| Novo Amor (original) | Novo Amor (translation) |
|---|---|
| A luz apaga porque já raiou o dia | The light goes out because the day has already dawned |
| E a fantasia vai voltar pro barracão | And the fantasy will return to the shed |
| Outra ilusão desaparece quarta-feira | Another illusion disappears Wednesday |
| Queira ou não queira terminou o carnaval | Like it or not, the carnival is over |
| Mas não faz mal, não é o fim da batucada | But it doesn't matter, it's not the end of the drumming |
| E a madrugada vem trazer meu novo amor | And the dawn comes to bring my new love |
| Bate o tambor, chora a cuíca e o pandeiro | Beats the drum, cries the cuíca and the tambourine |
| Come o couro no terreiro porque o choro começou | Eat the leather in the yard because the crying started |
| A gente ri | People laugh |
| A gente chora | People cry |
| E joga fora o que passou | And throw away what has passed |
| A gente ri | People laugh |
| A gente chora | People cry |
| E comemora o novo amor | And celebrates the new love |
