Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

Samba agoniza mas não morre

Samba agonizes but does not die

Alguém sempre te socorre

Someone always comes to your aid

Antes do suspiro derradeiro

Before the final sigh


Samba negro, forte, destemido

Black, strong, fearless samba

Foi duramente perseguido

Was harshly persecuted

Na esquina, no botequim, no terreiro

On the street corner, in the bar, in the terreiro


Samba inocente, pé no chão

Innocent samba, grounded

A fidalguia do salão

The nobility of the salon

Te abraçou, te envolveu

Embraced you, enveloped you


Mudaram toda a tua estrutura

They changed your entire structure

Te impuseram outra cultura

Imposed another culture on you

E você não percebeu

And you didn't realize


Mudaram toda a tua estrutura

They changed your entire structure

Te impuseram outra cultura

Imposed another culture on you

E você não percebeu

And you didn't realize


Samba agoniza mas não morre

Samba agonizes but does not die

Alguém sempre te socorre

Someone always comes to your aid

Antes do suspiro derradeiro

Before the final sigh


Samba negro, forte, destemido

Black, strong, fearless samba

Foi duramente perseguido

Was harshly persecuted

Na esquina, no botequim, no terreiro

On the street corner, in the bar, in the terreiro


Samba inocente, pé no chão

Innocent samba, grounded

A fidalguia do salão

The nobility of the salon

Te abraçou, te envolveu

Embraced you, enveloped you


Mudaram toda a tua estrutura

They changed your entire structure

Te impuseram outra cultura

Imposed another culture on you

E você não percebeu

And you didn't realize


Mudaram toda a tua estrutura

They changed your entire structure

Te impuseram outra cultura

Imposed another culture on you

E você não percebeu

And you didn't realize
