Paroles et traduction Cesária Évora - Carnaval de São Vicente

Carnaval de São Vicente

J'a'm conchia São Vicente
Na sê ligria na sê sabura
Ma 'm ca pud fazê ideia
S'na carnaval era mas sab
São Vicente é um brasilin
Chei di ligria chei di cor
Ness três dia di loucura
Ca ten guerra ê carnaval
Ness morabeza sen igual
Nô ten un fistinha mas sossegod
Ca bô exitá bô podê entrá
Coque e bafa ca ta faltá
Hôje é dia di carnaval
São Vicente é um brasilin
Chei di ligria chei di cor
Ness três dia di loucura
Ca ten guerra ê carnaval
Ca ten guerra ê carnaval
Ca ten guerra ê carnaval
Ca ten guerra ê carnaval
Ca ten guerra ê carnaval
Ca ten guerra ê carnaval

Carnaval of São Vicente

I love São Vicente
For its happiness and its joy
But I couldn't have imagined
That its carnival would be even more joyous
São Vicente is a little Brazil
Full of happiness, full of color
In these three days of madness
There is no war, only carnival
In this unparalleled warmth
There is no party more peaceful
If you can speak, you can enter
Food and drink are always available
Today is the day of the carnival
São Vicente is a little Brazil
Full of happiness, full of color
In these three days of madness
There is no war, only carnival
There is no war, only carnival
There is no war, only carnival
There is no war, only carnival
There is no war, only carnival
There is no war, only carnival
