Текст и перевод песни Clara Nunes & Roberto Ribeiro - Coisa da Antiga

Coisa da Antiga

Na tina vovó lavou, vovó lavou
A roupa que mamãe vestiu quando foi batizada
E mamãe quando era menina teve que passar, teve que passar
Muita fumaça e calor no ferro de engomar

E mamãe quando era menina teve que passar, teve que passar
Muita fumaça e calor no ferro de engomar

Hoje mamãe me falou de vovó, só de vovó
Disse que no tempo dela era bem melhor
Mesmo agachada na tina e soprando no ferro de carvão
Tinha-se mais amizade e mais consideração

Disse que naquele tempo a palavra de um mero cidadão
Valia mais que hoje em dia uma nota de milhão
Disse afinal que o que é de verdade ninguém mais hoje liga
Isso é coisa da antiga, oi, na tina

Na tina vovó lavou, vovó lavou
A roupa que mamãe vestiu quando foi batizada
E mamãe quando era menina teve que passar, teve que passar
Muita fumaça e calor no ferro de engomar

E mamãe quando era menina teve que passar, teve que passar
Muita fumaça e calor no ferro de engomar

Hoje o olhar de mamãe marejou, só marejou
Quando se lembrou do velho, o meu bisavô
Disse que ele foi escravo, mas não se entregou à escravidão
Sempre vivia fugindo e arrumando confusão

Disse pra mim que essa história do meu bisavô, negro fujão
Devia servir de exemplo a esses nego pai João
Disse afinal que o que é de verdade ninguém mais hoje liga
Isso é coisa da antiga, oi, na tina

Na tina vovó lavou, vovó lavou
A roupa que mamãe vestiu quando foi batizada
E mamãe quando era menina teve que passar, teve que passar
Muita fumaça e calor no ferro de engomar

E mamãe quando era menina teve que passar, teve que passar
Muita fumaça e calor no ferro de engomar
E mamãe quando era menina teve que passar, teve que passar
Muita fumaça e calor no ferro de engomar

E mamãe quando era menina teve que passar, teve que passar
Muita fumaça e calor no ferro de engomar

Old thing

In the tub grandma washed, grandma washed
The clothes mom wore when she was baptized
And mom when she was a girl had to pass, had to pass
A lot of smoke and heat in the Iron

And mom when she was a girl had to pass, had to pass
A lot of smoke and heat in the Iron

Today mom told me about grandma, just grandma
She said that in her time it was much better
Even crouching in the tub and blowing on the coal iron
There was more friendship and more consideration

Said that at that time the word of a mere citizen
It was worth more than a Million Dollar Bill today.
Said after all that what is real no one else today cares
This is the old thing, hi, in tina

In the tub grandma washed, grandma washed
The clothes mom wore when she was baptized
And mom when she was a girl had to pass, had to pass
A lot of smoke and heat in the Iron

And mom when she was a girl had to pass, had to pass
A lot of smoke and heat in the Iron

Today mom's eyes are dizzy, just dizzy
When he remembered the old man, my great-grandfather
Said he was a slave, but did not give himself up to slavery
Always lived running away and making a mess

I told myself that this story of my great-grandfather, black fugão
Should serve as an example to these nego father John
Said after all that what is real no one else today cares
This is the old thing, hi, in tina

In the tub grandma washed, grandma washed
The clothes mom wore when she was baptized
And mom when she was a girl had to pass, had to pass
A lot of smoke and heat in the Iron

And mom when she was a girl had to pass, had to pass
A lot of smoke and heat in the Iron
And mom when she was a girl had to pass, had to pass
A lot of smoke and heat in the Iron

And mom when she was a girl had to pass, had to pass
A lot of smoke and heat in the Iron
