Rabo de Arraia Lyrics Translation in English
Filpo Ribeiro e a Feira do Rolo
Portuguese Lyrics
English Translation
Rabo de arraia
Tail of stingray
Atiradeira
Sling
Olha menino
Look, boy
A volta que esse mundo dá
The turn this world takes
Rabo de saia
Skirt's tail
Fim de feira
End of the fair
Uma lapada
A slap
Pra ver o mundo se acabar
To see the world come to an end
Ver a terra girar
See the earth spin
No calor da sambada
In the heat of the dance
Numa boca encarnada
In a incarnadine mouth
No baque do baião
In the beat of the baião
Na ponta do facão
On the tip of the machete
Na ginga de um capoeira
In the swing of a capoeira
Descendo e subindo ladeira
Going down and up the hill
Sem eira nem beira
Without a ridge or border
Pela contramão
Against the traffic
