Full lyrics
Eu só queria que meu bem chegasse
Pra alegrar meu triste coração
Essa tristeza eu mandava embora
Jogava fora esta solidão
Mais o inferno onde existe céu
E atormenta minha vida assim
Triste coirana que roi sem parar
Faz a tristeza se vingar de mim
Translation
I just wanted my love to arrive
To cheer up my sad heart
I would send this sadness away
Throw away this loneliness
But hell is where heaven exists
And torments my life like this
Sad coirana that gnaws without stopping
Makes sadness take revenge on me
