English Translation

O que se leva desta vida

What one takes from this life

O que se come, o que se bebe, o que se brinca

What one eats, what one drinks, what one plays

Ai, ai

Ah, ah

Ai como sofre um usurário que tem tanto que nem sabe o que fazer

Oh, how a usurer suffers who has so much he doesn't even know what to do

Como padece o coitadinho que se mata sem ganhar nem pra cumer

How the poor one suffers, killing themselves without earning enough to eat

Eu nada tive, o que tenho nesta vida são as rumas pra andar

I had nothing, what I have in this life are the paths to walk

O meu consolo é que essa gente que tem tudo no caixão não vai levar

My consolation is that those people who have everything won't take it in the coffin

(Mas no caixão não vai levar)

(But won't take it in the coffin)

O que se leva desta vida

What one takes from this life

O que se come, o que se bebe, o que se brinca

What one eats, what one drinks, what one plays

Ai, ai...

Ah, ah...
