Lyrics and translation Dorival Caymmi - Acalanto




Acalanto
A Lullaby
É tão tarde
It's so late
A manhã vem,
The morning is already here,
Todos dormem
Everyone is sleeping
A noite também,
The night too,
eu velo
Only I stay awake
Por você, meu bem
For you, my love
Dorme anjo
Sleep, angel
O boi pega Neném;
The ox is taking the baby;
no céu
Up in the sky
Deixam de cantar,
They stop singing,
Os anjinhos
The little angels
Foram se deitar,
Have gone to bed,
Mamãezinha
Mommy
Precisa descansar
Needs to rest
Dorme, anjo
Sleep, angel
Papai vai lhe ninar:
Daddy will sing you a lullaby:
"Boi, boi, boi,
"Ox, ox, ox,
Boi da cara preta
Ox with the black face
Pega essa menina
Take this little girl
Que tem medo de careta".
Who's afraid of the monster".
