Paroles et traduction Ney Matogrosso - Bambo do Bambu

Bambo do Bambu

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 of Bambu

Look at the bamboo of bamboo, bamboo, bamboo
Look at the bamboo of bamboo, bambulê
Look at the bamboo of bamboo, bambulalá
I want to see you 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 would fit
There were all kinds of cutlery
There were more men than women
But the only thing missing was food, bamboo
At this so-called, aforementioned banquet
Women who had husbands
Didn’t suffer at all, no
Because the hussies, in order not to starve to death
Each one ate her husband
They didn’t get indigestion, bamboo
I know a man who has 17 children
Who put them all in prison
For the police to employ
His wife, with her beauty, still promises
To give birth to seventeen more
And then, finally, stop, bamboo
