Upa, Neguinho [English translation]

(scat) Patapatri

Tri tri tri tri

Tri Badabá!

Up, little black one on the street

Up, from one side to the other

Holy Mother of God!

Such a beautiful thing!

Up, little black one

Starting to walk

Starting to walk

Up, little black one on the street

Up, from one side to the other

Holy Mother of God!

Such a beautiful thing!

Up, little black one

Starting to walk

Starting to walk

Starting to walk

And he already starts to suffer

Grow, black little one

And embrace me

Grow and teach me to sing

I

come from so much misfortune

But I can teach you a lot

But I can teach you a lot

Capoeira!

I can teach

Sheer bad luck!

I can take away

Courage!

I can lend

But freedom

I can only wait

(scat) Patapatri

Tri tri tri tri

Tri Badabá!
