[English]

Quando o nosso filho crescer

When our child grows up

Eu vou-lhe dizer

I'll tell him

Que te conheci num dia de sol

That I met you on a sunny day

Que o teu olhar me prendeu

That your look caught me

E eu vi o céu

And I saw the sky

E tudo o que estava ao meu redor

And everything around me

Que pegaste na minha mão

That you took my hand

Naquele fim de verão

That late summer evening

E me levaste a jantar

And you took me out to dinner

Ficaste com o meu coração

You kept my heart

E como numa canção

And like in a song

Fizeste-me corar

You made me blush

Ali

There

Eu soube que era amor para a vida toda

I knew it was love for a lifetime

Que era contigo a minha vida toda

That with you, my whole life

Que era um amor para a vida toda

That this is a love for a lifetime

...

...

Ali

There

Eu soube que era amor para a vida toda

I knew it was love for a lifetime

Que era contigo a minha vida toda

That with you, my whole life

Que era um amor para a vida toda

That this is a love for a lifetime

Quando ele ficar maior

When he grows older

E quiser saber melhor

And wants to learn more

Como é que veio ao mundo

About how it all began

Eu vou lhe dizer com amor

I'll tell him with love

Que sonhei ao pormenor

That I dreamed in detail

E que era o meu desejo profundo

And that was my deepest wish

Que tinhas os olhos em água

That your eyes were full of water

Quando cheguei a casa

When I got home

E te dei a boa nova

And I gave you the good news

E o que já era bom ganhou asas

And what was already good took wings

E eu soube de caras

And I knew right away

Que era pra vida toda

That it was for a lifetime

Ali

There

Dissemos que era amor para a vida toda

We said it was love for a lifetime

Que era contigo a minha vida toda

That with you, my whole life

Que era um amor para a vida toda

That this is a love for a lifetime

Ali

There

Dissemos que era amor para a vida toda

We said it was love for a lifetime

Que era contigo a minha vida toda

That with you, my whole life

Que era um amor para a vida toda

That this is a love for a lifetime

...

...

Quando ele sair e tiver

When he grows up and has

A sua mulher

His wife

E já puder dividir um teto

And can share a home

Vamos poder vê-lo crescer

We'll be able to watch him grow

Ser o que quiser

To be whatever he wants

E tomar conta dos nossos netos

And take care of our grandchildren

Um dia já velhinhos cansados

One day, old and tired

Sempre lado a lado

Always side by side

Ele vai poder contar

He'll be able to tell

Que os pais estiveram sempre casados

That his parents were always married

Eternos namorados

Eternal lovers

E vieram provar

And they came to prove

Que ali

That there

Dissemos que era amor para a vida toda

We said it was love for a lifetime

Que foi contigo a minha vida toda

That I was with you my whole life

Que era um amor para a vida toda

That this is a love for a lifetime

Ali

There

Dissemos que era amor para a vida toda

We said it was love for a lifetime

Que foi contigo a minha vida toda

That I was with you my whole life

Foi um amor para a vida toda

This was a love for a lifetime

...

...

Ali

There

Dissemos que era amor para a vida toda

We said it was love for a lifetime

Que foi contigo a minha vida toda

That I was with you my whole life

Que era um amor para a vida toda

That this was a love for a lifetime

Ali

There

Dissemos que era amor para a vida toda

We said it was love for a lifetime

Que era contigo a minha vida toda

That I was with you my whole life

Que era um amor para a vida toda

That this was a love for a lifetime
