These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Caminheiro sem destino
Walkman without destination
O destino é deus quem dá
Fate is god who gives
Sempre em paz comigo mesmo
Always at peace with myself
Coração só pra cantar
Heart just to sing
Um xamego hoje aqui
A xamego here today
Amanhã, um dengo acolá
Tomorrow, a dengo there
E o pó das estrada apagando
And the dust of the road erasing
Os xodós que eu tive por lá
The xodós I had there
Foi entonce que ela surgiu
It was entonce that it arose
Tava escrito orélia chegar
Tava written orélia arrive
Orélia, ai, ai, orélia
Orelia, ai, ai, orélia
Só de olhar teu olhar magneto
Just looking at your magneto look
Vi logo o meu fim
I saw my end right away
Que paixão, foi um choque da peste
What a passion, it was a shock of the plague
Meu corpo tremeu que nem curumim
My body trembled like curumim
Orélia, ai, ai, orélia
Orelia, ai, ai, orélia
Ai, bichinha, se tu me deixar
Ai,, if you leave me
Vai ser muito ruim
It's going to be really bad
Faço arte no leste e no oeste
I make art in the east and the west
No sul, no nordeste
In the south, in the northeast
Dou cabo de mim
I'll kick my ass
