Retalhos de Cetim

I rehearsed my samba all year long,
Bought a surdo and tamborim.
I spent everything on costumes,
It was all I wanted.
And she swore to parade for me

My school was so beautiful.
It was everything I wanted to see,
In satin scraps
I slept the whole year,
And she swore to parade for me.

Chorus:
But Carnival arrived,
And she didn't parade,
I cried on the avenue, I cried.
I didn't think the cabrocha I loved so much was lying.

Chorus:

And she didn't parade,

I didn't think the cabrocha I loved so much was lying.
