Passe a Mão No Rabo Dela Lyrics Translation in English
Frank Aguiar
Portuguese Lyrics
English Translation
Foi numa festa de gado
It was at a cattle party
Que eu vi essa cena bela
That I saw this beautiful scene
Uma novilha famosa escapou pela cancela
A famous heifer escaped through the gate
O patrão chamou o vaqueiro
The boss called the cowboy
Monte logo em sua sela
Get on your saddle quickly
Bote o cavalo na pista e segure no rabo dela
Put the horse on the track and grab its tail
Segure no rabo dela
Grab its tail
Passe a mão no rabo dela
Pass your hand on its tail
Porque eu não posso perder
Because I can't lose
Minha novilha amarela
My yellow heifer
Segure no rabo dela
Grab its tail
Passe a mão no rabo dela
Pass your hand on its tail
Porque eu não posso perder
Because I can't lose
Minha novilha amarela
My yellow heifer
O locutor já dizia
The announcer was already saying
Aquela frase singela
That simple phrase
Quando a multidão aprova
When the crowd approves
O malandro logo apela
The rogue quickly appeals
Quando passava a morena bonita
When the beautiful brunette passed by
Com uma gazela a machada
With a grace like a gazelle
Gritava deixe que eu seguro ela
He shouted, "Let me grab it"
Segure no rabo dela
Grab its tail
Passe a mão no rabo dela
Pass your hand on its tail
Porque eu não posso perder
Because I can't lose
Minha novilha amarela
My yellow heifer
Segure no rabo dela
Grab its tail
Passe a mão no rabo dela
Pass your hand on its tail
Porque eu não posso perder
Because I can't lose
Minha novilha amarela
My yellow heifer
Quando o Forró começou
When the Forró started
Fui dança com Isabela
I went to dance with Isabela
Com a morena mais bonita
With the most beautiful brunette
Do que atriz de novela
More beautiful than a soap opera actress
O cantor muito malandro só reparava pra ela
The very cunning singer only had eyes for her
Pra eu não perder pro artista
So as not to lose to the artist
Fiquei agarrado nela
I stayed close to her
Segure no rabo dela
Grab its tail
Passe a mão no rabo dela
Pass your hand on its tail
Porque eu não posso perder
Because I can't lose
Minha novilha amarela
My yellow heifer
Segure no rabo dela
Grab its tail
Passe a mão no rabo dela
Pass your hand on its tail
Porque eu não posso perder
Because I can't lose
Minha novilha amarela
My yellow heifer
Já era meia-noite sai da festa com ela
It was midnight, I left the party with her
Acordei só de manhã com sol pela janela
I woke up in the morning with sunlight through the window
O locutor já dizia quero o vaqueiro na sela
The announcer was saying, "I want the cowboy on the saddle"
E hoje tem que ser bom pra pegar no rabo dela
And today has to be good to grab its tail
Segure no rabo dela
Grab its tail
Passe a mão no rabo dela
Pass your hand on its tail
Porque eu não posso perder
Because I can't lose
Minha novilha amarela
My yellow heifer
Segure no rabo dela
Grab its tail
Passe a mão no rabo dela
Pass your hand on its tail
Porque eu não posso perder
Because I can't lose
Minha novilha amarela
My yellow heifer
