Lyrics
Ai, barracão
Pendurado no morro
E pedindo socorro
À cidade a seus pés
Ai, barracão
Tua voz eu escuto
Não te esqueço um minuto
Porque sei
Que tu és
Barracão de zinco
Tradição do meu país
Barracão de zinco
Pobretão infeliz…
Ai, barracão
Pendurado no morro
E pedindo socorro
Ai, a cidade
A seus pés
Barracão de zinco
Barracão de zinco
Lyrics translation
Oh, Shack.
Hanging on the hill
And asking for help
To the city at your feet
Oh, Shack.
Your voice I hear
I won't forget you for a minute
Because I know
That you are
Zinc shed
Tradition of my country
Zinc shed
Poor wretch…
Oh, Shack.
Hanging on the hill
And asking for help
Alas, the city
At your feet
Zinc shed
Zinc shed
