Chap Chap Lyrics Translation in English
Trio NordestinoPortuguese Lyrics
English Translation
Que noite tão colorida
What a colorful night
É noite de são João
It's Saint John's night
No terreiro tem fogueira
In the yard, there's a bonfire
No céu estrela e balão
In the sky, stars and balloons
Os velhos fazem prece
The elders say their prayers
A as moças adivinhação
And the young ladies practice divination
E no salão também tem forró
And in the hall, there's also forró
E os casais dançando
And the couples dancing
Molhadinhos de suor
Drenched in sweat
E ouve o chão conversando com o sapato
And the floor listens to the conversation with the shoes
E também o sanfoneiro cochichando com os baixo
And also the accordion player whispering to the bass
Chap, chap, chap
Chap, chap, chap
Chinela no chão
Slippers on the floor
Chap, chap, chap
Chap, chap, chap
Bota lenha na fogueira
Add wood to the bonfire
Chap, chap, chap
Chap, chap, chap
Requebrando no salão
Shaking it in the hall
Chap, chap, chap
Chap, chap, chap
É forró a noite inteira
It's forró all night long
