Lavadeira do Rio [English translation]
Lavadeira do Rio [English translation]
Oh! The laundress from the river
So many sheets to wash
There is still one skirt left
And then the soap is over
Anyways, run to seashore
And see the sea foam shining
Hear the angry noise
Coming from the waves crashing on the seaside
(Hear the angry noise
Coming from the waves crashing on the seaside)
[Chrous:] [x2]
Hey, ho, the wind blew
Hey, ho, the leaf fell
Hey, ho, where’s my love?
The night has come and it’s cold
Hey, Rita, get away from the window
Let this guy pass by
Ladies that are not rich, but beautiful
Must watch over themselves all the time
Hey, Rita, get away from the window
Because the ladies in here
Don’t remain damsel for a long time
And are not meant to wedding
(Don’t remain damsel for a long time
And are not meant to wedding)
[Chorus x2]
Oh! The laundress from the river
So many sheets to wash
There is still one skirt left
When the soap is over
Anyways, run to seashore
And see the sea foam shining
Hear the angry noise
Coming from the waves crashing on the seaside
[Chorus x4]
Hey, Rita, get away from the window!
Oh! The laundress from the river
So many sheets to wash!
