| Esquina de rua (original) | Esquina de rua (translation) |
|---|---|
| Tinhas o corpo cansado | Your body was tired |
| E a cidade era tão fria | And the city was so cold |
| Ninguém dormia a teu lado | Nobody slept beside you |
| Ninguém sabia que amado | no one knew who loved |
| O teu corpo se acendia | Your body would light up |
| Andavas devagarinho | you walked slowly |
| Pelas ruas de Lisboa | Through the streets of Lisbon |
| Em busca de algum carinho | In search of some affection |
| Que te fosse pão e vinho | That it were bread and wine for you |
| E te desse noite boa | And have you had a good night |
| Eras triste se sorrias | You were sad if you smiled |
| E mais nova se choravas | And younger if you cried |
| As palavras que dizias | The words you said |
| Tinham dores e alegrias | They had pain and joy |
| E só ternura deixavas | And only tenderness you left |
| Por ti não houve ninguém | for you there was no one |
| Para quem te desses nua | For whom you gave yourself naked |
| Podias ter sido mãe | you could have been a mother |
| Podias ter sido mãe | you could have been a mother |
| E foste esquina de rua | And you were street corner |
