Текст и перевод песни Quarteto Em Cy - Mascarada

Mascarada

Vejo agora esse teu lindo olhar
Olhar que eu sonhei
E sonhei conquistar
E que num dia afinal conquistei, enfim

Findou-se o carnaval
E só nos carnavais
Encontrava-me sem
Encontrar este teu lindo olhar, porque

O poeta era eu
Cujas rimas eram compostas
Na esperança de que
Tirasses essa máscara
Que sempre me fez mal
Mal que findou só
Depois do carnaval

Desengano deixei a dor em casa
Me esperando
E brinquei e brinquei
E fui vestido de rei
E quarta-feira sempre desce o pano
Carnaval desengano
Essa morena me deixou sem ano
Mão na mão, pé no chão
Hoje nem lembra não quarta-feira
Sempre desce o pano
Era só uma canção que desse vontade
De tomar a mão e de cada irmão pela cidade
O carnaval esperança
Que gente longe vem na lembrança
Gente triste possa entrar na dança
Gente grande saiba ser criança
O carnaval, o carnaval
O carnaval, o carnaval

Masquerade

Now I see your beautiful gaze
The gaze I'd dreamt of
And dreamt of conquering
And that one day I finally conquered, at last

The carnival is over
And only during carnivals
I found myself without
Finding your beautiful gaze, because

The poet was me
Whose rhymes were composed
In the hope that
You would remove the mask
That had always hurt me
The pain that ended only
After the carnival

Disillusionment left the pain at home
Waiting for me
And I played and I played
And I was dressed as a king
And on Wednesday the curtain always falls
Carnival disappointment
That brunette has left me lost for a year
Hand in hand, feet on the ground
Today it doesn't even feel like Wednesday
The curtain always falls
It was just a song that inspired me
To take the hand of each brother and sister through the town
The carnival of hope
The people who come from far away in my memories
May those who are sad enter the dance
May the adults know how to be children
The carnival, the carnival
The carnival, the carnival
