Текст и перевод песни Quarteto Em Cy - 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 um 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 deste 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

John and Mary

Now I was the hero
And my horse only spoke English
The cowboy's bride
It was you
Besides the other three
I faced the battalions
The Germans and their cannons
Kept my slingshot ready
And rehearsed a rock song
For the matinees

Now I was the king
I was the beadle and I was also the judge
And by my law
We were obligated to be happy
And you were the princess
That I had crowned
And you were so beautiful to admire
That you walked naked throughout my country

No, no, don't run away
Pretend that now I was your toy
I was your top
Your favorite animal
Yes, give me your hand
Now we were no longer afraid
In the time of evil
I don't think we were even born

Now it was inevitable
That the make-believe would end this way
Beyond that backyard
Was a night that has no end
Because you disappeared into the world
Without warning me
And now I was a madman asking
What does life have in store for me
