Razão De Sambar Lyrics in English Tim Maia
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Razão De Sambar by Tim Maia from Portuguese to English.
É terça-feira, é quarta-feira, é quinta-feira
It's Tuesday, it's Wednesday, it's Thursday
Todo mundo quer sambar
Everybody wants to samba
Esquecem tudo, esquecem a vida, esquecem a morte
They forget everything, they forget life, they forget death
Esquecem o que devem fazer
They forget what they should do
Parecem loucos, mas aos poucos você vai chegando à mesma
They seem crazy, but little by little you'll reach the same
Conclusão
Conclusion
Que dessa vida não se leva, só se deixa
That from this life you don't take, you only leave
E por isso eu dou razão
And that's why I agree
Para os que pulam, os que dançam, os que sambam
With those who jump, those who dance, those who samba
A noite inteira sem parar
All night long without stopping
Por isso mesmo vou pegar meu violão
That's why I'm going to grab my guitar
E vou pro samba, vou sambar
And I'm going to the samba, I'm going to samba
Vou sambar (várias vezes)
I'm going to samba
