Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

Foi em uma quarta-feira

It was on a Wednesday

Saí pra te procurar

I went out to look for you

Andei a cidade inteira

I walked the entire city

Mas, cadê você?

But, where are you?

Cadê você?

Where are you?

A cidade é grande

The city is big

As pessoas muitas

Many people

E eu por aí

And I out there

Sem te encontrar

Without finding you

Vou pedir a oxalá

I will ask Oxalá

Oxalá quem guia

Oxalá who guides

Oxalá quem te mandou

Oxalá who sent you


Tanta volta pra nenhuma resposta

So many turns, no answer

Tanta volta pra nenhuma resposta

So many turns, no answer

Tanta volta pra nenhuma resposta

So many turns, no answer

Tanta volta pra nenhuma resposta

So many turns, no answer


Nenhuma resposta

No answer

Mas um punhado de folhas sagradas

But a handful of sacred leaves

Pra me curar, pra me afastar de todo mal

To heal me, to keep me away from all evil


Para-raio, bete branca, assa peixe

Lightning rod, white whip, fish wing

Abre caminho, patchuli

Open the way, patchouli


Para-raio

Lightning rod

Para afastar o mal

To keep away evil

Para afastar a inveja

To keep away envy

Para atrair o amor

To attract love

Para atrair o que for bom

To attract whatever is good
