Um Samba No Bexiga Lyrics Translation in English
Elis ReginaPortuguese Lyrics
English Translation
Domingo nós fumo num samba no bexiga
Sunday we went to a samba in Bexiga
Na rua major, na casa do nicola
On Major Street, at Nicola's house
A mesa não deu conta
The table couldn't handle it
Saiu uma baita duma briga
A huge fight broke out
Era só pizza que avuava junto com as braxola
It was just pizza flying around with pork chops
Nóis era estranho no lugar
We were strangers in that place
E não quisemo se meter
And we didn't want to get involved
Não fumos lá pra briga, nós fumo lá pra come
We didn't go there for the fight; we went there to eat
Na hora "h" se enfiemo de baixo da mesa
When the trouble started, we slipped under the table
Fiquemo ali, que beleza vendo a nicola briga
We stayed there, how beautiful, watching Nicola fight
Dali a pouco escutemo a patrulha chegá
Soon after, we heard the patrol arrive
E o sargento oliveira falá
And Sergeant Oliveira said
Num tem importância
It doesn't matter
Foi chamada as ambulância
The ambulances were called
Carma pessoal,
Well, folks,
A situação aqui está muito cínica
The situation here is very cynical
Os mais pior vai pras clínica
The worst ones go to the clinics
