Menina das favelas, en tu cara puedo ver
Menina das favelas, in your face I can see
que el mundo no es como debe de ser
that the world is not as it should be
que Dios seguramente no es una mujer....
that God surely is not a woman...
Chiquita das favelas no pares de reir
Chiquita das favelas don't stop laughing
con tan poco eres feliz, aún no sabes sufrir,
you are happy with so little, you still don't know how to suffer,
sólo eres una niña aprendiendo a vivir
you're just a girl learning to live
Menina das favelas a la luz de la vela
Menina das favelas by candlelight
juegas con tu sombra, saltas a la comba
you play with your shadow, you jump rope
me pides que te cuente un cuento de duendes,
You ask me to tell you a fairy tale,
antes de ir a dormir...
before going to sleep...
Chiquita das favelas tantas noches sin cena
Chiquita das favelas so many nights without dinner
el mundo da una vuelta indiferente a tu condena
the world turns indifferent to your condemnation
bailas una samba, medicina pal alma
you dance a samba, medicine for the soul
why no pares de reir, de reir...
and don't stop laughing, laughing...
Menina das favelas pronto serás una mujer
Menina das favelas soon you will be a woman
te ha tocado perder, nada puedes hacer,
she has had to lose, nothing you can do,
tampoco has elegido el color de tu piel...
You haven't chosen the color of your skin either...
Chiquita das favelas en tu cara puedo ver
Chiquita das favelas in your face I can see
que el mundo no es como debe de ser
that the world is not as it should be
que Dios seguramente no es una mujer....
that God surely is not a woman...
Menina das favelas a la luz de la vela
Menina das favelas by candlelight
