Original text with translation
Clara Nunes
Ontem estive no morro
E voltei chorando meu povo sofrendo
Crianças penando…
Morro sem malandro que já tem senhor (Vejam só)
Disseram que compraram o morro
Estão derrubando os barracos de zinco
Estão se acabando
Pra morar no morro tem que ser doutor
Mudaram o meu povo pra longe, bem distante
Aonde Deus não faz morada
Que culpa tenho eu se nasci pobre
Se não posso levar vida de nobre
Meu salário não dá se quer pra alimentar
E as crianças não entendem o porque
Que eu nada mais posso oferecer
E nem eu posso entender
Mais um dia
Hei de ver o meu povo feliz à cantar
Lalalalalalala… bis
Yesterday I was on the hill
And I came back crying my people suffering
Children grieving…
I die without a rogue who already has a lord (Look at that)
They said they bought the hill
They are tearing down the zinc shacks
are running out
To live on the hill you have to be a doctor
They moved my people far, far away
Where God does not dwell
What's my fault if I was born poor
If I can't lead a noble life
My salary is not even enough to feed
And children don't understand why
That I can offer nothing else
And even I can't understand
One more day
I must see my happy people singing
Lalalalalalala… bis
