Escurinha [English translation]

Pretty girl*, you have to be mine

In anyway

I give you my pub

I give you my poor and humble shanty

In the Morro da Mangueira**

I am not prissy

Come on and I make you my love

The Queen of drums section***

Because your sweetie (himself) is director!

My shanty has four cob wall

Tin roof

Floor on the ground

I just need you, sweetie

In my shanty

Give up of this, ninny

Just with this insignificant life

Come with me

I take you to the Samba

I teach you how to dance samba

I make you the best one!
