Geni e o Zepelim [English translation]

Of all that is not straight

From the mangrove and harbour pier

She was once a girlfriend

Her body belongs to the vagrants

To the blind, the deadbeats

To who has nothing left.

She has given herself such since a girl

In the garage, in the canteen

Behind the tank, in the bushes

She is the queen of the detainees

The crazy ones, the social dregs

Of the urchins of the orphanage

And she also goes often

With old meningitis poor health

And widows without a future

She is a well of goodness

And that is why the city

Always repeats

Throw a stone at Geni

Throw a stone at Geni

She is made to be beaten

She's good to spit on

She gives herself to anybody

Damn Geni

One day came, brilliant

Between the clouds, floating

A huge zeppelin

Hovered over the buildings

Opened two thousand holes

With two thousand cannons

The terrified city

Transfixed paralysed

Ready to turn to jelly

But from the giant zeppelin

Its Commander descended

Saying: "I've changed my mind"

When I saw this city

So much horror and iniquity

I resolved to blow everything

But I can avoid the drama

If that beautiful lady

Serves me tonight

That lady was Geni

But it can't be Geni

She is made to be beaten

She's good to spit on

She gives herself to anybody

Damn Geni

But in fact, soon she

So forlorn and so simple

Will captivate the stranger

The showy warrior

So feared and powerful

He was her prisoner

It turns out that the maiden

(And that was her secret)

Also had her whims

And instead of laying with such a noble man

So smelling of brightness and covers

Would prefer to make love to animals

On hearing such a heresy

The city as if on pilgrimage

Went to kiss her hand

The mayor on his knees

The red-eyed bishop

And the banker with his millions

Go with him, go, Geni

Go with him, go, Geni

You can save us

You will redeem us

You give yourself to anyone

Blessed Geni

There were so many requests

So sincere, so heartfelt

That she mastered her disgust

In that harrowing night

She gave herself to such a lover

As one who surrenders to the hangman

He made such a mess

Over-indulged all night

Until he was sated

And it was not yet dawn

When he left in a cold cloud

With his silver Zeppelin

In a relieved sigh

She turned sideways

And even tried to smile

But the day soon dawned

And the city in chorus

Did not let her sleep

Throw a stone at Geni

Throw shit on Geni

She's made to be beaten

She's good to spit on

She gives herself to anybody

Damn Geni

Throw a stone at Geni

Throw shit on Geni

She's made fro be beaten

She's good to spit on

She gives herself to anybody

Damn Geni
