Quando a Maré Encher Lyrics Translation in English

Fui na rua pra brincar, procurar o que fazer

I went out on the street to play, to find something to do

Fui na rua cheirar cola, arrumar o que comer

I went out on the street to sniff glue, to find something to eat

Fui na rua jogar bola, ver uns carros correr

I went out on the street to play soccer, to see some cars race

Quando a maré encher, quando a maré encher

When the tide rises, when the tide rises
