Bela Cigana [English translation]

Come on, remove this cloak of fear

Show me your palm and I'll reveal a secret

I will, my brother, teach you to drink from the spring

To walk the trails of the hills

Where tomorrow a new sun will rise

Yes, in this life no one runs out of fear

It's just the opposit, those who ran away became cowards

Go, my brother, tear the papers where your masterpiece samba

Steer your boat away from the old rocks

Sooner or later you'll see I was right

That's what the beautiful gypsy told me

Who wore golden earrings, who had a great lady's bearing

Who had life and death deep in her eyes

She read my palm, blessed me and took my money

But that gypsy doesn't know maybe

She rescued my sailboat from the depths of the ocean

That's what the beautiful gypsy told me

Who wore golden earrings, who had a great lady's bearing

Who had life and death deep in her eyes

She read my palm, blessed me and took my money

But that gypsy doesn't know maybe

She rescued my sailboat from the depths of the ocean
