Quadrilha

And this year, like every year, once a year
There's a square dance at the festivity
And this year, as always
Except for rain and mistake
The satisfaction is general
Don't take it the wrong way, don't take it the wrong way
Don't take it the wrong way, don't take it the wrong way

The forró was running smoothly, without problem or embarrassment
When the leader of the square dance decreed to change partners
The sheriff's wife surrendered to the lawyer
The cowboy lassoed the young daughter of the colonel

Terezinha Crediário took a step with the vicar
The devout woman with the sacristan
It's said that the mayor's wife
Deservedly elected
Went with the opposition leader
It's nothing, it's nothing
It's nothing, it's nothing

Zé-com-fome laid eyes on
