Quem dá mais?
Noel Rosa
Who gives more?
Who gives more for a mulatto who is a graduate
In the subject of samba and batucada
With the qualities of a beautiful girl
Flirty, vain, and very deceitful?
Five thousand réis, two hundred thousand réis, one million réis!
Doesn't anyone give more than a million réis?
Vasco pays the lot in potatoes
And instead of cheap
Offers a mulatto to Russinho
Who gives more, for a guitar that plays in falsetto
That only lacks arm, back, and bridge
Belonged to Dom Pedro, lived in the palace
Was put on the nail by José Bonifácio!
Twenty thousand réis, twenty-one and five hundred, fifty thousand réis
Doesn't anyone give more than fifty thousand réis?
Who wins the lot is a Jew
I guarantee it
To sell it for double in the museum
Who gives more, for a samba made in the rules of art
Without introduction and without a second part
It only has a chorus, born in Salgueiro
And expresses two-thirds of Rio de Janeiro
Who gives more? Who gives more, of a million réis?
(Who gives more? Who gives more? I give you one, I give you two, I give you three!)
How much will the auctioneer earn?
Who is also Brazilian
And in three lots sold the entire Brazil?
Who gives more?
