Title	VocÃª me apareceu
Text Submitted by scionblue	Source language: Brasiliaanse Portugees VocÃª me apareceu Fez o tudo virar nada E vice-versa Foi submersa A azeitona na empada que era eu VocÃª Ã© dona do caroÃ§o Da azeitona da empada que comeu VocÃª me apareceu Fez o nada virar tudo Me deixou mudo De tÃ£o tamanha 'CÃª me acanha Minha estranha Ã‰ o prazer de que sempre padeÃ§o Ã‰ do fim comeÃ§o e reconheÃ§o Que o avesso sempre esteve aqui Minha estranha Ã‰ o engano de minha certeza Ã‰ o insano que hÃ¡ na beleza A tristeza que me faz sorrir
Remarks about the translation	Uma canÃ§Ã£o popular no Brasil traduzido em InglÃªs Estados-Unidos.

Title	You appeared to me
Translation Engels Translated by lilian canale	Target language: Engels You appeared to me Made everything become nothing And the other way round It was submerged The olive in the pie that was me You are the owner of the pit Of the olive in the pie you ate You appeared to me Made the nothing become everything Left me speechless For being such You make me shy My strange You are the pleasure that makes me suffer The beginning of the end, I recognize That the reverse has always been here My strange You are the mistake of my certainty The craziness that is in the beauty The sadness that makes me smile
Remarks about the translation	Tough one! I chose "You are", but "Ã‰" may also be "It is", it's not clear in the original. Lyrics are always ambiguous.

	lilian canale Number of messages: 14972	Thanks for your input Kaumer I still prefer "appeared", it sounds more "poetic", remember that this is a song CC: Kaumer

	scionblue Number of messages: 1	Thank you very much Lillian. I am learning Brazilian Portuguese and Spanish (a novice)and I first am translating songs that I like into english. But this song, when I began translating it, made no sense at all. So I knew I was doing something wrong or the phrases were of a cultural meaning that I have no way of understanding unless asking a Br Portuguese speaker. P.S. The Belladona Summer Club Remix of this song is great!

	lilian canale Number of messages: 14972	You're welcome Poems and lyrics are quite difficult to translate, you know. The first because of the rhyme and the second because of the regional vocabulary used sometimes. I'm glad you appreciate Brazilian music, it is extremely rich, indeed. However it can be tricky too In some cases we are able to translate the words, but their strength may be lost. Welcome to
