A Casa Lyrics Translation in English
Vinicius de Moraes
Portuguese Lyrics
English Translation
Era uma casa
It was a house
Muito engraçada
Very funny
Não tinha teto
It had no roof
Não tinha nada
It had nothing
Ninguém podia
No one could
Entrar nela, não
Enter it, no
Porque na casa
Because in the house
Não tinha chão
There was no floor
Ninguém podia
No one could
Dormir na rede
Sleep in the hammock
Porque na casa
Because in the house
Não tinha parede
There were no walls
Ninguém podia
No one could
Fazer pipi
Pee
Porque penico
Because a chamber pot
Não tinha ali
Was not there
Mas era feita
But it was made
Com muito esmero
With great care
Na Rua dos Bobos
In the Fool Street
Número zero
Number zero
Mas era feita
But it was made
Com muito esmero
With great care
Na Rua dos Bobos
In the Fool Street
Número zero
Number zero
Era uma casa
It was a house
Muito engraçada
Very funny
Não tinha teto
It had no roof
Não tinha nada
It had nothing
Ninguém podia
No one could
Entrar nela, não
Enter it, no
Porque na casa
Because in the house
Não tinha chão
There was no floor
Ninguém podia
No one could
Dormir na rede
Sleep in the hammock
Porque na casa
Because in the house
Não tinha parede
There were no walls
Ninguém podia
No one could

Mas era feita

Com muito esmero
With great care
Na Rua dos Bobos
In the Fool Street
Número zero
