Vai Meu Samba Lyrics in English Maria Rita
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Vai Meu Samba by Maria Rita from Portuguese to English.
Vai meu samba
Go, my samba
Vai dizer à vida
Go tell life
Que a ferida não cicatrizou
That the wound hasn't healed
E eu ainda estou naquela
And I'm still in that state
Que a saudade dela
That the longing for her
Me deixou
Left me in
E eu, ah e eu, ainda estou naquela
And I, oh and I, am still in that state
Que a saudade dela
That the longing for her
Me deixou
Left me in
Vai meu samba, pelo amor de Deus
Go, my samba, for God's sake
Diz que depois do adeus
Say that after the goodbye
É que eu fiquei assim
Is when I became like this
Vai meu samba, vai
Go, my samba, go
Deixa o sol bater
Let the sun shine
Só pro mundo ver
Just for the world to see
O que restou de mim
What's left of me
Vai meu samba, vai
Go, my samba, go
Deixa o sol bater
Let the sun shine
Só pro mundo ver
Just for the world to see
O que restou de mim
What's left of me
Vai meu samba
Go, my samba
Vai dizer à vida
Go tell life
Que a ferida não cicatrizou
That the wound hasn't healed
E eu ainda estou naquela
And I'm still in that state
Que a saudade dela
That the longing for her
Me deixou
Left me in
Vai meu samba, pelo amor de Deus
Go, my samba, for God's sake
Diz que depois do adeus
Say that after the goodbye
É que eu fiquei assim
Is when I became like this
Vai meu samba, vai
Go, my samba, go
Deixa o sol bater
Let the sun shine
Só pro mundo ver
Just for the world to see
O que restou de mim
What's left of me
Vai meu samba, vai
Go, my samba, go
Deixa o sol bater
Let the sun shine
Só pro mundo ver
Just for the world to see
O que restou de mim
What's left of me
Vai meu samba
Go, my samba

Did you like this lyrics translation?
cicatrizou — healed (past tense)
Cicatrizou comes from the verb cicatrizar, meaning "to heal" or "to scar over." It's a vivid and somewhat less common verb in everyday conversation, making it stand out.
In the context of the song, the lyrics state, "Que a ferida não cicatrizou" (That the wound did not heal). This powerful imagery conveys deep emotional pain and longing, suggesting that the singer's heartbreak is still fresh and unresolved, despite the passage of time. It's a poignant way to express enduring sorrow.
