Fui Ver o Cigano

Went To See The Gypsy

Fui ver o ciganoWent to see the gypsy,
Hospedado num grande hotelStayin' in a big hotel.
Ele sorriu ao me ver chegarHe smiled when he saw me coming,
E disse “Ora, ora, ora”And he said, "Well, well, well."
Seu quarto estava escuro e cheio de genteHis room was dark and crowded,
As luzes eram baixas e fracasLights were low and dim.
“Como vai? ”, ele me disseHow are you?" he said to me,
E eu disse pra ele tambémI said it back to him.

Desci até o saguãoI went down to the lobby
Fazer uma breve ligaçãoTo make a small call out.
Uma dançarina bonita estava aliA pretty dancing girl was there,
E começou a gritarAnd she began to shout,
“Volte lá pra ver o cigano"Go on back to see the gypsy.
Ele pode te tirar do fundoHe can move you from the rear,
Te arrancar do seu medoDrive you from your fear,
Te trazer através do espelhoBring you through the mirror.
Ele fez isso em Las VegasHe did it in Las Vegas,
E pode fazer aqui”And he can do it here."

Lá fora as luzes brilhavamOutside the lights were shining
No rio de lágrimasOn the river of tears,
Fiquei olhando de longeI watched them from the distance
Com música nos ouvidosWith music in my ears.

Voltei pra ver o ciganoI went back to see the gypsy,
Era quase a auroraIt was nearly early dawn.
A porta do cigano estava escancaradaThe gypsy's door was open wide
Mas o cigano não estava maisBut the gypsy was gone,
E aquela dançarina bonitaAnd that pretty dancing girl,
Não se via mais por láShe could not be found.
Então fiquei olhando aquele sol que raiavaSo I watched that sun come rising
Naquela cidadezinha de MinnesotaFrom that little Minnesota town.
