Vira Vira Lyrics in English by D.a.M.A, Victor Rodrigues
Bailarico is a charming and somewhat informal word that refers to a small, often impromptu, dance party or social gathering centered around dancing.
It's a diminutive of bailar (to dance) and baile (a dance/ball), adding a sense of intimacy and casual fun. In the song, the narrator observes the person they admire at these bailaricos, highlighting a recurring social event where their affection grows.
Get ready to dance with D.A.M.A and Victor Rodrigues's "Vira Vira"! This song is all about that feeling when you're at a party, maybe a traditional Portuguese bailarico (dance party), and there's someone special who has totally caught your eye.
The singer is clearly smitten, watching this person spin around in the dance circle, wishing they could be their partner. He's thinking, "Moça, vira, vira / Que eu também quero virar" [Girl, turn, turn / Because I also want to turn], just wanting a chance to join in and get close. He's dreaming about a kiss, wondering "O gosto que o teu beijo tem" [What your kiss tastes like]. It's a sweet, slightly longing tune about waiting for your moment to shine and hoping that "a sorte vai virar" [luck will turn] in your favor, even if it means chasing them "De Lisboa à Miranda ou à Praga / Até à França eu te ia buscar" [From Lisbon to Miranda or Prague / I would even go to France to get you]!
