Paroles et traduction Gilberto Gil - O Pato

O Pato

O pato vinha cantando alegremente, quém, quém
Quando o marreco sorridente pediu
Para entrar também no samba
O ganso gostou da dupla e fez também quém, quém
Olhou pro cisne e disse assim: vem, vem
E o quarteto ficará bem, muito bom, muito bem
Na beira da lagoa foram ensaiar para começar
O tico-tico no fubá
A voz do pato era mesmo um desacato
Jogo de cena com o ganso era mato
Mas eu gostei do final
Quando cairam n'água
Ensaiando o vocal
Quém, quém, quém, quém
Quém, quém, quém, quém
Quém, quém, quém, quém
O pato vinha cantando alegremente, quém, quém
Quando um marreco sorridente pediu
Para entrar também no samba
O ganso gostou da dupla e fez também quém, quém
Olhou pro cisne e disse assim: vem, vem
E o quarteto ficará bem, muito bom, muito bem
Na beira da lagoa foram ensaiar para começar
O tico-tico no fubá
A voz do pato era mesmo um desacato
Jogo de cena com o ganso era mato
Mas eu gostei do final
Quando cairam n'água
Ensaiando o vocal
Quém, quém, quém, quém
Quém, quém, quém, quém
Quém, quém, quém, quém
O pato vinha cantando alegremente, quém, quém
Quando um marreco sorridente pediu
Para entrar também no samba
O ganso gostou da dupla e fez também quém, quém
Olhou pro cisne e disse assim: vem, vem
Que o quarteto ficará bem, muito bom, muito bem
Na beira da lagoa foram ensaiar para começar
O tico-tico no fubá
A voz do pato era mesmo um desacato
Jogo de cena com o ganso era mato
Mas eu gostei do final
Quando cairam n'água
Ensaiando o vocal
Quém, quém, quém, quém
Quém, quém, quém, quém
Quém, quém, quém, quém
Quém, quém, quém, quém
Quém, quém, quém, quém
Quém, quém, quém, quém
O pato

The Duck

The duck came singing merrily, quack, quack
When the smiling drake asked
To also join the samba
The goose liked the duo and also made quack, quack
Looked at the swan and said like this: come, come
And the quartet will be fine, very good, very good
On the edge of the lake they went to rehearse to begin
The pecking chicken in the cornmeal
The duck's voice was really a disgrace
The interplay with the goose was crazy
But I liked the end
When they fell into the water
Rehearsing the vocals
Quack, quack, quack, quack
Quack, quack, quack, quack
Quack, quack, quack, quack
The duck came singing merrily, quack, quack
When the smiling drake asked
To also join the samba
The goose liked the duo and also made quack, quack
Looked at the swan and said like this: come, come
And the quartet will be fine, very good, very good
On the edge of the lake they went to rehearse to begin
The pecking chicken in the cornmeal
The duck's voice was really a disgrace
The interplay with the goose was crazy
But I liked the end
When they fell into the water
Rehearsing the vocals
Quack, quack, quack, quack
Quack, quack, quack, quack
Quack, quack, quack, quack
The duck came singing merrily, quack, quack
When the smiling drake asked
To also join the samba
The goose liked the duo and also made quack, quack
Looked at the swan and said like this: come, come
Because the quartet will be fine, very good, very good
On the edge of the lake they went to rehearse to begin
The pecking chicken in the cornmeal
The duck's voice was really a disgrace
The interplay with the goose was crazy
But I liked the end
When they fell into the water
Rehearsing the vocals
Quack, quack, quack, quack
Quack, quack, quack, quack
Quack, quack, quack, quack
Quack, quack, quack, quack
Quack, quack, quack, quack
Quack, quack, quack, quack
