Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Poder da Criaçao by João Nogueira from Portuguese to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Não, ninguem faz samba só porque prefere
No, no one does samba just because they prefer
Força nenhuma no mundo interfere
No force in the world interferes
Sobre o poder da criação
About the power of creation
Não, não precisa se estar nem feliz nem aflito
No, you don't have to be happy or distressed
Nem se refugiar em lugar mais bonito
Nor take refuge in a more beautiful place
Em busca da inspiração
In search of inspiration
Não, ela é uma luz que chega de repente
No, she's a light that comes suddenly
Com a rapidez de uma estrela cadente
With the speed of a shooting star
Que acende a mente e o coração
That lights the mind and the heart
É faz pensar que existe uma força maior que nos guia
It's makes us think that there's a greater force that guides us
Que está no ar
That's in the air
Bem no meio da noite ou no claro do dia
Right in the middle of the night or in the light of day
Chega a nos angustiar
It gets to distress us
E o poeta se deixa levar por essa magia
And the poet gets carried away by this magic
E o verso vem vindo e vem vindo uma melodia
And the verse comes and comes a melody
E o povo começa a cantar, lá laia laiá
And the people begin to sing, there iala laiá
Lá lá laía laiá
There laía laiá
