Dona Carola Lyrics Translation in English
Chico BuarquePortuguese Lyrics
English Translation
Levantei-me da cama sem poder,
I got up from bed unable to,
Até hoje ninguém vem me ver,
Until today, no one comes to see me,
Fui amigo enquanto eu tive dinheiro,
I was a friend while I had money,
Hoje eu não tenho companheiro.
Today, I have no companion.
Hoje eles fogem de mim mas não faz mal,
Today, they run away from me, but it doesn't matter,
Amigo é só pra levar meu capital,
A friend is only to take my capital,
Se não fosse a dona Augusta e a dona Carola,
If it weren't for Mrs. Augusta and Mrs. Carola,
Eu saia do hospital de camisola.
I would leave the hospital in a nightgown.
Levantei-me da cama sem poder,
I got up from bed unable to,
Até hoje ninguém vem me ver,
Until today, no one comes to see me,
Fui amigo enquanto eu tive dinheiro,
I was a friend while I had money,
Hoje eu não tenho companheiro.
Today, I have no companion.
Hoje eles fogem de mim mas não faz mal,
Today, they run away from me, but it doesn't matter,
Amigo é só pra levar meu capital,
A friend is only to take my capital,
Se não fosse a dona Augusta e a dona Carola,
If it weren't for Mrs. Augusta and Mrs. Carola,
Eu saia do hospital de camisola....
I would leave the hospital in a nightgown...
