Juca [English translation]

Juca was apprehended in blazing

As a miscreant

For he danced samba right in front

Of Maria's window

Right in the middle of the enjoyment

The night became day

Its silver moonlight

Became cold rain

His serenade

Didn't awake Maria

Juca was disappointed

He declared to sheriff

That he didn't know if love is crime

Or if samba is sin

In self-defense

He drummed this in the table:

The sheriff bold 1

In the police station

But he never made samba

Never saw Maria

1. 'Bamba' is a slang that even I didn't knew. Old slang. So when I searched for it I discovered two variants: 1. the one who possesses great bravery or 2. the one who possesses great knowledge of something, an expert. As the guy was a sheriff, I preferred to pick up 'bold', but you interpret it as you want!
