Luis Mariano "Marrequinha" lyrics

Translation to:enit

Marrequinha

Marrequinha, MarrequinhaAttention, l’amour te guetteLes folies sont vite faitesQuand on a le cœur en fête

Marrequinha, MarrequinhaMéfie-toi des clairs de lunePrends garde aux yeux qui s’allumentEn admirant ta peau brune

Dans le village, le bruit court que l’on t’a vuePlus d’une fois rêver près du vieux pont, la nuit venueEt l’on dit même que ta robe si légèreComme un blanc papillon volait gaiement sous le ciel clair

À ta maman qui te grondait, tu as souriEn lui disant «J’allais cueillir les fleurs dans la prairie»Mais tu mentais car ton visage et tes prunellesN’avaient pas seulement la timide couleur du ciel

Marrequinha, MarrequinhaAttention, l’amour te guetteLes folies sont vite faitesQuand on a le cœur en fête

Marrequinha, MarrequinhaMéfie-toi des clairs de lunePrends garde aux yeux qui s’allumentEn admirant ta peau brune

On t’a surprise entre les bras d’un beau garçonEt tu as dû, mon Dieu, le présenter à la maisonTu avais peur de ton papa, très en colèreMais ta maman a dit «On le marie et tout est clair»

Ce fut un jour plein de soleil et de bonheurLes musiciens jouaient sur une estrade dans les fleursEt quand, le soir, tu le suivis vers sa demeureEn te voyant partir, tout le pays reprit en chœur :

Marrequinha, MarrequinhaAttention, l’amour te guetteFais-lui vite une risetteEt tu feras sa conquête

Marrequinha, MarrequinhaDeux bras forts au loin t’emportentTu n’as plus besoin d’escorteCar le bonheur t’ouvre ses portes !

Marrequinha

Marrequinha, MarrequinhaBeware, love is waiting for youThe crazinesses are quickly doneWhen we have our heart in party

Marrequinha, MarrequinhaBe wary of moonlightsBe careful of eyes that igniteAdmiring your brown skin

In the village, the rumor runs that one saw youMore than once dreaming near the old bridge, at night fallAnd one even says that your so thin dressFlew joyfully under the clear sky like a white butterfly

At your mother who scolded you, you smiledSaying to her "I was picking flowers in the meadow."But you were lying because your face and eyesDidn't have only the shy color of the sky

Marrequinha, MarrequinhaBeware, love is waiting for youThe crazinesses are quickly doneWhen we have our heart in party

Marrequinha, MarrequinhaBe wary of moonlightsBe careful of eyes that igniteAdmiring your brown skin

One surprised you in the arms of a beautiful boyAnd you had, my God, to introduce him at homeYou were afraid of your dad, very angryBut your mum said "We marry him and all is clear."

It was a day full of sun and happinessMusicians were playing on a stage in the flowersAnd when, the evening, you followed him in his houseSeeing you going, all the country said in chorus:

Marrequinha, MarrequinhaBeware, love is waiting for youSmile quickly at himAnd you'll make your conquest

Marrequinha, MarrequinhaTwo strong arms take you awayYou don't need an escort anymoreCause happiness open its gate to you !
