Full lyrics
Mas que surpresa boa!
Te encontrar na rua
Cruzou o meu caminho
Nem sei se foi à toa
Lembrei daquele dia
Que vi você chorar
Até tentei
Mas me faltou coragem pra falar:
"por causa do amor em ti
Foi qu'eu vi nascer
A mais linda flor que alguém há de admirar
Mas se ele brincar contigo
Um jogo de mal-me-quer
Me chama que eu vou
E recolho tuas pétalas"
Mas que surpresa boa!
Te encontrar na rua
Cruzou o meu caminho
Nem sei se foi à toa
Lembrei daquele dia
Que vi você chorar
Até tentei
Mas me faltou coragem pra falar:
"por causa do amor em ti
Foi qu'eu vi nascer
A mais linda flor que alguém há de admirar
Mas se ele brincar contigo
Um jogo de mal-me-quer
Me chama que eu vou
E recolho tuas pétalas
Me chama que eu vou
E recolho tuas pétalas
Me chama que eu vou
E recolho tuas pétalas..."
Translation
What a pleasant surprise!
To find you on the street
You crossed my path
I don't even know if it was by chance
I remembered that day
When I saw you cry
I even tried
But I lacked the courage to speak:
"because of the love in you
It was that I saw bloom
The most beautiful flower anyone will admire
But if he plays with you
A game of love-me-not
Call me and I'll go
And gather your petals"
What a pleasant surprise!
To find you on the street
You crossed my path
I don't even know if it was by chance
I remembered that day
When I saw you cry
I even tried
But I lacked the courage to speak:
"because of the love in you
It was that I saw bloom
The most beautiful flower anyone will admire
But if he plays with you
A game of love-me-not
Call me and I'll go
And gather your petals
Call me and I'll go
And gather your petals
Call me and I'll go
And gather your petals..."
