"Não sejas mau para mim" ("Don't be mean to me", frequently written "p'ra mim" in line with the delivery of the title line) was the Portuguese entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1986 performed in Portuguese by Dora.

The song is a moderately up-tempo number, with Dora telling her lover "don't be so angry with me". She presents herself as being in love with the idea of love, suggesting that perhaps it was this attitude which caused her lover to be angry with her in the first place.

The song was performed twentieth on the night (following Finland's Kari Kuivalainen with "Never The End"). At the close of voting, it had received 28 points, placing 14th in a field of 20.

It was succeeded as Portuguese representative at the 1987 Contest by Nevada with "Neste barco à vela".
