Lyrics
Jesualda parou com o morro
Pois ela estava no alto, mas não estava por cima
Moça simpática, prendada, ano ginasial completo
Toda certinha, ainda donzela
Pra ninguém botar defeito, cheia de afeto
Desceu pra ver de perto o asfalto quente
Sentir a brisa e a água salgada do mar
Molhando seu corpo delgado
Procurou um emprego e achou
Foi trabalhar num duplex na zona sul
De cozinheira de forno e fogão
Lalalalá, lalá, la lá
Lalalalá, lalá, la lá
Na flor da idade, tão pura tão linda tão meiga
No ponto do ônibus, num domingo à tarde
Sua felicidade pintou
Pois um moço simpático que ia no seu carro meio apressado
Com bandeira e tudo, com bandeira e tudo ao Maracanã
No que olhou pro lado, parou, saltou levou um papo
E a linda simpática donzela ele amarrou
Hoje, Jesualda é feliz
Casou de véu e grinalda e agora espera baby
Espera baby no exterior
Espera baby no exterior
Salve simpatia
Lalalalá, lalá, lá
Toca pa Jesualda
Lalá, la lá
Jesualda merece
Lalalalá, lalá
Lyrics translation
Jesualda stopped with the hill
For she was on top, but she was not on top
Nice girl, tied, full gymnastic year
All right, still maiden
For no one to put defect, full of affection
Went down to see up close the hot asphalt
Feel the sea breeze and salt water
Wetting your slender body
He looked for a job and found
He went to work in a duplex in the South Zone
Of oven and stove cook
Lalalala, lalala, la there
Lalalala, lalala, la there
In the flower of age, so pure so beautiful so sweet
At the bus stop on a Sunday afternoon
Your happiness painted
For a nice boy who was going in his car half hurried
With flag and everything, with flag and everything to Maracanã
In what looked pro side, stopped, jumped took a chat
And the beautiful nice maiden he tied
Today, Jesualda is happy
Married veil and wreath and now wait baby
Baby waiting abroad
Baby waiting abroad
Hello sympathy
Lalalala, lalala, there
Play Pa Jesualda
Lala, la there
Jesualda deserves
Lalalala, lalala
