歌詞:

[Português]

[English]

Deram-me uma burra

They gave me a donkey

Que era mansa que era brava

One that was gentle and fiery

Toda bem parecida

All nice and pretty

Mas a burra não andava

But the donkey wouldn't move

A burra não andava

The donkey wouldn't move

Nem prá frente nem pra trás

Neither forward nor backward

Muito lhe ralhava

I scolded her a lot

Mas eu não era capaz

But I couldn't do it

Eu não era capaz

I couldn't do it

De fazer a burra andar

To make the donkey walk

Passava do meio dia

It was noon already

E eu a desesperar

And I was in despair

E eu a desesperar

And I was in despair

Ai, que desespero o meu

Oh, what a frustration mine

Falhei-lhe no burrico

I failed her with the little donkey

E a burra até correu

And the donkey even ran away

...

Deram-me uma burra

They gave me a donkey

Que era mansa que era brava

One that was gentle and fiery

Toda bem parecida

All nice and pretty

Mas a burra não andava

But the donkey wouldn't move

A burra não andava

The donkey wouldn't move

Nem prá frente nem pra trás

Neither forward nor backward

Muito lhe ralhava

I scolded her a lot

Mas eu não era capaz

But I couldn't do it

Eu não era capaz

I couldn't do it

De fazer a burra andar

To make the donkey walk

Passava do meio dia

It was noon already

E eu a desesperar

And I was in despair

E eu a desesperar

And I was in despair

Ai, que desespero o meu

Oh, what a frustration mine

Falhei-lhe no burrico

I failed her with the little donkey

E a burra até correu

And the donkey even ran away
