Conta Errada [English translation]

I got started in calculus

In school at a tender age

It was later, still trying to reach the answer

That I meddled with someone

Me and you in that chapel

Added happiness

But I was followed one day

What treason life has

What bad times life has

I had a man, I was tempted

I added another, wrong score

I had the test and didn't fare well

One plus one equals two

And it is heaven, perhaps

Come one more, later

Two plus one is three

From the sum I took the final teaching

I really did add

But in love I failed

I did the math wrong

Cheating, even to cheaters

Holds one accountable alright:

It multiplies our pains

And divides an affection

By this time, you and I

Are still sharing an account

I only ask that, for my punishment

What I say should lessen my penalty

In this dark confession

From a cheat who is truthful

Who awaits you but doesn't expect

Your forgiveness anymore
