Lemos was born in Peso da Régua. He was known as "the troubadour" (in Portuguese: Trovador) in Coimbra, where he graduated in Law, thanks the publication of the poetic newspaper O Trovador (repository of poetic productions of a group of young students). Besides João, director of that publication, were part of The Troubadour: Luís da Costa Pereira, António Xavier Rodrigues Cordeiro, José Freire de Serpa, Augusto Lima and Couto Monteiro.

João collaborated with other periodicals, as exemplified by the comedy newspaper The Comedy Portuguese (in Portuguese: a Comédia Portuguesa), where he started publishing in 1888.
