Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

E era o sapo dentro do saco

And it was the toad inside the bag

O saco cum sapo dentro

The bag with a toad inside

O sapo fazendo papo

The toad making chatter

O papo fazendo vento

The chatter creating wind


Nós agora vai falá desse noivo Zé perneta

Now let's talk about this groom José Pegleg

Era vesgo de uma perna e do oio era maneta

He was cross-eyed on one leg, and his eye was crippled

A noiva fazia mala, ele fazia maleta

The bride packed her suitcase, he packed a briefcase

A noiva tocava trompa, ele tocava trombeta

The bride played the horn, he played the trumpet


Ele escrevia de lápis, e a noiva de caneta

He wrote with a pencil, and the bride with a pen

A noiva cortava vara, ele cortava vareta

The bride cut a rod, he cut a small stick

Ela dormia no carro, e o noivo na carreta

She slept in the car, and the groom in the truck

Ela fazia carinho, e ele fazia careta

She caressed, and he grimaced


No dia do casamento, na casa do Zé Fulô

On the wedding day, at Zé Fulô's house

Agora nós vai dizer, aquilo foi um horror

Now we're going to say, that was a horror

Os dois se recolheram, logo ele se estranhou

They went to bed, soon he felt strange

Ela foi se desmanchando, ele logo se espantou

She started falling apart, he was soon amazed


Ela foi tirando um olho, depois um braço tirou

She started taking out an eye, then she took out an arm

Arrancou a cabeleira, ele aí se apavorou

She ripped off her wig, he got scared

Ela aí tirou um perna, ele ai logo gritou

Then she took out a leg, he immediately shouted

Minha filha, minha noiva, vê pra mim o que sobrou!

My daughter, my bride, see for me what's left!
