Ye Auld Triangle

O Velho Triângulo

Ye Auld Triangle

Uma fome danadaA hungry feeling
Veio me pegar de surpresaCame o'er me stealing
E os ratos estavam chiandoAnd the mice were squeeling
Na minha celaIn my prison cell
E aquele velho triângulo fazia barulhoAnd that auld triangle went jingle-jangle
Ao longo das margens do Canal RealAll along the banks of the Royal Canal

Oh! Pra começar a manhãOh! To start the morning
O carcereiro gritandoThe warden bawling
"Levanta dessa cama, seu! E limpa sua cela!""Get up out of bed, you! And Clean out your cell!"
E aquele velho triângulo fazia barulhoAnd that auld triangle went jingle-jangle
Ao longo das margens do Canal RealAll along the banks of the Royal Canal

Oh! o segurança estava espiandoOh! the screw was peeping
E o cara estava dormindoAnd the loike was sleeping
Enquanto ele choravaAs he lay weeping
Por sua garota SalFor his girl Sal
E aquele velho triângulo fazia barulhoAnd that auld triangle went jingle-jangle
Ao longo das margens do Canal RealAll along the banks of the Royal Canal

Numa bela noite de primaveraOn a fine Spring evening
O cara sonhavaThe loike lay dreaming
E as gaivotas voavamAnd the sea-gulls were wheeling
Altas acima do muroHigh above the wall
E aquele velho triângulo fazia barulhoAnd that auld triangle went jingle-jangle
Ao longo das margens do Canal RealAll along the banks of the Royal Canal

Oh! o vento suspiravaOh! the wind was sighing
E o dia estava acabandoAnd the day was dying
Enquanto o cara choravaAs the loike lay crying
Na sua celaIn his prison cell
E aquele velho triângulo fazia barulhoAnd that auld triangle went jingle-bloody-jangle
Ao longo das margens do Canal RealAll along the banks of the Royal Canal

Na prisão femininaIn the women's prison
Tem setenta mulheresThere are seventy women
E eu gostaria de estar com elasAnd I wish it was with them
Que eu morasseThat I did dwell
Então aquele velho triângulo poderia fazer barulhoThen that auld triangle could go jingle-jangle
Ao longo das margens do Canal RealAll along the banks of the Royal Canal
