Lyrics & Translation

[Portuguese]

[English]

Quis se recriar

Wanted to recreate

Quis fantasiar

Wanted to fantasize

No quarto de vestir

In the dressing room

Despiu-se do pudor

Undressed from modesty

Quis se adornar

Wanted to adorn himself

Quis se enfeitar

Wanted to embellish

Vestido e salto

Dress and heels

Enfim, pra si tomou

Finally, took it for himself

Se transformou

He transformed

Se arriscou

He took a risk

Reinventou

Reinvented

E gostou

And liked it

Ele se transformou

He transformed

Precisou correr

Needed to run

Uma vida pra entender

A lifetime to understand

Que ele era assim

That he was like this

Um comum de dois

A common of two

E hoje vai sair

And today he will go out

Com a melhor lingerie

With the best lingerie

Não pra afrontar

Not to confront

Só quer se divertir

Just wants to have fun

Mas ele afrontou

But he confronted

Provocou

Provoked

Assombrou

Astonished

Incomodou

Bothered

E ele nem ligou

And he didn't even care

Se acabou

He ended up

E beijou

And kissed

E dançou

And danced

Ele aproveitou

He enjoyed it

...

...

Quando apontam aquele olhar

When they point that look

Ele sabe e deixa passar

He knows and lets it pass

O salto dói, ele sorri

The heels hurt, he smiles

Mais machucava ter que omitir

But it hurt more to have to omit

Prazer e dor de ser mulher

Pleasure and pain of being a woman

Por essa noite é o que ele quer

For this night, that's what he wants

Degusta bem, vê que valeu

Savors well, sees it was worth it

Ele se transformou

He transformed

Sua dama, ao seu lado

His lady, by his side

Amparando o motim

Supporting the riot

Juntos rolam pela noite

Together they roll through the night

Nunca dantes par assim

Never before like this

...

...

Se transformou

Transformed

Se arriscou

Took a risk

Reinventou

Reinvented

E gostou

And liked it

Ele se transformou

Se arriscou

Took a risk

Reinventou

Reinvented

E gostou

And liked it

...

...
