Portuguese Lyrics
English Translation
O ai que ela fazia
The oh she used to make
O ui que ele dizia
The oh he used to say
Era a moqueca de siri
It was the crab stew
Que eles tanto comiam
That they ate so much
E tinha uma pimenta
And there was a pepper
Que tanto ardia
That burned so much
Ela gritava: ai!
She would scream: oh!
Ele gritava: ui!
He would scream: ah!
Ai, ui, tá ardendo, ui
Oh, ah, it's burning, ah
Ai, ui, tá ardendo, pai
Oh, ah, it's burning, dad
Lá na rua tem um beco
There's a alley down the street
Beco do siri
Alley of the crab
Quando escurece
When it gets dark
A galera grita assim:
The crowd shouts like this:
Ai, ui, tá ardendo, ui
Oh, ah, it's burning, ah
Ui, ai, tá ardendo, pai
Ah, oh, it's burning, dad
No silêncio da noite
In the silence of the night
A mulher me chama
The woman calls me
Estou travado
I'm locked up
Vou cair na cama
I'm going to fall into bed
Ai, ui, tá ardendo, ui
Oh, ah, it's burning, ah
Ui, ai, tá ardendo, pai
Ah, oh, it's burning, dad
