Não consigo olhar no fundo dos seus olhos I can't look deep into your eyes 00:11
E enxergar as coisas que me deixam no ar, deixam no ar And see the things that leave me in the air, leave me in the air 00:15
As várias fases e estações que me levam com o vento The various phases and seasons that carry me with the wind 00:24
E o pensamento, bem devagar And the thought, slowly 00:28
Outra vez, eu tive que fugir Once again, I had to run away 00:35
Eu tive que correr pra não me entregar I had to run to not give in 00:40
As loucuras que me levam até você The craziness that takes me to you 00:46
Fazem esquecer que eu não posso chorar Makes me forget that I can't cry 00:52
00:58
Olhe bem no fundo dos meus olhos Look deep into my eyes 01:09
E sinta a emoção que nascerá quando você me olhar And feel the emotion that will arise when you look at me 01:12
O universo conspira a nosso favor The universe conspires in our favor 01:20
A consequência do destino é o amor The consequence of destiny is love 01:23
Pra sempre vou te amar Forever I will love you 01:26
Mas talvez você não entenda But maybe you won't understand 01:32
Essa coisa de fazer o mundo acreditar This thing of making the world believe 01:37

[Portuguese]
[English]
Não consigo olhar no fundo dos seus olhos
I can't look deep into your eyes
E enxergar as coisas que me deixam no ar, deixam no ar
And see the things that leave me in the air, leave me in the air
As várias fases e estações que me levam com o vento
The various phases and seasons that carry me with the wind
E o pensamento, bem devagar
And the thought, slowly
Outra vez, eu tive que fugir
Once again, I had to run away
Eu tive que correr pra não me entregar
I had to run to not give in
As loucuras que me levam até você
The craziness that takes me to you
Fazem esquecer que eu não posso chorar
Makes me forget that I can't cry
...
...
Olhe bem no fundo dos meus olhos
Look deep into my eyes
E sinta a emoção que nascerá quando você me olhar
And feel the emotion that will arise when you look at me
O universo conspira a nosso favor
The universe conspires in our favor
A consequência do destino é o amor
The consequence of destiny is love
Pra sempre vou te amar
Forever I will love you
Mas talvez você não entenda
But maybe you won't understand
Essa coisa de fazer o mundo acreditar
This thing of making the world believe
Que meu amor não será passageiro
That my love won't be fleeting
Te amarei de janeiro a janeiro
I will love you from January to January
Até o mundo acabar
Until the world ends
Até o mundo acabar
Until the world ends
Até o mundo acabar
Until the world ends
Até o mundo acabar
Until the world ends
Mas talvez você não entenda
But maybe you won't understand
Essa coisa de fazer o mundo acreditar
This thing of making the world believe
Que meu amor não será passageiro
That my love won't be fleeting
Te amarei de janeiro a janeiro
I will love you from January to January
Até o mundo acabar
Until the world ends
Até o mundo acabar
Until the world ends
Até o mundo acabar
Until the world ends
Até o mundo acabar
Until the world ends
De janeiro a janeiro
From January to January

Key Grammar Structures

  • Não consigo olhar no fundo dos seus olhos

    ➔ Verb Conjugation and Usage: 'Conseguir' + infinitive

    ➔ The verb "consigo" (first-person singular present of "conseguir") is followed by the infinitive "olhar", showing the speaker's inability to do something.

  • E enxergar as coisas que me deixam no ar, deixam no ar

    ➔ Relative Pronouns ('que') and Idiomatic Expressions

    "que" introduces a relative clause modifying "as coisas". "Deixar no ar" is an idiomatic expression meaning to leave someone in suspense or uncertainty. Repetition for emphasis.

  • Outra vez, eu tive que fugir

    ➔ Past Perfect Simple ('Tive que') indicating necessity in the past.

    "Tive que" is the past tense of "ter que" which means 'had to', indicating a past obligation or necessity. The "eu" is redundant but used for emphasis.

  • As loucuras que me levam até você

    ➔ Relative Pronoun 'que' (subject of 'levam')

    "que" acts as the subject of the verb "levam". It refers back to "as loucuras".

  • O universo conspira a nosso favor

    ➔ Verb Conjugation and Prepositional Phrase

    "Conspira" is the third-person singular present indicative of "conspirar". "A nosso favor" is a prepositional phrase meaning "in our favor".

  • A consequência do destino é o amor

    ➔ Subject-Verb Agreement and Sentence Structure

    ➔ The subject "A consequência do destino" is singular, so the verb "é" (is) agrees with it. The sentence follows a typical subject-verb-complement structure.

  • Pra sempre vou te amar

    ➔ Future Tense Construction ('Vou + infinitive')

    "Vou amar" is a periphrastic future construction, using the verb "ir" (to go) conjugated in the present tense + "amar" (to love) in the infinitive to express a future action: "I am going to love" or "I will love."

  • Mas talvez você não entenda

    ➔ Subjunctive Mood ('Entenda') after 'Talvez'

    "Talvez" (maybe) triggers the subjunctive mood in the following verb. "Entenda" is the 3rd person singular subjunctive form of "entender". This expresses doubt or uncertainty.

  • Que meu amor não será passageiro

    ➔ Future Simple ('será') and Subjunctive Clause

    "será" is the future simple form of "ser". The 'que' introduces a subordinate clause. Though technically indicative because it is asserted as fact, the prior clause 'Talvez você não entenda essa coisa de fazer o mundo acreditar' creates a sense of doubt that leans toward a conceptual subjunctive meaning.

  • Te amarei de janeiro a janeiro

    ➔ Future Tense ('Amarei') and Repetition

    "Amarei" is the first-person singular future indicative of "amar". The repetition emphasizes the enduring nature of the love.
