Paroles et traduction Orlando Silva - Alegria

Alegria

Alegria
Pra cantar a batucada
As morenas vão sambar
Tem samba, tem alegria
Minha gente
Era triste amargurada
Que inventou a batucada
Pra deixar de padecer
Salve o prazer, salve o prazer
Da tristeza não quero saber
A tristeza me faz padecer
Vou deixar a cruel Nostalgia
Vou fazer batucada de noite e de dia, vou cantar
Alegria
Pra cantar a batucada
As morenas vão sambar
Tem samba, tem alegria
Minha gente
Era triste amargurada
Que inventou a batucada
Pra deixar de padecer
Salve o prazer, salve o prazer
Esperando a felicidade
Para ver que eu vou melhorar
Vou cantando, fingindo alegria
Para a humanidade não me ver chorar

Joy

Joy
For the samba beat
Brunettes will dance
There is samba, there is joy
My people
It was sad and bitter
Who invented the samba beat
To leave behind the suffering
Praise pleasure, praise pleasure
I don't want to know about sadness
Sadness makes me suffer
I'm going to leave cruel nostalgia behind
I'm going to drum day and night, I'm going to sing
Joy
For the samba beat
Brunettes will dance
There is samba, there is joy
My people
It was sad and bitter
Who invented the samba beat
To leave behind the suffering
Praise pleasure, praise pleasure
Waiting for happiness
When I'll feel better
I'm singing, pretending I'm joyful
So that humanity won't see me cry
