Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

Lá vai uma Chalana,

There goes a Chalana,

Bem longe se vai,

Going far away,

Navegando no remanso,

Sailing in the calm,

Do Rio Paraguai.

Of the Paraguay River.


Oh,Chalana sem querer,

Oh, Chalana unintentionally,

Tu aumentas minha dor,

You increase my pain,

Nessas águas tão serenas,

In these waters so serene,

Vai levando o meu amor.

Carrying away my love.

(Bis)

(Repeat)

E assim ela se foi,

And so she went,

Nem de mim se despediu,

Didn't even say goodbye to me,

A Chalana vai sumindo

The Chalana is disappearing

Na curva do rio,

In the curve of the river,

E se ela vai magoada,

And if she goes hurt,

Eu bem sei que tem razão,

I know she has a reason,

Fui ingrato eu feri,

I was ungrateful, I hurt,

O seu meigo coração.

Her gentle heart.


Oh,Chalana sem querer,

Oh, Chalana unintentionally,

Tu aumentas minha dor,

You increase my pain,

Nessas águas tão serenas,

In these waters so serene,

Vai levando o meu amor.

Carrying away my love.


(Bis)

(Repeat)
