Pode sambar, pode esquecer
You can samba, you can forget
Na orgia a sua vida até amanhecer
In the orgy, your life till dawn
Pode girar, enlouquecer
You can spin, go crazy
Madrugada afora na batida
Through the early hours with the beat
Cedo ou tarde, chova ou faça sol
Sooner or later, rain or shine
Sopre o sudoeste, sopre o terral
Blow from the southwest, blow from the land
Brisa leve, temporal
Gentle breeze, storm
O meu coração, 42 graus
My heart, 42 degrees
Não tem pressa, rave ou carnaval
No rush, rave or carnival
Se te pego pra dançar
If I catch you to dance
Você nunca mais me larga
You will never let me go again
Technova, tcha-tcha-tcha
Technova, tcha-tcha-tcha
Você não vai escapar
You won't escape
Pode espalhar sua beleza
You can spread your beauty
Que o meu desejo hoje é só certeza
Because my desire today is just certainty
Desafiar a natureza
To challenge nature
Abandonando o corpo entre carrapetas
Leaving the body among the spins
Vai desfilar sua leveza
You'll showcase your lightness
Na escuridão da pista, na batida
In the darkness of the dance floor, to the beat
Cedo ou tarde, chova ou faça sol
Sooner or later, rain or shine
Sopre o sudoeste, sopre o terral
Blow from the southwest, blow from the land breeze
Brisa leve, temporal
Gentle breeze, stormy weather
O meu coração, 42 graus
My heart, 42 degrees
Não tem pressa, rave ou Carnaval
There's no rush, rave or Carnival
Se eu te levo pra dançar
If I take you to dance
Nunca mais você me larga
You'll never let me go
Drum n' bossa, Ijexá
Drum n' bossa, Ijexá
Não me escapa!
Don't let me slip away!
