These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Do ventre chão da terra mãe
From the floor of the mother earth
Nasce o herói improvisado
The improvised hero is born
Querido filho pranteado da fortuna e do acaso
Dear mourning child of fortune and chance
Avante, um por todos e todos por um
Forward, one for all and all for one
Ficam das lutas ao longe
Stay away from the fights
Duas medalhas pregadas em peitos de bronze
Two medals nailed to bronze chests
E as bandeirinhas e as rifas
And the flags and the raffles
O foguetório e a fanfarra
The fireworks and the fanfare
Meio velório, meio farra
Half wake, half party
O sentimento dos teus pares
The feeling of your peers
Herói dos escolares e das lavadeiras
Hero of schoolchildren and washerwomen
Ó Deus das moças solteiras
O God of single girls
Que rezam ao teu retrato sobre a penteadeira
Who pray to your portrait on the dressing table
Eu te conheço, sei o preço da fama
I know you, I know the price of fame
E não esqueço
And I don't forget
Que deitei em tua cama em teu berço
That I laid in your bed in your crib
Eu sei teu preço, eu te conheço
I know your price, I know you
Meu oportuno herói
My timely hero
Eu lavo as mãos, Pôncio cônscio pilhado em flagrante
I wash my hands, Pontius aware caught in the act
Lavo as mãos e prossigo adiante
I wash my hands and move on
Eu por mim mesma
Me by myself
Todos por mim, meu oportuno herói
All for me, my timely hero
