Paroles et traduction Ney Matogrosso - Bambo De Bambú

Bambo De Bambú

Olha o bambo de bambu, bambu, bambu
Olha o bambo de bambu, bambulelê
Olha o bambo de bambu, bambulalá
Eu quero ver dizer três vezes
Bambulê, bambulalá

Fui a um banquete na casa do Zé Pequeno
A mesa tava no sereno pra todo mundo caber
Tinha de toda qualidade de talher
Tinha mais homem que mulher
Mas só não tinha o que comer, bambu

No tal banquete dito-cujo referido
Mulher que tinha marido
Não passou aperto, não
Pois as danadas, para não morrer de fome
Cada qual comeu seu homem
Não tiveram indigestão, bambu

Conheço um homem que tem 17 filhos
Que pôs tudo no desvio
Pra polícia empregar
A mulher dele, de beleza ainda promete
Dar a luz a dezessete
Pra depois então parar, bambu

Bambo De Bambú

Look at the bamboo, bamboo, bamboo
Look at the bamboo, bambulê
Look at the bamboo, bambulalá
I want you to say it three times
Bambulê, bambulalá

I went to a banquet at Zé Pequeno's house
The table was out in the open so everyone could fit
There was every kind of cutlery
There were more men than women
But there was nothing to eat, bamboo

At the aforementioned banquet
The women who had husbands
Didn't suffer, no
Because the damned things, in order not to starve to death
Each one ate her man
They didn't have indigestion, bamboo

I know a man who has 17 children
Who put them all in prison
So that the police could employ them
His wife, still beautiful, promises
To give birth to seventeen more
And then she will stop, bamboo
