Laiá Laiá

Let's put
A dunce hat on the king's head
Leave the sadness in the corner and go out
To drum on Rio Branco at six

Let's sing
Musty glories of any Braguinha
Samba in the street crossing (someone left)
So it's left, don't stand there, that's the law
I'll paint a prettier place
To hold my festival
When carnival is over, when carnival is over

Let's dance
Anything is better
Than sadness, please
Forget it

I'll create a hidden place
To hold my recital
When carnival is over, when carnival is over
When this uproar is over

Lalaiá, laiá, laiá, laiá, laiá, laiá, laiá
Lalaiá, laiá, laiá, laiá, laiá, laiá, laiá
