A patinha da vovó Lyrics Translation in English
Patati PatatáPortuguese Lyrics
English Translation
A patinha da vovó botou um ovo
The grandma duck's little paw laid an egg
Bem no meio de uma moita de bambu
Right in the middle of a thicket of bamboo
Todo mundo ficou muito espantado
Everyone was very astonished
Pois o ovo era grande pra chuchu
Because the egg was as big as a chayote
A patinha fez uma força danada
The little duck made a tremendous effort
Se espremia toda pro ovo sair
Squeezing herself all for the egg to come out
A vovó ficou até preocupada
Grandma got even worried
Ovo grande desse jeito eu nunca vi
An egg this big, I've never seen before
Daquele ovo saíram quatro patinhas
From that egg came four little paws
Que mal nasceram foram pro rio nadar
Which, as soon as they were born, went to swim in the river
Todas elas eram muito bonitinhas
All of them were very cute
E o nome delas eu agora vou contar
And now I'm going to tell you their names
Pata, peta, pita, pota, puxa!
Ducky, ducky, ducky, ducky, yay!
Muito pato pra nascer de um ovo só
So many ducks to be born from just one egg
Pata, peta, pita, pota, puxa!
Ducky, ducky, ducky, ducky, yay!
Os filhinhos da patinha da vovó
The little ones of grandma duck
