Paz E Amor Lyrics in English Lulu Santos
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Paz E Amor by Lulu Santos from Portuguese to English.
Lá vem eles dizendo de novo
Here they come saying it again
Dessa vez vai ser pra valer
This time it's going to be for real
Lá vem eles mentindo pro povo
Here they come lying to the people
Que a parada vai se resolver
That the situation will be resolved
Quem nego acha que engana
Who the hell do they think they're fooling
Nem fulano, nem beltrana
Not John Doe, nor Jane Doe
Ficam prometendo um paraíso
They keep promising a paradise
Mas não sabem evitar a dor
But they don't know how to avoid the pain
Lá vão eles fugindo de novo
There they go running away again
Sem sequer tentar se esconder
Without even trying to hide
Lá vão eles pulando do fogo
There they go jumping out of the fire
Bem na hora do 'vamo vê'
Right at the moment of truth
Quem abandona o navio
Whoever abandons the ship
Não segurará pavio
Won't hold the fort
Fica esperando um paraíso
Keeps waiting for a paradise
Que jamais vai ser
That will never be
Paz e amor só para quem lutar por isso
Peace and love only for those who fight for it
Paz e amor só para quem lutar
Peace and love only for those who fight
Lá vem eles, pregando de novo
Here they come, preaching again
Dessa vez é a vez que vai ser
This time is the time it's going to be
Lá vem eles, incensos e flores
Here they come, incense and flowers
Hare Krishna, falô pode crê
Hare Krishna, sure, believe it
Como tem gente que se engana
How many people fool themselves
Crente, crente que é bacana
Really believing it's cool
Fica esperando um paraíso
Keeps waiting for a paradise
Que jamais vai ser
That will never be
Paz e amor só para quem lutar por isso
Peace and love only for those who fight for it
Paz e amor só para quem lutar
Peace and love only for those who fight

Did you like this lyrics translation?
bacana — cool / awesome
Bacana is a very common and popular Brazilian Portuguese slang word that means 'cool', 'awesome', or 'great'. It's an informal adjective used to describe something or someone positive and enjoyable.
In the song, Lulu Santos uses it ironically in the line "Crente, crente que é bacana" (Believing, believing that it's cool), referring to people who are easily fooled or think they are clever, highlighting a sense of false confidence or misguided belief. This makes the word particularly interesting in this context.
