Just a hint, perhaps you can find a better solution. This is based on a novel by Bernardim Ribeiro and there's also a "fado" song called "Menina e moça".

Here's a translation:
A girl and a child, I was taken from my father's house to distant lands; as for why I was taken away .... I was little, I didn't understand.

Menina e moça me levaram de casa de meu pai para longes terras; qual fosse então a causa daquela minha levada, era pequena, não na soube.

As for the second sentence, I think it means that Lisbon is a city which doesn't need introduction, but that it always has new reasons to be visited, to attract people (I mean, not just the traditonal/known reasons).

Forgot to add that "menina e moça" is just a way to reinforce that she's a little girl... But "girlish Lisbon" wouldn't work, I think. Perhaps you could use something like "this city, a girl and a child, along the lines of the popular Bernardim Ribeiro's novel, "Menina e Moça"...
