Com Açúcar, com Afeto [English translation]
Com Açúcar, com Afeto [English translation]
With sugar, with affection, I made your favorite dessert
To see if you stay at home
With your nicest suit, you go out, I don't believe it
When you say you won't be late
You say you are a worker, that you go out looking for a wage
To support me
On the way to the repair shop, there's a bar at every corner
For you to celebrate
I know someone will sit close to you, will start to talk
Talking about football/soccer
And you'll look at the girls at the beach
Tanned by the sun
The night comes and another glass too, 'allegro ma non troppo'
You will want to sing
At the percussion a new friend will play an old samba
For you to recall
When the night tires you at last, you come back like a kid
To cry and ask for my forgiveness
You tell me not to be mad, you say you will change
To please my heart
And seeing you like this, tired, shabby and mistreated
Still wanted to upset me
I soon reheat your plate, give a kiss on your portrait
And spread my arms to welcome you
