Oiça Lá Ó Senhor Vinho
Mariza
Listen Up Mr. Wine
Listen up Mr. Wine
Will you answer me, but honestly
Why do you take away all the firmness
From those you meet along your way?
Just because of drinking one too many
Even peaceful people
Friend wine, in disarray
You make them crawl on all fours!
It's bad behavior
And there's intention in what you do
You lose balance
No equilibrium can handle
The laws of Physics fail
And the vertical from any place
Wavers without stopping
And ceases to be perpendicular
I used to be, answers the wine
The leaf dancing in the wind
I was a ray of sunshine in the sky
That brought the grape, sweet affection
I still hold the warmth of the Sun
And so I even give life
I increase the value for anyone
In the right account, weight and measure
And I only harm those
Who judge me as nobody
And belittle me
Who treats me like water
It's an offense, I'll pay for it!
That's just how I am
You are right
And it's ingratitude
To speak ill of wine
And to prove what I say
Let's go, my friend
For another little glass!
