Mulher Nova, Bonita e Carinhosa Faz O Homem Gemer Sem Sentir Dor [English translation]

In a war of Greeks and Trojans

For Helen1, wife of Menelaus2

History says that a wooden horse3

Put an end in a ten year war

Menelaus, the greatest Spartan

Defeated Paris4, the big seducer

Humiliating Hector5's family

In defense of the capricious honor

A young, pretty and loving woman

Makes a man sigh without pain

Alexander6, such an inhuman person

Founder of famous Alexandria7

Conquered the whole Greece and destroyed

The Theban population almost in its entirety

The attractive beauty of Roxana8

Tamed the biggest conqueror

And after winning over her, the winner

Surrendered to the more than gorgeous pagan

A young, pretty and loving woman

Makes a man sigh without pain

Women have two diamonds in their faces

Two faithful conductors of her destiny

Those who don't love the smile of a woman

Doesn't know the poetry of Cervantes9

The bravery of the Great Navigators

Facing the tempest in its peak

If it weren't for the delicate female flower

History would be lying

A young, pretty and loving woman

Makes a man sigh without pain

Virgulino Ferreira, also known as Lampião10

Bandit of the Northeastern jungles

Not fearing danger or ruins

Was the king of Cangaço in the backlands

But one day he felt in his heart

The attractive spell of love

The brown skinned lady11 from Alagoas12

Was able to tame a dangerous beast

A young, pretty and loving woman

Makes a man sigh without pain

A young, pretty and loving woman

Makes a man sigh without pain

A young, pretty and loving woman

Makes a man sigh without pain
