Scarlet Ribbons (for Her Hair)

Fitas Escarlates (para Seu Cabelo)

Scarlet Ribbons (for Her Hair)

Eu espreitei pra dar boa noite e então ouvi minha criança em oraçãoI peeked in to say goodnight and then I heard my child in prayer
Manda pra mim algumas fitas escarlates, fitas escarlates pro meu cabeloSend for me some scarlet ribbons scarlet ribbons for my hair
Todas as lojas estavam trancadas, todas as ruas escuras e vaziasAll the stores were locked and shuttered all the streets were dark and bare
Na nossa cidade, nenhuma fita escarlate, nenhuma fita escarlate pro cabelo delaIn our town no scarlet ribbons no scarlet ribbons for her hair
Durante a noite meu coração doía, bem antes do amanhecer chegarThrough the night my heart was aching just before the dawn was breaking
Eu espreitei e na cama dela, em alegre profusão, estavam láI peeked in and on her bed in gay profusion laying there
Fitas escarlates, fitas escarlates, lindas fitas escarlates pro cabelo delaScarlet ribbons scarlet ribbons pretty scarlet ribbons for her hair
Se eu viver até os cem, nunca vou saber de onde vieramIf I live to be a hundred I will never know from where
Aquelas lindas fitas escarlates, fitas escarlates pro cabelo delaCame those lovely scarlet ribbons scarlet ribbons for her hair
