Pagode Na Macumba Lyrics Translation in English

Fizeram uma macumba pra mim

They did a macumba for me

Lá pras bandas do rio brechó

Over there near the brechó river

Não queriam que um dia eu subisse na vida

They didn't want me to rise in life one day

E queriam que eu ficasse só

And they wanted me to stay alone

Quer saber como eu descobrir

Want to know how I found out

Convidei uns amigos para ir pescar

I invited some friends to go fishing

Mas a pesca não estava tão boa

But the fishing wasn't that good

A comida e a bebida estava pra acabar

The food and the drink were about to run out

De repente eu olhei para um lado

Suddenly I looked to one side

Achei um despacho e tinha meu retrato

I found a ritual and it had my picture

Tinha vinho e muita cachaça

There was wine and a lot of cachaça

Ainda estava quentinha a farofa de frango

The chicken farofa was still warm

Eu falei se a macumba é pra mim

I said if the macumba is for me

Então nessa macumba eu vou me acabar

Then in this macumba, I'm going to have a blast

Tomei todas cantando um pagode

I had them all while singing a "pagode"

Pois o tal negocio não vai me afetar

Because that thing won't affect me
