Feitiço da Vila
Noel Rosa
Village Spell
Who is born there in the Village
Doesn't even hesitate
To embrace the samba
That makes the branches dance
Of the trees and makes the Moon
Rise earlier
There, in Vila Isabel
Who is a graduate
Is not afraid of the samba
São Paulo gives coffee
Minas gives milk
And Vila Isabel gives samba
The village has a spell without fuss
Without candle and without a penny
That does us good
Having the name of a princess
Transformed the samba
Into a decent spell
That captivates us
The Sun of the Village is sad
Doesn't watch the samba
Because we beg
Sun, for the love of God
Don't come now
Or the brunettes
Will soon leave
I know where I go
I know everything I do
Passion doesn't destroy me
But, I have to say
Modesty aside
Gentlemen
I am from the Village!
The calmest area
Is our village!
The cradle of the carefree
There is no lock on the gate
Because, in the village, there are no thieves
The Village has a spell without fuss
Without candle and without a penny
That does us good
Having the name of a princess
Transformed the samba
Into a decent spell
That captivates us
