Translation
Augusta, Angélica and Consolation
Augusta, thank God,
Thank God,
Between you and Angélica
I found Consolation
That looked after me
And gave me her hand
Augusta, how I miss you
You were so vain,
(How I miss you)
And spent my money,
(How I miss you)
In imported clothes
And other nonsense
Angelica, how evil
You always stood me up,
(How evil...)
And even wore clothes,
(How evil...)
That smelled like a doctor's office,
Angelica
Augusta, thank God,
Between you and Angelica
I found Consolation
That looked after me
And gave me her hand
When I realized
That the Square of the Afflicted
Wasn't large enough
To fit my affliction
I went to live at the Station of Light
Because everything was dark
Inside my heart
I went to live...
I went to live at the Station of Light,
Because everything was dark
Inside my heart...
Augusta, how I miss you
You were so vain,
(How I miss you)
And spent my money,
(How I miss you)
In imported clothes
And other nonsense
Angelica, how evil
You always stood me up,
(How evil...)
And even wore clothes,
(How evil...)
That smelled like a doctor's office,
Angelica
Augusta, how I miss you
You were so vain,
(How I miss you)
And always spent my money, woman,
(How I miss you)
In imported clothes
And other nonsense

About translator
The lyrics talk about three famous avenues in São Paulo. Augusta, Angélica and Consolação. Augusta was known for its fancy stores for a while. Angelica was known for having many doctor's offices. Consolação is a big avenue that sits between them.
Square (largo) of the Afflicted is in Salvador where Tom Zé used to live before moving to São Paulo. In the lyrics, he plays with the word Largo (it's a type of square but it also can mean large/wide in other contexts). He also mentions Estação da Luz, a big train station in São Paulo. Here it's literally translated as Station of Light, but Luz is a neighbourhood.
