Paroles et traduction Marcelo Vianna - Patrão Prenda Seu Gado

Patrão Prenda Seu Gado

Ô patrão
Ô patrão
Ô patrão, prenda seu gado
Na lavra tem um ditado
Quem mata gado é jurado
Missa de padra é latim
Rapaz solteiro é letrado
Em vim preso da Bahia
Porque era namorado
Madame Diê, lalá

Samba ioiô, samba iaiá
Que o dia e vem, doná
Samba ioiô, samba iaiá
Que o dia e vem, doná

Eu bem sei
Eu bem sei
Eu bem sei que fui culpado
De vir preso da Bahia
Só porque fui namorado
Vou tirar meu passaporte
Meu camarote de proa
Eu aqui não vou ficar
Vou-me embora pra Lisboa
Senhorita vai ver, doná

Samba ioiô, samba iaiá
Que o dia e vem, doná
Samba ioiô, samba iaiá
Que o dia e vem, doná

Ô, Joana, ô Maria
Saruê pra que trabalha
No quilombo da cutia
No pavilhão, da atalaia
Era hoje, era ontem, era donte
Era donte, era ontem, era hoje
Sinhazinha mandou me chamá
Corri quatro cantos
Balão de iaiá

Balão êê, Balão á
Balão êê, Balão á

Era hoje, era ontem, era donte
Era donte, era ontem, era hoje
Sinhazinha mandou me chamá
Corri quatro cantos
Balão de iaiá

Balão êê, Balão á
Balão êê, Balão á

Boss, Keep Your Cattle Enclosed

Oh, boss
Oh, boss
Oh, boss, keep your cattle enclosed
On the farm there's a saying
He who kills cattle is condemned
A priest's mass is in Latin
A single young man is educated
I came to be imprisoned from Bahia
Because I was in love
Madame Dee, lalá

Samba ioiô, samba iaiá
That day is coming, my lady
Samba ioiô, samba iaiá
That day is coming, my lady

I know well
I know well
I know well that I was guilty
Of coming to be imprisoned from Bahia
Just because I was in love
I'm going to get my passport
My first-class cabin
I'm not going to stay here
I'm going to Lisbon
You'll see, my lady

Samba ioiô, samba iaiá
That day is coming, my lady
Samba ioiô, samba iaiá
That day is coming, my lady

Oh, Joanna, oh Maria
Why does a saruê work?
In the cutia's village
In the pavilion, the watchtower
It was today, it was yesterday, it was before
It was before, it was yesterday, it was today
The young lady called me
I ran all over the place
A balloon for iaiá

Balloon êê, Balloon á
Balloon êê, Balloon á

It was today, it was yesterday, it was before
It was before, it was yesterday, it was today
The young lady called me
I ran all over the place
A balloon for iaiá

Balloon êê, Balloon á
Balloon êê, Balloon á
