Текст и перевод песни Various Artists - João E Maria

João E Maria

Agora eu era o herói
E o meu cavalo só falava inglês
A noiva do cowboy
Era você
Além das outras três
Eu enfrentava os batalhões
Os alemães e seus canhões
Guardava o meu bodoque
E ensaiava o rock
Para as matinês
Agora eu era o rei
Era o bedel e era também juiz
E pela minha lei
A gente era obrigada a ser feliz
E você era a princesa
Que eu fiz coroar
E era tão linda de se admirar

Que andava nua pelo meu país
Não, não fuja não
Finja que agora eu era o seu brinquedo
Eu era o seu pião
O seu bicho preferido
Sim, me dê a mão
A gente agora já não tinha medo
No tempo da maldade
Acho que a gente nem tinha nascido
Agora era fatal
Que o faz-de-conta terminasse assim
Pra lá desse quintal
Era uma noite que não tem mais fim
Pois você sumiu no mundo
Sem me avisar
E agora eu era um louco a perguntar
O que é que a vida vai fazer de mim

João E Maria

Now I was the hero
And my horse only spoke English
The cowboy's bride
Was you
Besides the other three
I faced the battalions
The Germans and their cannons
I put away my slingshot
And rehearsed the rock
For the matinees
Now I was the king
I was the beadle and I was also the judge
And by my law
We were forced to be happy
And you were the princess
That I crowned
And she was so beautiful to admire

That she walked naked through my country
No, don't run away
Pretend that now I was your toy
I was your top
Your favorite animal
Yes, give me your hand
We were no longer afraid
In the time of wickedness
I don't think we were even born
Now it was fatal
That the make-believe ended like this
Beyond that yard
It was a night that never ends
Because you disappeared into the world
Without warning me
And now I was a madman asking
What is life going to do with me
