Lyrics and translation Paulinho Boca De Cantor - Preta Pretinha

Preta Pretinha

Enquanto eu corria, assim eu ia
Eu ia lhe chamar enquanto corria a barca
Por minha cabeça não passava
Só, só, somente só
Assim vou lhe chamar, assim você vai ser
Lá iá lá lá iá, lá lá lá iá, lá iá
Preta, preta, pretinha
Abre a porta e a janela e vem ver o sol nascer
Eu sou um pássaro que vivo avoando
Vivo avoando sem nunca mais parar
Ai, ai, ai, ai saudade não venha me matar
(ENGLISH VERSION)
As I ran, so I would
I would call him while running the boat
It was not my head
Only, only, only just
So I will call you, so you will be
There there there yeah yeah, yeah La la la, then yeah
Black, black, pretinha
Open the door and the window and see the next sunrise
I am a bird that live avoando
Living without avoando never stop
Oh, oh, oh, oh nostalgia will not kill me

Little Black Girl

While I was running, so I would
I would call to you as I steered the boat
It didn't even cross my mind
Only, only, only you
That's what I'm going to call you, that's what you will be
La la la la la, la la la la, la la
Black girl, little black girl
Open the door and the window and come see the sunrise
I am a bird that lives by flying
Living by flying without ever stopping
Oh, oh, oh, oh don't let longing kill me
(ENGLISH VERSION)
As I ran, so I would
I would call him while running the boat
It was not my head
Only, only, only just
So I will call you, so you will be
There there there yeah yeah, yeah La la la, then yeah
Black, black, pretinha
Open the door and the window and see the next sunrise
I am a bird that live avoando
Living without avoando never stop
Oh, oh, oh, oh nostalgia will not kill me
