English Translation

Ninguém viu o que eu vi hoje

Nobody saw what I saw today

Na rodilha do cipó

In the loop of the vine

Um macaco de colete

A monkey in a vest

E um bugio de paletó

And a howler monkey in a suit


Ninguém viu o que eu vi hoje

Nobody saw what I saw today

Na rodilha do cipó

In the loop of the vine

Um macaco de colete

A monkey in a vest

E um bugio de paletó

And a howler monkey in a suit


Chora, meu louro

Cry, my parrot

Vem cá, meu coitadinho

Come here, my poor thing

Macaco, olha o teu rabo

Monkey, look at your tail

E deixa o rabo do vizinho

And leave the neighbor's tail


Chora, meu louro

Cry, my parrot

Vem cá, meu coitadinho

Come here, my poor thing

Macaco, olha o teu rabo

Monkey, look at your tail

E deixa o rabo do vizinho

And leave the neighbor's tail


Todo mundo se admira

Everyone is amazed

Que o macaco anda de pé

That the monkey walks on two legs

O macaco já foi gente

The monkey was once a person

Pode andar como quiser

Can walk however it wants


Todo mundo se admira

Everyone is amazed

Que o macaco anda de pé

That the monkey walks on two legs

O macaco já foi gente

The monkey was once a person

Pode andar como quiser

Can walk however it wants


Chora, meu louro

Cry, my parrot

Vem cá, meu coitadinho

Come here, my poor thing

Macaco, olha o teu rabo

Monkey, look at your tail

E deixa o rabo do vizinho

And leave the neighbor's tail


Chora, meu louro

Cry, my parrot

Vem cá, meu coitadinho

Come here, my poor thing

Macaco, olha o teu rabo

Monkey, look at your tail

E deixa o rabo do vizinho

And leave the neighbor's tail


Essa dança do macaco

This monkey dance

Que veio de antigamente

That came from ancient times

Onde o homem era bicho

Where man was a beast

E o macaco era gente

And the monkey was a person


Essa dança do macaco

This monkey dance

Que veio de antigamente

That came from ancient times

Onde o homem era bicho

Where man was a beast

E o macaco era gente

And the monkey was a person


Chora, meu louro

Cry, my parrot

Que esse mundo é um buraco

Because this world is a hole

A mulher matou o marido

The woman killed her husband

Pensando que era um macaco

Thinking he was a monkey


Chora, meu louro

Cry, my parrot

Que esse mundo é um buraco

Because this world is a hole

A mulher matou o marido

The woman killed her husband

Pensando que era um macaco

Thinking he was a monkey
