Outro Baile da Serra Lyrics Translation in English

Amigo Adelar Bertussi, hoje eu vou te contar

Friend Adelar Bertussi, today I'll tell you

Deu outro baile lá na Serra que eu empreitei pra tocar

There was another party in the mountains that I organized to play

Tinha morena bonita e o meu irmão tava' lá

There were beautiful brunettes, and my brother was there

Mas o gaiteiro era eu e, dessa vez, não fui dançar

But I was the accordion player, and this time, I didn't dance

Tinha gaiteiro e ginete, laçador de todo laço

There were accordion players and riders, lassos of every kind

Prenda bonita sobrava e eu firme no compasso

Beautiful ladies were abundant, and I stayed in step

Meu irmão viu a morena e também quis apertar

My brother saw the brunette and also wanted to court her

Mas o velho pai da moça resolveu de não deixar

But the old father of the girl decided not to allow it

Nem chegou a meia noite, já se deu o reboliço

Before midnight, the uproar began

Eu, que tocava enfezado, não me meti no enguiço

I, playing angrily, didn't get involved in the quarrel

Quebraram mais de dez banco', brigaram mais de uma hora

They broke more than ten benches, fought for over an hour

Meu irmão dava-lhe pau e eu me bandeei campo fora

My brother fought hard, and I left the field

E o fandango terminou por causa do meu irmão

And the fandango ended because of my brother

Que é um índio bagunceiro desde os tempos do Pontão

Who's a mischievous Indian since the Pontão times

Eu peguei minha cordeona, me bandeei pra minha terra

I took my accordion, left for my land

Mas nunca mais vou esquecer deste outro baile da Serra

But I'll never forget this other party in the mountains
