Zélia Duncan "Duas Namoradas" lyrics

Translation to:en

Duas Namoradas

Tenho duas namoradasA música e a poesiaQue ocupam minhas noitesQue acabam com meus dias

Uma fala sem pararA outra nunca desligaNão consigo separarDuvi-dê-ó-dó que alguém consiga

Cantar é saber juntarMelodia, ritmo e harmoniaSe eu tivesse que optarNão sei qual eu escolheria

Tem vez que o caso é comigoTem vez que sou só sentinelaXifópagas1, caso antigoTem vez que é só entre elas

Nenhum instante se deixamGrudadas pelas costelasNenhum segundo me largamTambém eu não largo delas

Two Girlfriends

Music and poetryThey are my two girlfriendsThey occupy my nightsThey make me run out of days

One of them speaks a lotThe other never shuts upI can't put them apartI doubt someone can

To sing is to know how to mixMelody, rhythm and harmoniesIf I had to choose one of themI don't know which one I would choose

Sometimes the issue is with meSometimes I'm only a sentinelThey can't be separated, they share an old affairSometimes the issues are only between them

They never leave each otherThey're made from each other's ribsThey never leave meAlso, I never leave them
