Forró de Caruaru

Luiz Gonzaga Luiz Gonzaga

Forró de Caruaru

At the forró of Sá Joaninha
In Caruarú
Compadre Mané Bento
Only you were missing
I've never seen my compadre
Dancing so well
So full of toys,
Of animation
Drinking at the function
We danced without stopping
In a gallop to kill
But until dawn
Because of a damn woman
Who came from Tacaratú
We killed two soldiers
Four privates and a sergeant
Compadre Mané Bento
Only you were missing
My brother Jisuino
Got stuck with a black woman
Cuddled by a brave
And belligerent guy
I saw that the confusion
Wouldn't take long to start
As the guy with a knife
With a killer face
Went after Jisuino
The commotion was set
We killed two soldiers
Four privates and a sergeant
Compadre Mané Bento
Only you were missing
For the Doctor Delegate
Who arrived grumpy
I said that in that
Big confusion
There were only a few scratches
But the guy who died
In that hot weather
Has tough meat
The old man mocked the talk
I fled from Caruarú
We killed two soldiers
Four privates and a sergeant
Compadre Mané Bento
Only you were missing
