Vassourinhas Lyrics Translation in English
Antonio NóbregaPortuguese Lyrics
English Translation
Se essa rua fosse minha
If this street were mine
Eu mandava ladrilhar
I would have it paved with tiles
Com pedrinhas de brilhantes
With little sparkling stones
Pra vassourinhas passar.(x3)
For the little brooms to pass (x3)
Somos nós os Vassourinhas
We are the little brooms
Todos nós em borbotão
All of us in abundance
Vamos varrer nossa cidade
Let's sweep our city
Isso não, oh isso não
Not that, oh not that
Arrepare meus senhores
Look, my gentlemen
O pai desse pessoal
The father of this group
Porque nos faz sair às ruas
Because it makes us take to the streets
Dando viva ao carnaval
Cheering for Carnival
Se essa rua fosse minha
If this street were mine
Eu mandava ladrilhar
I would have it paved with tiles
Com pedrinhas de brilhantes
With little sparkling stones
Pra vassourinhas passar.(x3)
For the little brooms to pass (x3)
Dessa vez o compromisso
This time the commitment
Que nos leva a fazer
That leads us to do
Poder mostrar nossa alegria
Can show our joy
E a cidade se varrer
And sweep the city
Se essa rua fosse minha
If this street were mine
Eu mandava ladrilhar
I would have it paved with tiles
Com pedrinhas de brilhantes
With little sparkling stones
Pra vassourinhas passar.
For the little brooms to pass
