Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Garconete Da Casa De Fado by Deolinda from Portuguese to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Eu sou brasileira e já arranho o português
I'm Brazilian and I'm already Portuguese
Cheguei vai para uma semana e já me viro com freguês
I arrived going for a week and I already turn with customer
Tem feijão, fava, sardinhas, bacalhau, chouriço assado
There's beans, fava beans, sardines, cod, roasted chorizo
E vá ficando prá noitinha, que vai se cantar o fado
And go on getting away with it, you're going to sing fado
E vá ficando prá noitinha, que vai se cantar o fado
And go on getting away with it, you're going to sing fado
Aiiii, e quando eu escutei cantar
Aiiii, and when I heard sing
Aquele chorinho delicado
That delicate crybaby
Deu uma vontade de pegar
He made a desire to take
Alguém com quem dançar o fado
Someone to dance fado with
Ouça, mas ninguém dança o fado?
Listen, but doesn't anybody dance fado?
Fica aqui e te ouvir
Stay here and listen to you
Puxa mas no brasil casa de fado
Pull sand but in brazil fado house
Não seria mole assim
Wouldn't it be soft like that
No brasil casa de fado
In Brazil fado house
Não seria mole assim
Wouldn't it be soft like that
No brasil casa de fado

Eu sou brasileira e já me entendo com turistas
I'm Brazilian and I already get along with tourists
'please sit at another table, 'cause this one is for fadistas.'
'Please sit at another table, 'cause this one is for fado singers.'
Sou garçonete competente até aviso no palco
I'm a competent waitress until I'm on stage
Peço silêncio minha gente que vai se cantar o fado
I ask silence my people who will sing the fado
Peço silêncio minha gente que vai se cantar o fado
I ask silence my people who will sing the fado
Aiiii e quando eu escutei cantar
Aiiii and when I heard sing
Aquele chorinho delicado
That delicate crybaby
Deu uma vontade de pegar

Alguém com quem dançar o fado
Someone to dance fado with
Ouça, mas ninguém dança o fado?

No brasil casa de fado
