Marisa Monte - O Xote Das Meninas
(Z Dantas - Luis Gonzaga)
Mandakaru quando fulor na seca
E um sin que a chuva chega no serto
Toda menina que enja da boneca
sinal de que o amor j chegou no corao
Meia comprida no quer mais sapato baixo
Vestido bem cintado no quer mais vestir gibo
Ela s quer s pensa em namorar
De manh cedo j t pintada
S vive suspirando sonhando acordada
O pai leva ao doutor a filha adoentada
No come nem estuda no dorme nem quer nadaMarisa Monte - O Xote Das Meninas - http://motolyrics.com/marisa-monte/o-xote-das-meninas-lyrics-english-translation.html
Ela s quer s pensa em namorar
Ela s quer s pensa em namorar
Ela s quer s pensa em namorar
Mas o doutor nem examina
Chamando o pai do lado
Lhe diz logo em surdina
Que o mal da idade
E que pra tal menina
No h um s remdio
Em toda medicina
Ela s quer
Ela s pensa em namorar
Marisa Monte - O xote das Meninas (English translation)
When mandacaru flourishes in the desert...
... it's a sign that the rain has come in Sertão
when a girl becomes bored of dolls...
... it's a sign that love has come into her heart
(She only wants to wear) Long sockings
She doesn't want to wear low shoes anymore
(She only wants to wear) Tight dresses
[/b]She doesn't want to wear timão[/b]
She only wants... (... to fall in love)
She only thinks about falling in love
She only wants... (... to fall in love)
She only thinks about falling in love
Early in the morning, she's already made up
and is always sighing...
...and daydreaming
The father takes the diseased daughter to the doctor
She doesn't eat, neither studies anymoreMarisa Monte - O Xote Das Meninas - http://motolyrics.com/marisa-monte/o-xote-das-meninas-lyrics-english-translation.html
She doesn't sleep, she wants (to do) nothing
She only wants... (... to fall in love)
She only thinks about falling in love
She only wants... (... to fall in love)
She only thinks about falling in love
But the doctor doesn't even examinate her
He calls the father in private
Right away he tells him softly...
... that it's a sickness of her age
... that, for such a girl
... there doesn't exist any remedy
... throuhought Medicine
She only wants... (... to fall in love)
She only thinks about falling in love
She only wants... (... to fall in love)
She only thinks about falling in love
