Porto Alegre [English translation]

Tied to the mast of a ship,

Covering the ears with my hands,

I could resist

the charm of sirens

I did not hear

the call of sirens

I resisted it

But as soon as I had reached the banks,

I did not do that again

And so, I fell

Into the arms of Calypso

I succumbed

To the charm of Calypso

I could not resist it

Ever since, I have had

No more vices,

Apart from dancing

To the rythm of Calypso

Because I fell

In love with Calypso

I could not resist

The charm of Calypso

All I want is to dance

To the rhythm of Calypso

Calypso
