Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

E diga lá fada madrinha

And tell me, fairy godmother

Diga lá fada madrinha

Tell me, fairy godmother

As delícias para a corte

The delights for the court

E o palhaço para nós...rir e chorar

And the clown for us... to laugh and cry

(Ê boi)

(Hey ox)


Balas, doces, chocolates

Bullets, sweets, chocolates

(Baba na boca borrada)

(Drooling on the smeared mouth)

Brindes, prendas e anzóis

Toasts, gifts, and hooks

Pra esse imenso bebê se aquietar

For this immense baby to calm down

(Ê boi)

(Hey ox)


Dorme bem minha criança

Sleep well, my child

Se não essa bruxa avança

Otherwise, that witch advances

Corta língua, olhos e ouvidos

Cuts tongue, eyes, and ears

Faz da vida escuridão

Makes life darkness

Coma a maçã (açucarando sonho)

Eat the apple (sweetening dreams)

Estanca sangue, corta insônia

Stops blood, cuts insomnia

(Cabra-cega, bota-venda, tapa-vista, tudo-trevas)

(Blind man's bluff, blindfold, cover eyes, all darkness)


Mamãe posso ir?! Brincar!

Mom, can I go?! Play!

Diga ô bela adormecida

Tell me, oh beautiful sleeping beauty

Diga ô velha adormecida

Tell me, oh old sleeping beauty

Diga ô velha adormecida

Tell me, oh old sleeping beauty

O que tenho na mão diz o feitor

What do I have in my hand, says the overseer

(Ê boi)

(Hey ox)
