O Leãozinho Lyrics in English Ana Vilela
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song O Leãozinho by Ana Vilela from Portuguese to English.
Gosto muito de te ver, leãozinho
I really like seeing you, little lion
Caminhando sob o sol
Walking under the sun
Gosto muito de você, leãozinho
I really like you, little lion
Para desentristecer, leãozinho
To cheer up, little lion
O meu coração tão só
My heart so lonely
Basta eu encontrar você no caminho
All I need is to find you on the way
Um filhote de leão, raio da manhã
A lion cub, morning ray
Arrastando o meu olhar como um ímã
Pulling my gaze like a magnet
E o meu coração é o sol, pai de toda cor
And my heart is the sun, father of all color
Quando ele lhe doura a pele ao léu
When it gilds your skin freely
Gosto de te ver ao sol, leãozinho
I like seeing you in the sun, little lion
De te ver entrar no mar
Seeing you go into the sea
Tua pele, tua luz, tua juba
Your skin, your light, your mane
Gosto de ficar ao sol, leãozinho
I like staying in the sun, little lion
De molhar minha juba
Wetting my mane
De estar perto de você e entrar no mar
Being close to you and going into the sea
Um filhote de leão, raio da manhã
A lion cub, morning ray
Arrastando o meu olhar como um ímã
Pulling my gaze like a magnet
E o meu coração é o sol, pai de toda cor
And my heart is the sun, father of all color
Quando ele lhe doura a pele ao léu
When it gilds your skin freely
Gosto muito de te ver
I really like seeing you
Gosto muito de te ver
I really like seeing you
Gosto muito de você
I really like you
Gosto muito de te ver
I really like seeing you
Gosto muito de te ver
I really like seeing you
Gosto muito de você, leãozinho
I really like you, little lion

Did you like this lyrics translation?
desentristecer — to un-sadden / to make happy
Desentristecer is a fascinating word because it's formed by adding the prefix 'des-' (meaning 'un-' or 'undo') to 'entristecer' (to sadden). It literally means 'to unsadden' or 'to make happy again'.
In the song, the singer says, "Para desentristecer, leãozinho, o meu coração tão só" (To unsadden, little lion, my so lonely heart). It beautifully conveys the idea that the 'leãozinho' (little lion) has the power to lift their spirits and bring joy back to a solitary heart.
