Menina Atrevida

Before the marketplace street
I saw my love passing by
Beautiful and so charming
Her gaze teasing me

Girl, take a thousand cares
For hereabouts there are fellows hunting
Girl, you are so daring
Fearless of life, oh, to joke around

Now go twirling around
Now go with your little ways
Each one with their love
Oh, to dance this little dance
Now go twirling around
Now go with your little ways
Each one with their love
Oh, to dance this little dance

In the riverside market
There's a side that is very rich
The girls go there for shopping
But they leave with their little flirtations

Girl, it's not a good thing
To wander about enchanting
Young men like me
Leave school to court you

Now go twirling around
Now go with your little ways
Each one with their love
Oh, to dance this little dance
Now go twirling around
Now go with your little ways
Each one with their love
Oh, to dance this little dance

I don't know how you manage
To have the whole crowd bewitched
Don't you see that the poor lads
Think of nothing else

One day, daring girl
No matter how much you flee
And no matter what you do
You're in a street with no exit
Today is your day, tomorrow is the hunt's

Now go twirling around
Now go with your little ways
Each one with their love
Oh, to dance this little dance
Now go twirling around
Now go with your little ways
Each one with their love
Oh, to dance this little dance

Now go twirling around
Now go with your little ways
Each one with their love
Oh, to dance this little dance
Now go twirling around
Now go with your little ways
Each one with their love
Oh, to dance this little dance
