Tá Na Minha Hora [English translation]

I've composed many sambas to you and gave you affection

I unveiled my fantasies slowly

I took care of your omnipotence with affection

And when you arrived late at night on the tip of your toes

Now I must go

I will spend some time at Mangueira1

Don't cry, little guy, don't cry

My heart belongs to Estação Primeira2

The fridge is full and I make you no promises

That as soon as Carnival ends I'll be back

Don't cry, little guy, don't cry

My heart is pink and green 3

Don't cry, little guy, don't cry

I must go now, I must go now
