Na hora da agonia
In the hour of agony
Eu pergunto
I ask
Cadê os meus amigos, meus camaradas, meus pareceiros?
Where are my friends, my comrades, my peers?
Na hora que eu mais necessito deles não acho um
When I need them most I can't find one
O Zé tá pra São Paulo
Zé is in São Paulo
E Pedro morreu
And Peter died
Até o Biu desapareceu
Even Biu disappeared
Chico Careca, já cansei de bater na casa da esquina e nem
Chico Careca, I'm tired of knocking on the house on the corner and I don't even
Já é quase noite e o negão num açoite
It's almost night and the black guy is being flogged
Na boca do beco vai aparecer
At the mouth of the alley will appear
E eu vou ter que encarar
And I'll have to face
E não posso perder, que a crioula vai ver
And I can't lose, because the black girl will see
Tomei decisão
I made a decision
Como último tiro
As a last shot
Gritei num suspiro
I screamed in a sigh
Ganhei o bolão
I won the prize
E não tenho um irmão
And I don't have a brother
Com quem possa gastar!
Who can spend it on!
De repentemente a turma pintou
Suddenly the class painted
Com sorriso nos dentes
With a smile on your teeth
Me dizendo contente
Telling me happy
Deixa isso com a gente!
Leave it to us!
No final do barato, eu ganhei do negão
At the end of the bargain, I beat the black guy
E, sem grana na mão
And, with no money in hand
A turma me ganhou
The gang beat me
Quando sacou o grupo
When the group was removed
E hoje a crioula está de luto
And today the Creole is in mourning
No final do barato, eu ganhei do negão
At the end of the bargain, I beat the black guy
E, sem grana na mão
And, with no money in hand
A turma me ganhou
The gang beat me
Quando sacou o grupo
When the group was removed
E hoje a crioula está de luto
And today the Creole is in mourning
E hoje a crioula está de luto, ê!
And today the Creole is in mourning, yeah!
E hoje a crioula está de luto
And today the Creole is in mourning
