Café Nice Lyrics Translation in English
Wilson Batista
Portuguese Lyrics
English Translation
Quando alguém me diz
When someone tells me
Que o samba veio do morro
That samba came from the hill
Eu me calo para não discutir
I keep quiet not to argue
O samba nasceu numa caixa de fósforo,
Samba was born in a matchbox
Foi no Café Nice,
It was at Café Nice
Ninguém vai me desmentir
No one will contradict me
Nice da boemia
Nice of bohemia
Muita inspiração e barriga vazia
Lots of inspiration and empty stomach
Bate-papo, gente bamba
Chit-chat, cool people
Ali nasceu a primeira escola de samba.
There was born the first samba school.
