Full lyrics

Acauã foi-se embora

Para nunca mais voltar

Deu saudade dos seus filhinho, Acauã

E começou a chorar


Eu também choro, Acauã

Eu já me vou, Acauã

Saudade, Acauã

De Amor


Se eu soubesse quem tu eras

Quem tu haverás de ser

Não dava meu coração, Acauã

Para agora eu padecer


Se meus olhos lhe incomodam

Quando estou na tua frente

Eu prometo arrancá-los, Acauã

Para amar-te cegamente


De longe eu te trago perto

Em vista dos olhos meus

Dentro do meu peito

Eu trago, Acauã

Um lindo retrato teu


Dentro do meu peito

Eu trago, Acauã

Um lindo retrato teu


Cabelos preto anelado

Ainda ontem eu "arreparei"

Se eu "arreparasse" há mais tempo, Acauã

Não amava a quem amei

Translation

Acauã went away

To never return

His little children missed him, Acauã

And he began to cry


I also cry, Acauã

I'm leaving too, Acauã

Missing you, Acauã

Of Love


If I knew who you were

Who you will be

I wouldn't give my heart, Acauã

So that now I suffer


If my eyes bother you

When I'm in front of you

I promise to tear them out, Acauã

To love you blindly


From afar I bring you near

Within sight of my eyes

Inside my chest

I carry, Acauã

A beautiful portrait of you


Inside my chest

I carry, Acauã

A beautiful portrait of you


Black curly hair

Just yesterday I "noticed"

If I had "noticed" longer ago, Acauã

I wouldn't have loved the one I loved
