O Peru

The Turkey

O Peru

Glu! Glu! Glu!Glu! Glu! Glu!
Make way for the turkey!Abram alas pro peru!

The turkey went for a walkO peru foi a passeio
Thinking it was a peacockPensando que era pavão
The sparrow laughed so muchTico-tico riu-se tanto
That it died of congestionQue morreu de congestão

The turkey dances in a circleO peru dança de roda
In a circle of coalNuma roda de carvão
When it's over, it gets dizzyQuando acaba fica tonto
Almost falling to the groundDe quase cair no chão

The turkey saw itself one dayO peru se viu um dia
In the waters of the streamNas águas do ribeirão
It kept looking at itself, kept sayingFoi-se olhando, foi dizendo
What a beauty of a peacockQue beleza de pavão

It went to sleep and had a dreamFoi dormir e teve um sonho
As soon as the sun hidLogo que o sol se escondeu
That its tail had colorsQue sua cauda tinha cores
Like that of its friendComo a desse amigo seu
