Pátio dos amores [English translation]

Sitting in a dressing-room,

I see my life story taking place before my very eyes.

Sitting in a dressing-room,

I find two red lips that were lost somewhere in my memory...

I wanted to love all my lovers,

Oh, no matter the place! Oh, no matter the origin!

But none of them knew how to conjugate for me

The verb "to love", which causes so much pain!

And when the marching band

Was passing right by your doorstep

I found your eyes,

I got lost in them and... I collapsed, as if I dead!

Oh my God, what a crazy situation!

Oh, I'm feeling hot and cold! Oh, I'm losing sleep!

Oh dear, how annoying: I went through all that trouble

Only to discover that that man already has a mistress...!
