These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Foi lindo de ver a Portela
It was beautiful to see Portela
O sol raiando
the sun rising
Elegante amanhecer
elegant dawn
Seu canto ecoou na passarela
His song echoed on the catwalk
Auê auê salve o samba, salve ela
Auê auê save the samba, save her
Quem nunca se perdeu em tantos carnavais
Who never got lost in so many carnivals
Sentimento bom, sonho, alegria e paz
Good feeling, dream, joy and peace
Que me seduziu causou profunda emoção
That seduced me caused deep emotion
Voei nas asas, confortei meu coração
I flew on wings, comforted my heart
Foi lindo de ver a Portela
It was beautiful to see Portela
O sol raiando
the sun rising
Elegante amanhecer
elegant dawn
Seu canto ecoou na passarela
His song echoed on the catwalk
Auê auê salve o samba, salve ela
Auê auê save the samba, save her
Quem nunca se perdeu em tantos carnavais
Who never got lost in so many carnivals
Sentimento bom, sonho, alegria e paz
Good feeling, dream, joy and peace
Que me seduziu causou profunda emoção
That seduced me caused deep emotion
Voei nas asas, confortei meu coração
I flew on wings, comforted my heart
Foi lindo de ver a Portela
It was beautiful to see Portela
O sol raiando
the sun rising
Elegante amanhecer
elegant dawn
Seu canto ecoou na passarela
His song echoed on the catwalk
Auê auê salve o samba, salve ela
Auê auê save the samba, save her
Auê auê salve o samba, salve ela
Auê auê save the samba, save her
Auê auê salve o samba, salve ela
Auê auê save the samba, save her

Foi lindo de ver

Mil contos pra contar
A thousand tales to tell
Mil cantos pra cantar, tanta beleza
A thousand songs to sing, so much beauty
A Portela é tantos quintais em flor
Portela is so many backyards in bloom
A tradição no amor
The tradition in love
A natureza é ela
nature is her
Foi lindo
It was beautiful
Foi lindo de ver
It was beautiful to see
Foi lindo
It was beautiful
Foi lindo, foi lindo de ver
It was beautiful, it was beautiful to see
Foi lindo de ver
It was beautiful to see
Foi lindo de ver
