Full lyrics
Era fogo, era brasa
Que queimava quando eu chegava
De madrugada em casa
Meu bem me aperreava
Não deixava eu dormir
Dizendo precisava alguma coisa concluir
Seu não fugisse eu morria
Coisa ruim é não dormir
Eu falava benzinho
Procure compreender
Eu chego cansadinho
Por isso não pode ser
Discutir não adianta
Eu fugir pra não morrer
Translation
It was fire, it was embers
That burned when I arrived
At dawn at home
My darling would bother me
Wouldn't let me sleep
Saying she needed to conclude something
If I didn't run away, I would die
A bad thing is not sleeping
I would say, my dear
Try to understand
I arrive very tired
That's why it can't be
Arguing is no use
I run away so I don't die
