A Festa Lyrics in English Maria Rita
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song A Festa by Maria Rita from Portuguese to English.
Já falei tantas vezes
I've said so many times
Do verde nos teus olhos
About the green in your eyes
Todos os sentimentos me tocam a alma
All the feelings touch my soul
Alegria ou tristeza
Joy or sadness
Se espalhando no campo, no canto, no gesto
Spreading in the field, in the song, in the gesture
No sonho, na vida
In the dream, in life
Mas agora é o balanço
But now it's the rhythm
Essa dança nos toma
This dance takes us over
Esse som nos abraça, meu amor
This sound embraces us, my love
O teu corpo moreno
Your brown body
Vai abrindo caminhos
Is opening paths
Acelera meu peito
Makes my heart race
Nem acredito no sonho que vejo
I can't even believe the dream I see
E seguimos dançando
And we keep dancing
Um balanço malandro
A mischievous rhythm
E tudo rodando
And everything spinning
Parece que o mundo foi feito pra nós
It seems the world was made for us
Nesse som que nos toca
In this sound that touches us
Me abraça, me aperta
Embrace me, squeeze me
Me prende em tuas pernas
Hold me in your legs
Me prende, me força, me roda, me encanta
Hold me, compel me, spin me, enchant me
Me enfeita num beijo
Adorn me with a kiss
Me abraça, me aperta
Embrace me, squeeze me
Me prende em tuas pernas
Hold me in your legs
Me prende, me força, me roda, me encanta
Hold me, compel me, spin me, enchant me
Me enfeita num beijo
Adorn me with a kiss
Pôr do sol e aurora
Sunset and dawn
Norte, sul, leste, oeste
North, south, east, west
Lua, nuvens, estrelas
Moon, clouds, stars
A banda toca
The band plays
Parece magia
It seems like magic
E é pura beleza
And it's pure beauty
E essa música sente
And this music feels
E parece que a gente
And it seems like we
Se enrola, corrente
Get entangled, like a current
E tão de repente você tem a mim
And so suddenly you have me
Me abraça, me aperta
Embrace me, squeeze me
Me prende em tuas pernas
Hold me in your legs
Me prende, me força, me roda, me encanta
Hold me, compel me, spin me, enchant me
Me enfeita num beijo
Adorn me with a kiss
Me abraça, me aperta
Embrace me, squeeze me
Me prende em tuas pernas
Hold me in your legs
Me prende, me força, me roda, me encanta
Hold me, compel me, spin me, enchant me
Me enfeita num beijo
Adorn me with a kiss
Já falei tantas vezes
I've said so many times
Do verde nos teus olhos
About the green in your eyes
Todos os sentimentos me tocam a alma
All the feelings touch my soul
Alegria ou tristeza
Joy or sadness
Se espalhando no campo, no canto, no gesto
Spreading in the field, in the song, in the gesture
No sonho, na vida
In the dream, in life
Mas agora é o balanço
But now it's the rhythm
Essa dança nos toma
This dance takes us over
Você tem a mim
You have me

Did you like this lyrics translation?
malandro — rascal / mischievous
Malandro is a fascinating word in Portuguese, often translated as 'rascal' or 'mischievous'. However, it carries a much richer cultural connotation, often referring to someone who is street-smart, cunning, and charming, capable of navigating life's challenges with wit and resourcefulness.
In the song, Maria Rita sings about a "balanço malandro" (a mischievous sway or rhythm). This suggests a dance that is not just playful but also a bit sly, seductive, and full of a unique Brazilian flair, making the word particularly enticing and culturally significant.
