Teresinha (English)

Teresinha(Chico Buarque)

The first one arrived to me as someone who comes from the flower shopHe brought me a puppy toy; he brought me a pin of amethystHe told me about the voyages that he has done, and about the advantages that he hasHe showed me his watch, he used to call me “queen”He found me so unarmed, that he touched my heart, but he did not deny anything to me, then, scared, I said no.The second one arrived to me, as someone who arrives from the barHe brought me one liter of aguardente, very hard to drinkHe inquired about my past and he smelled the food I preparedHe searched my drawer and he used to call me "hooker"He found me so unarmed that he scratched my heart, but he did not give me anything, then, scared, I said no.The third one arrived to me, as someone who arrives from the nothingHe didn’t bring me anything, and also nothing asked to meI almost don’t know his name, but I understand what he wants, he step into my bed and he calls me “woman”He has arrived so deceitfully, that before I have tried to say no, he was already installed, as a keeper, inside of my heart.

Teresinha

O primeiro me chegouComo quem vem do florista:Trouxe um bicho de pelúcia,Trouxe um broche de ametista.Me contou suas viagensE as vantagens que ele tinha.Me mostrou o seu relógio;Me chamava de rainha.

Me encontrou tão desarmada,Que tocou meu coração,Mas não me negava nadaE, assustada, eu disse "não".

O segundo me chegouComo quem chega do bar:Trouxe um litro de aguardenteTão amarga de tragar.Indagou o meu passadoE cheirou minha comida.Vasculhou minha gaveta;Me chamava de perdida.

Me encontrou tão desarmada,Que arranhou meu coração,Mas não me entregava nadaE, assustada, eu disse "não".

O terceiro me chegouComo quem chega do nada:Ele não me trouxe nada,Também nada perguntou.Mal sei como ele se chama,Mas entendo o que ele quer!Se deitou na minha camaE me chama de mulher.

Foi chegando sorrateiroE antes que eu dissesse não,Se instalou feito posseiroDentro do meu coração
