O Mundo Do Circo
Teixeirinha
The Circus World
Today is there marmalade?
Yes sir!!!
Today is there guava paste?
Yes sir!!!
And the clown, what is he?
He's a woman thief!!!
The circus was born with the world
The world was born clown
It's a big top tent
Raised on steel cables
Jumper and trapeze artist
Fruits of the same rope
I know the circus world
Audience, a caveat I make
Artist, united family
In the ring of life
Also has its failure
And the clown, what is he?
He's a woman thief
The clown I emphasize
Is the king of smiles
The clown is the mastaréu
That sets the circus in the square
The frequency of the audiences
Depends on his grace
In the heart of the clown
Sometimes there's a hoax
But with his face painted
Unnoticed he passes
Clown is also a person
His heart also feels
The pain of some misfortune
And the clown, what is he?
He's a woman thief
The clown I emphasize
Is the king of smiles
Each clown is a story
That they carry in their hearts
They tell all except this one
During the show
For me in particular
Some reveal
Because I know a clown
I esteem like a brother
His story saddens me
Only in the ring he forgets
To make the crowd smile
And the clown, what is he?
He's a woman thief
The clown I emphasize
Is the king of smiles
Clown, the circus is your world
The oratory is the dressing room
Your family story
You've already told me
Your daughter is ashamed
To see you painted like this
One day she'll understand you
And see that pride is bad
You are the king of the globe of death
May God give you good luck
Until life ends
And the clown, what is he?
He's a woman thief
And the clown I emphasize
Is the king of smiles.
