Sai Da Toca Tatu Lyrics Translation in English
Mazinho & LucianoPortuguese Lyrics
English Translation
Todos os dias bem de tardezinha
Every day, in the late afternoon
Vou camperear la na beira da roça
I go horseback riding on the edge of the field
Logo escuto os cachorros latindo
Soon, I hear the dogs barking
E ai que a coisa engrossa
And that's when things get serious
No entreveiro da guaitecada
In the midst of the cattle ranch chaos
Mata adentro quebrando taboca
Deep into the woods, breaking taboca
Vou chegando e soltando o grito
I approach and let out a yell
Sai da toca, tatu, sai da toca
Come out of your hole, armadillo, come out of your hole
Sai da toca, tatu, sai da toca
Come out of your hole, armadillo, come out of your hole
Que eu te surro com rama de mandioca
I'll beat you with a cassava stem
Pula do galho bugil pula do galho
Jump off the branch, little owl, jump off the branch
Sem medo de escorregar no orvalho
Without fear of slipping on the dew
Quando escuto a pintada esturrando
When I hear the wild turkey calling
Já vou logo virando cambota
I quickly start turning somersaults
Os cachorros tremendo de medo
The dogs trembling with fear
Aguardando a cara na palhoça
Waiting for the face in the shack
Eu vou saindo bem de fininho
I'm sneaking away very quietly
Na carreira até perco as botas
In a hurry, I even lose my boots
Bem de longe ainda solto o grito
From far away, I still let out a yell
Sai da toca, tatu, sai da toca
Come out of your hole, armadillo, come out of your hole
Que eu te surro com rama de mandioca
I'll beat you with a cassava stem
Pula do galho bugil pula do galho
Jump off the branch, little owl, jump off the branch
Sem medo de escorregar no orvalho
Without fear of slipping on the dew
