Nos Bailes da Vida(original) |
| Foi nos bailes da vida |
| Ou num bar em troca de pão |
| Que muita gente boa pôs o pé na profissão |
| De tocar um instrumento e de cantar |
| Não importando se quem pagou quis ouvir |
| Foi assim |
| Cantar era buscar o caminho que vai dar no Sol |
| Tenho comigo as lembranças do que eu era |
| Para cantar, nada era longe, tudo tão bom |
| Té a estrada de terra na boléia de caminhão |
| Era assim |
| Com a roupa encharcada |
| A alma repleta de chão |
| Todo artista tem de ir aonde o povo está |
| Se foi assim, assim será |
| Cantando me desfaço e não me canso de viver |
| Nem de cantar |
| (translation) |
| It was at the dances of life |
| Or in a bar in exchange for bread |
| That many good people set foot in the profession |
| To play an instrument and to sing |
| It doesn't matter if who paid wanted to hear |
| It was so |
| Singing was looking for the way that leads to the Sun |
| I have with me the memories of what I was |
| To sing, nothing was far, everything was so good |
| You have the dirt road on the truck ride |
| It was like this |
| With clothes soaked |
| The soul full of floor |
| Every artist has to go where the people are |
| If so, so it will be |
| Singing I get rid of it and I don't get tired of living |
| Not to sing |
