Translation of the song Semáforo da João XXI artist Deolinda

Sentada no puff

Sitting in the puff

ela relia Proust

She reread Proust

ele fazia bluff

He made bluff

no bridge

On the bridge

ela ouvia Bach

She listened to Bach

ele curtia The Clash

He liked The Clash

entre os dois

Between the two

não havia Click

There was no Click

ela fazia Step

She made Step

ele comia num Snack

He ate in a Snack

ela citava o Brecht

She quoted Brecht

ele nicles

He didn't

ela vestia Dior

She wore Dior

ele uns ténis Rebook

He, Redbook sneakers

entre os dois

Between the two

não havia click

There was no Click

(instrumental)

(instrumental)

ela ia ao Lux

She went to the Lux

e bebia uma Flut

And drank a Flut

e ele de Super Bock

And he Super Bock

num Strip

on a Strip Club

ela morava num loft

She lived in a loft

ele orientava um spot

He leaded on a spot

entre os dois

Between the two

não havia click

There was no click

mas um dia

But one day

um querubim

A cherub

veio à terra

Came to Earth

e fez plim num sinal da João XXI

And made plim on the lights on João XXI

e assim sem haver nenhum click

And so, without there being a click

entre os dois houve carinhosamente

Between the two there was affectionally

entre os dois houve apaixonadamente

Between the two there was lovingly

entre os dois houve apenas e somente… pum

Between the two there was only... pum
