Went To See The Gypsy

Fui Ver o Cigano

Went To See The Gypsy

Fui ver o cigano
Went to see the gypsy,
Hospedado num grande hotel
Stayin' in a big hotel.
Ele sorriu ao me ver chegar
He smiled when he saw me coming,
E disse “Ora, ora, ora”
And he said, "Well, well, well."
Seu quarto estava escuro e cheio de gente
His room was dark and crowded,
As luzes eram baixas e fracas
Lights were low and dim.
“Como vai? ”, ele me disse
How are you?" he said to me,
E eu disse pra ele também
I said it back to him.

Desci até o saguão
I went down to the lobby
Fazer uma breve ligação
To make a small call out.
Uma dançarina bonita estava ali
A pretty dancing girl was there,
E começou a gritar
And she began to shout,
“Volte lá pra ver o cigano
"Go on back to see the gypsy.
Ele pode te tirar do fundo
He can move you from the rear,
Te arrancar do seu medo
Drive you from your fear,
Te trazer através do espelho
Bring you through the mirror.
Ele fez isso em Las Vegas
He did it in Las Vegas,
E pode fazer aqui”
And he can do it here."

Lá fora as luzes brilhavam
Outside the lights were shining
No rio de lágrimas
On the river of tears,
Fiquei olhando de longe
I watched them from the distance
Com música nos ouvidos
With music in my ears.

Voltei pra ver o cigano
I went back to see the gypsy,
Era quase a aurora
It was nearly early dawn.
A porta do cigano estava escancarada
The gypsy's door was open wide
Mas o cigano não estava mais
But the gypsy was gone,
E aquela dançarina bonita
And that pretty dancing girl,
Não se via mais por lá
She could not be found.
Então fiquei olhando aquele sol que raiava
So I watched that sun come rising
Naquela cidadezinha de Minnesota
From that little Minnesota town.
