Cachaça Mecânica (original)Cachaça Mecânica (translation)
Vendeu seu ternoHe sold his Sunday suit
Seu relógio e sua almaHis watch, and bartered off his soul
E até o santoAnd even the saint
Ele vendeu com muita féHe sold, with all a zealot’s faith
Comprou fiadoBought on credit
Prá fazer sua mortalhaTo cut and stitch his winding-sheet
Tomou um gole de cachaçaHe tipped back a draught of cachaça
E deu no pé…Then fled like smoke…
MariazinhaMariazinha
Ainda viu João no matoStill saw João out in the brush
Matando um gatoKilling a cat
Prá vestir seu tamborimTo skin his tambourine in hide
E aquela tardeAnd all that afternoon
Já bem tarde, comentavaLate as dusk, people murmured
Lá vai um homemThere goes a man
Se acabar até o fim…Burning himself to the last ash…
João bebeuJoão drank
Toda cachaça da cidadeThe whole cachaça of the town
Bateu com forçaStruck with full force
Em todo bumbo que ele viaEach bass drum that came in his sight
Gastou seu bolsoEmptied his pockets
Mas sambou desesperadoYet sambaed on in despair
Comeu confeteHe swallowed confetti
SerpentinaStreamers
E a fantasia…And the costume’s gaudy dream…
Levou um tomboHe took a fall
Bem no meio da avenidaThere in the avenue’s midstream
DesconfiadoMistrustful
Que outro gole não bebiaThat not one further gulp remained
Dormiu no tomboHe slept in the fall
E foi pisado pela escolaAnd the samba school trod over him
Morreu de sambaHe died of samba
De cachaça e de folia…Of cachaça and carnival…
Tanto ele investiuSo much he staked
Na brincadeiraOn this mad masquerade
Prá tudo, tudoFor all, for all
Se acabar na terça-feira…To spend itself by Tuesday…
Vendeu seu ternoHe sold his Sunday suit
E até o santoAnd even the saint
Comprou fiadoBought on credit
Tomou um goleHe took a draught
João no matoJoão in the brush
Matando um gatoKilling a cat
Naquela tardeThat afternoon
Lá vai o homem…There goes the man…
João bebeuJoão drank
Toda cachaça da cidadeThe whole cachaça of the town
Bateu com forçaStruck with full force
Em todo bumbo que ele viaEach bass drum that came in his sight

Prá tudo, tudoFor all, for all
Se acabar na terça-feira…(3x)To spend itself by Tuesday…(3x)
