smiled, triumphed, then cried
Então fui eu quem consolou sua tristeza
So it was I who consoled your sadness
Na certeza de que o amor tem dessas fases más
In the certainty that love has these bad phases
E é bom para fazer as pazes, mas
And it's good for making amends, but
Depois fui eu quem dela precisou
Then it was I who needed her
E ela então me socorreu, e o nosso amor
And she then rescued me, and our love
Mostrou que veio pra ficar
Showed that it came to stay
Mais uma vez, por toda a vida
Once again, for all of life
Bom é mesmo amar em paz
It's truly good to love in peace
Brigas nunca mais
No more fights
