Um Mágico No Peito Lyrics in English Pedro Abrunhosa & Os Bandemónio
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Um Mágico No Peito by Pedro Abrunhosa & Os Bandemónio from Portuguese to English.
Um dia tudo acaba
One day everything ends
Sem perceberes porquê
Without you understanding why
Num acorde de guitarra
In a guitar chord
Vês o mundo
You see the world
Mas ninguém te vê
But nobody sees you
As sombras
The shadows
Que falam
That speak
Te ouvem
Hear you
E dizem
And say
«Eu sou a noite»
"I am the night."
Então sentes o frio
Then you feel the cold
Duma qualquer cidade aberta
Of any open city
Sabes que as ruas estão contigo
You know the streets are with you
Só o teu corpo está em parte incerta
Only your body is in an unknown place
O vento
The wind
Que gritas
That you scream
Mais alto
Louder
Que o nome
Than the name
Que o medo de ti
Than the fear of you
Desenhos
Drawings
Desejos
Desires
Nos lábios
On the lips
No sangue
In the blood
Duma parede qualquer
Of any wall
E sobre a mesa um mar fechado
And on the table a closed sea
Uma aguarela feita de luz
A watercolor made of light
Um passado nunca acabado
A past never finished
E um beijo que alguém depôs
And a kiss someone left
Palavras
Words
Traídas
Betrayed
Que fogem
That flee
E dizem
And say
«Não me deixes nunca»
"Never leave me."
Aqui o tempo não é tempo
Here time isn't time
É só um chão que ninguém pisou
It's just a ground nobody stepped on
Trazes um louco no pensamento
You carry a madman in your thoughts
E um Verão que se eternizou
And a Summer that became eternal
Estradas
Roads
Que soltas
That you release
Dos olhos
From your eyes
Dos mundos
From the worlds
Que trazes em ti
That you carry within you
Desenhos
Drawings
Desejos
Desires
Nos lábios
On the lips
No sangue
In the blood
Duma parede qualquer
Of any wall
Há um mágico
There's a magician
Que não cabe nas tuas mãos
That doesn't fit in your hands
Trá-lo no peito
Carry him in your chest
Com a força do trovão
With the strength of thunder
E cada passo
And every step
É mais distante do que o que vês
Is further than what you see
Talvez bastante
Perhaps enough
Talvez discreto
Perhaps discreet
Para mostrar quem tu és
To show who you are
Mágico
Magician

Did you like this lyrics translation?
aguarela — watercolor
Aguarela translates to "watercolor". It's a beautiful and somewhat less common word in everyday Portuguese, making it stand out in the lyrics.
In the song, it appears in the line "Uma aguarela feita de luz" (A watercolor made of light). This imagery evokes a sense of delicate beauty and perhaps a fleeting, dreamlike quality, perfectly capturing the song's introspective and melancholic mood. It's a poetic choice that adds depth to the song's emotional landscape.
